RE: Bluetooth speaker for TV
Well I got the device that Shastagary suggested. It pairs with my speaker. The optical output is set to PCM (the only option) I even tried the RCA audio out of the Dish box and its optical out still no sound from my speaker. The Samsung TV has a Blue Tooth option but it and my speaker cant find each other

RE: First tow with new 2019 Ram 3500 and ...disappointed.
Does the Dodge have an anti trailer sway option. Ford has one and if it detects the trailer swaying it applies the trailer brakes. And dont ask me how it works I have no clue

Bluetooth speaker for TV
I have a Samsung HDR 50" series 6. It does not have any audio out put jacks. I went to the secret menu and enabled some thing and now it has a bluetooth option in the reg menue, but couldnt get it to pair with my speaker. The TV has a digital audio out jack. Was wondering if one of those interfaces that is a bluetooth transmitter with digital audio in would work

RE: Is anyone here into surf fishing?
That sounds fun but I don't know if I have the skills for it.
Not many skills required. Just bait the hook walk into the water waist deep and cast it as far as you can. Sit back and wait for a hit. Any way that's how my wife and I would do it. I baited the hook cast it and she did the rest

RE: Nevada 15
I read that Nevada has a quarantine on people entering from another state. Is it possible to drive on 15 from California to Utah? Does anyone have knowledge of a site that is up to date on state quarantine rules.
Thank you!
Where did you read that

RE: New Truck 4x4 or 4x2 ??
Two wheel drive is great if you
Live in the flat lands
Live where there is no snow
Never leave the pavement
Don't travel much
Otherwise you need 4wd. Then you can get stuck in worse places.
I wouldnt have a 2WD so I always tell people, like you said a 4WD will just get you stuck farther from the the highway

RE: Used diesel, anyway to tell if it's been chipped?
My first suggestion would be get one with dual rear wheels. Makes the truck much more stable in wind and being passed by big trucks. I owned one SRW for less than a year, enough of blowing around. I never regretted having a diesel either they run forever.
That old 2000 SRW F-350 I had the wind blew it around empty. The 2019 SRW F-350 I have is pretty stable. I can tell it is windy but it doesnt blow me all over the road

RE: Used diesel, anyway to tell if it's been chipped?
I had a 2000 7.3 diesel. I put a Banks chip in it when it had 30,000 miles on it and sold it when it had 250,000 miles and it never had any problems
Same with my Father's 2001 7.3L and that now has over 300k and my brothers old 2010 CTD that he sold to a friend who was a fishing guide using it to tow his boat 160 miles to the coast just about every weekend and now has over 350k on it.
With many of today's diesels, the emissions equipment does more harm to the engine through oil/fuel dilution from regens and soot buildup from the EGR than a tune will and in many cases a tune will eliminate or reduce these problems dramatically. As long as the previous owner was not an idiot that towed heavy on a high powered tune or did not add any supporting mods(built trans, upgraded intercooler/turbo, head studs, lift pump/filter, etc...) to allow them to reliably run the higher power tunes, then I would not be afraid of a tuned diesel.
It is also worth mentioning that not all tuning is the same either. Some software like EFILive is better than others because they allow for more parameters while still keeping stock safeguards. Some software like H&S that allowed the end user to change some of the parameters(timing, duration, boost, etc) was dangerous in the hands of a consumer who did not know what they were doing, and blown head gaskets were common for people running these tuners. Having reputable tuning software from a tuner that knows what he is doing makes a world of a difference in how your truck handles certain power increases. In many cases, software like EFILive made the tables better and smoother than the stock tunes that are made to meet emissions above all else even at the cost of reliability in many cases.
You can read more into what I am talking about here(LINK)
Good post! Unfortunately, in most places, you can’t (legally) delete the EGR systems. “Deleting” the EGR system will make your diesel live a longer, happier life....and helps keep more money in your wallet! memtb
Fortunately the 7.3 didnt have any of that **** on them

RE: Register M/H in Calif
I would try to keep it registered in Az.--Ca. fees are extremely high as you probably know.
Not true. AZ registration fees are almost twice as high as Ca's. I moved from CA to AZ and my vehicle registration fees practically doubled.
Really? give examples

The markets are as much to blame for the empty shelf's in the stores.
They should have limited the number of the same idem.
No one needs to buy 5 cases of TP that means 4 other people have to go without

RE: Recovering from rotator cuff surgery...what to expect?
I was in a sling for 4 weeks and on a 24/7 hour ice pack. Was told I could not pick up anything not even a coffee cup. They should teach you how to take the sling off and on. You will need help in the shower. I spent the first 6 weeks sleeping in my recliner. DO THE THERAPY ALL OF IT and some of the stretching is hell but worth it in the end. It was 6 months before they would let me swing a golf club. Once fully recovered and it takes almost a year to get all of your strength back, you should be 100% able to do anything. You might have those thoughts at first not to do something but as you gain confidence you will be fine.
