You can draw unemployment if you quit too... you can draw partial unemployment if you get another job and it only pays part of what your last did... I spend a good portion of my time fighting these claims. We had a girl still working for us and file unemployment on us. Crazy stuff our government does to reward non workers.

Doesnt that vary by state? Maybe something to look into. Like I said we can live just fine on wife's income so any extra could support my addiction (hobby) lmao

I'm betting that that "drying rack" is really for you.........

so that when you come home covered with mud and your wife won't let you in the house until your clothes are off and you need a place to hang your muddy attire.

@Delton I tried mine a couple times this weekend playing with it and it cools about 10+ degrees every 2 min at idle. I've seen it cool as much as 27 when hot, this weekend it was much cooler out but saw 21 deg cool and this is at the front of the seat.
Have nothing to compare it too but those are my numbers here's a clip I took.

Nope. She has broken 2 racks so far with all that laundry she does. So I stepped in. She won't break this one.

So she makes you get undressed outside and just stand there naked,
with your clothes in your hands with no place to hang them up for hosing off?

Can you take a pic showing exactly where yours is located? Where it's pointed exactly and how far from motor? They have a wide path of air so direction wouldn't have to be too precise. I'm just trying to eliminate everything but build quality.

I believe it does vary by state. In MI. if you quit or you're fired, there is a 13 week penalty, meaning you won't draw sh** for that long and a claim only gives you 20 weeks total. You also have to apply at two places a week to be eligible. Too many people rode it for all they could back when the bubble popped, now they just want you back to work.

Tn doesn't have a waiting period like that I know. You can draw for so long then file for extension IF you have enough in the bank (meaning you've paid out of your weekly paychecks). You can literally run out of unemployment benefits. I ain't worried about it cause i won't need it. I work for a living. Don't see that changing for another 13 years or so.

And sensor is mounted at the front of the seat in the cabin not even underneath so that's showing cabin cooling you'll notice it to the left of the lower mount

That's great! Delton miles are rough. Your odometer should be like 5000 for normal use.

We need an equation that converts Bull Run miles to regular miles. It would be like 1 to 3 I think. Or more if you're towing a popo


CP: I've been saying that since that jack wagon was picking Legos from his turds:)

Y'all hearing this even before my wife does (cause I loves you guys!).
I may be staying at Nissan . Was just offered either 2nd or 3rd shift during the week. Four 10hr shifts. Off Fri, sat, sun. I'm at least giving it a shot. Off on weekends to ride with the rest of you boys!!! I can still ride with Donfather too on occasion.
