    Today's Ride

    Central NJ. A 16 mile loop in a 1600 acre preserve, it's the only ride I've ever posted pics from in this thread. The loop starts at my house. I've probably ridden it 1000 times in 5 years. Those are trees to replace ash and other species impacted by invasive species. The tubes keep deer...

    Building a House with Wood

    Did you use the "snow rails" or the individual "snow birds?"

    Building a House with Wood

    This was an exceptional year. Two months of cold left a lot of snow on top, and then the rain made it very heavy. When the upper roof avy'd on to the lower, it shook the entire building. Like two weeks after it happened the crew was still talking about it. The odd thing was that even though...

    Building a House with Wood

    Some guy on YouTube 🤠 said use at least 1 1/4" so you could hit it with a leaf blower and the stone would stay put.

    Building a House with Wood

    Are they fairly foolproof? Like they always prevent a big slide? How do I figure out the likelyhood of total snowfall exceeding the roof's capacity for weight?

    That's a drip path. What did he use for stone?

    Building a House with Wood

    It there were gutters this year, they'd be on the ground. I suffered some roof damage on the lower roof. Need to add snow stoppers (what are they called?) to the upper roof.

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    No idea. I change my oil every 10k, and that's basically it. Cars last until I sell (and beyond I'm sure) about 150k.

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    I'll keep it for 3 years, with the factory warrantee. Hopefully it is up to the task.

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    Honda has a good lumbar in the CRV. I guess the cost of a better interior is $700 per service, plus the cost endless belts sensors and fluids. If you value the VW interior so highly, I guess you gotta live with it. I've had 5 CRVs, the only unscheduled repair was an alternator on one of them...

    What make is an all track? Buy one of the brands Camp mentioned instead.

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    The Y is a sedan. When I was comparing cost ($40,000) above I was using an SUV or truck. For me, it doesn't work, yet.

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    I need to understand this. My Honda cost about $200 a year in maintenance (2 oil changes). Tires and brakes of course. But both hybrid and EV use them. $1800 in gas is about 50 fill ups, so that seems right as a skier racking up miles. (CRV numbers). How much per year for electric? I'll...

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    This is still a lot, for a new or used car. I'm not an early adapter, I have never been. I have always embraced advancements that are one gen behind. I've said it before, the world needs early adapters to move ahead. Think of the original Prius, not the Egghead Gen 2 everyone thinks of, but...

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    I checked out this: https://www.caranddriver.com/rivian/r1t It is pretty compelling. With the big battery it could work for me. But it's $70,000. The Mav is $36k and I'm getting $24 for my CRV. Right now, those numbers work for me. Any chance prices are dropping or are there plans for a...

    ICE v Electric: Cost and Emissions

    For a Ford it seem decent enough. The size is right. I'm more disappointed in Toyota for: • Making the Tacoma too big • Taking forever to introduce the Stout
