    NFR F150 & Ecoboost

    Rock solid ride and craftsmanship. That sounds like a 7.3 rig.

    NFR F150 & Ecoboost

    I'm mechanical and understand the benefits of repairable tech. I'm basically ungovernable in that manner. New trucks are for people that don't get what's happening. I could pay cash tomorrow for the new rig if my choice. I won't cause it's a bad deal. I will not own Apple, John Deere, Tesla...

    NFR F150 & Ecoboost

    Run daily driver tunes and you're fine. The real benefit imho is the transmission shift programming. I have one. No regrets. I run an 80hp tune and drive conservatively. It's worth an extra 2 mpg.

    NFR F150 & Ecoboost

    In the quest for Eco we made stuff that shifts way too much and fails. We were sold this stuff as eco but it's really planned failure to get you back to the dealership for another one.

    NFR F150 & Ecoboost

    Do both turbos. I own a 3.5 with 160k on it. Did turbos at 100k. One failed the other didn't look great. Mine is a 14 with a 6 speed. If I could go back I would have got the V8. You don't spend much more if any in fuel and gain longevity. Boosted motors don't last forever. That is unless it's...

    NFR Alcohol going out of style

    The digital age has reduced dating to mechanics and an algorithm. Maybe that's why alcohol is going out of style. No need to drink too socially lubricate awkward interaction between the sexes when you simply swipe right. It's not for me. I couldn't imagine meeting someone for a pre arranged...

    NFR Alcohol going out of style

    That would be great. I don't see it happening though. The physical aspects of opiate addiction are so hardwired into human biology. Couple that with a big pharma push and an attitude in the medical world that basically says living in better through creative chemistry and you get what we got. I...

    NFR Alcohol going out of style

    There are lots of people walking around with a dependence on substance of some form and considered "normal" or "healthy". I'm British by lineage and come from an American drinking town. It took a minute to realize what was accepted was actually pretty involved alcoholism. I've drank with...

    NFR Alcohol going out of style

    A whole bunch of folded up zombies on the streets of Aberdeen. Really a sight leadership can be proud of around the first of the month. Fantastic performance art. Yes, I think I've lost about all sympathy for human kind.

    NFR Alcohol going out of style

    I actually really like alcohol in moderate use. It makes stupid people so much more tolerable and interesting. But I honestly barely drink much anymore. I don't miss it and I feel generally great as I always have. I'm not off the booze completely but I'm definitely occupying the "very light...

    NFR The Windows 11 Exodus - An Evan "tech help" rant

    If it works well it must be eliminated or bloated with AI/Adware. Microsoft developer.....probably

    NFR The Windows 11 Exodus - An Evan "tech help" rant

    I fully hate windows 11 and Microsoft since anything after 7. 11 is a complete piece of shit. Deletion of a simple file is time consuming and the fan on the machine never stops. This will be what makes me move to a Linux system. Why do some companies have the ability to innovate, get a great...

    Fly Fishing Elitism?

    . I'm just honestly completely sick of praising or accepting mediocrity as equal to excellence in life and fishing. This whole diversity and all things are equally valid thing is bullshit. Some people are better than others, it's a fact. If you want to be better work at it. Participation...

    Fly Fishing Elitism?

    Fascinating behavior! And look there, that one of fashioning a rod holder out of an old leaf spring, a beer can and some copper wire! This will likely cause a dispute with the skinny one over the wire. I honestly give plunkers a pass. They are generally older less mobile fellas occupying a...

    Fly Fishing Elitism?

    Anytime. You can find this type of content and more discerning thoughts about how every person doesn't deserve a participation trophy or tolerance on my Myspace page and my area in The Museum of Tolerance.

    Fly Fishing Elitism?

    First off it's fisherMAN. Second, get a grip. There are levels and ranks is the world for good reason. I don't wish to share the same Pallmall stained air as the bait maggots breath. They stink. Your comparison to racism is pure comedy. They chose to be lesser than by fishing in the simpletons...
