I am going to head over to a friend's house in the morning to help him put a lift kit on his Tesla Y before he heads out of town for a couple months for his annual trip to Antarctica.
If the panel you got came with a “green screw”, DO NOT install that screw through the insulated neutral bus (the neutral bus bar that is mounted on a plastic insulated base). If you do you will then connect the neutral bus, even though it is mounted to an insulated plastic base, to ground (the box) because the screw will thread into threads on the metal box, thereby grounding that neutral bus. If that is done, you have now undone the isolation between the neutral bus and the ground wire bus and box. There should be instructions about the use of the “green grounding screw”. But in short, DO NOT use it anywhere in a sub panel.
One more thing, 6/3 copper wire is typically good for 50 amps but if your wire run is too long the wire must be downgraded to 40 amps. I can’t remember exactly the wire run length when you have to downgrade to 40 amps but I seem to remember once your wire run is more than 100 feet you have to consider downgrading. Again, I can’t remember the exact length.

Antarctica, well if you want to make Alaska seem like the tropics, that’s a good place to go. Unless global warming has changed that place, I remember reading years ago, that Antarctica is the coldest place on Earth. Even hot coffee there isn’t hot.

In my 330, you had to be going too fast for the turn to get the rear wheels out, and even then, the stability control made an immediate correction. No way you were getting the rear end loose on dry roads, via the throttle.

The run would up being much shorter than I expected. I had ordered 75 feet and wound up with about 20 left over. Supposed to be good for 60 amps, from what I’ve read. Regardless, I’ll never be pulling anywhere near that.

I do like the idea of trying something completely different than anything I’ve had before, particularly when the Mustang has been somewhat of a passion of mine since I was basically a kid. So…we’ll see. A lot of this is driven by the ambitious pricing of the Integra Type S. Personally, I think Honda and Acura both took what happened over the past couple years with extreme mark-ups on things like the Type R and built it into the MSRP…except the market is changing.
The Type R started in the $30k’s, then crept up to the $40k’s and now sits at $45k MSRP. And the Type S is $7k more than that. I think the buyers are intelligent enough to start considering the competition that can be had in the $50k’s. On most of these forums, the posters often bring up the M240i as an obvious option. A lightly used M2 Comp isn’t gonna be much more than that Integra.
It kinda makes me sad how Honda and Acura have made these great vehicles so much less accessible.

And the Corvette would be straight MSRP on an order. There’s some temptation, but even at MSRP it’s not exactly cheap. I think I’d be looking at somewhere around $80k.

Just read Ram is dropping the 5.7 Hemi V8 after 2023. There is a new inline 6 called the Hurricane coming.

My first car was a Stang but none since. I had to have the door hinge welded after a couple years so I don’t really have a soft spot for them…😂
I was seeing C8 for under MSRP before the strike. I wonder if my Wrangler has gone up in value?

It is already here. That’s what you’ll find in the Wagoneers. Or at least the L version like we had ordered a while back

Oh didn’t realize that. I wonder if that what was in the Wagoneer I rented. It moved along very well.

Ok… where the heck did the post about lifting a Tesla go? Meant to come back later to address and I now can’t seem to find it. ANYWAY… I find that very surprising. Never occurred to me it would even have a simple enough suspension to do such a thing. And do you have to a monthly subscription to keep it lifted, or …?

So I had found a good deal on a Colorado at a dealership network I typically avoid. It is a ‘20 with mileage in the teens for $28k. I had reached out and gotten the usual assault of emails, texts, and phone calls. Unfortunately, with the weather and intra-house nagging, I couldn’t get over there. Good thing because they raised the price $1300. Maybe they got too many inquiries or just realized it was too good of a deal for their liking.

Kinda explains why you typically avoid that dealership network.

Vermont is quite beautiful for those of you who have never been:

I think Hoovie should buy it sight unseen and then let the Car Wizard do a post-purchase inspection on it.
probably fast though.

We were going to run over for a weekend trip this month but didn't end up happening. Maybe in early November if the weather holds! might just be 1 day though since we are only about 45 minutes from VT.
CT, that is like 3 different states depending on which part you are in.
trying to remember what states I missed. And where the Mississippi is! I think I missed KY, OH, WV and Indiana. Illinois, PA, all the southern coast (SC, NC, GA, VA) and NE states I got.

Not cheap enough, but close. Only one at auction to judge against, which had 55k miles and sold for $56k. Figure a generous bump for mileage would put this one at $60k auction and $65k retail. Cut that in half for salvage title to arrive at $32.5k.
