    lol, yup GT3 will need to wait.  Between horses, college, and houses, my mid-life crisis keeps getting put off!!

    Honestly though, pretty excited to help him.  Now he has an asset and with 2 roommates mortgage will be mostly covered.  Dorm room costs are outrageous down here, so this was a "cheaper" option.

    Yes my uncle did that for his family . My cousin became landlord and super at 18.  Between his kids they used it for a rental property. Always a rental market within biking distance of campus.

    I hear you there.   Being done with 1 college tuition, 1 wedding (saving for daughter #2 for both) an upcoming vehicle for daughter #2 and a grandson coming next week my mid life crisis has dwindled down to Ft Worth Craft Beer (y’all can figure that one out) and the Ford Raptor I planned is now a generator.   

    One day I guess…

    There are wifi applications for phones to use over Data. I have one for my work that allows me to use my office desk phone from my iPhone over data (or wifi). M$ teams also has phone options.

    The starlink router likely has wifi, or you add a WAP. then your phone is on the starlink sat network and bob's your sat phone.
    Understood, I do get the differences, I can get internet on my phone or phone on my internet and I have several ways to place calls over internet. Buy-in is very similar, booster is free after that and starlink is $50/month for 50Gb and $150 for unlimited. Only the booster works while driving, with the exception starlink says you can use one of them at speeds under what is useful to me.

    We have a battery+ store here and they didn't bat an eye when we went in for a new battery, good thing because we have one for the house too.  Likewise for the thermo-works timer too which we use a whole lot more than the thermo -pops

    Brown 7 ‘ offset disc. 



    Unbelievable what that cost now. 12 years ago it was 1,000 bucks plus tax. Today it’s just shy of 7,000.

    I did do some looking. Found a 10’ Long brand that I really wanted. It was a pull type to boot. However it was just to far away. 
    With that said I really need a disc now so I bit the bullet on the Brown. 
    On a separate note, I would love a JD 210 in good condition. Especially for that price 👍

    Cell phone booster for truck and camper. Probably going to order a weboost, if anyone has any experience or insight, would love to hear.

    My buddy works for we boost, he runs an antenna line in UT.  Got my inlaws one for there RV but they wouldn’t let me install it and I moved away.  The car system my friend had was awesome we would use it all the time out mountain biking in known dead zones.  I’m going to get one for our travel trailer I just haven’t pulled the plug yet,

    Thanks.  I got the drive reach overland.  The reach seems to have the highest amplification and the overland just has the antenna and mount that I wanted. I'm going to buy a second set of outside and inside antennas and cabling so I can have a truck setup and a trailer setup and just move the amp when needed need to.

    After years of waiting, I finally pulled the trigger on a Suhr. Custom Classic S, with a lot of features I had been wanting. For any guitarheads out there, this one’s got a flame maple roasted neck as well as a roasted alder body. Green sparkle body that looks different in different lighting. Guitar is a one off, commissioned by the shop. 



    Awesome guitar and green is my favorite color! Those loop station pedals are how I made money in high school haha.

    You built them, or repaired them?

    I am not really a pedal guy. U have a good assortment.l, but generally prefer just a low wattage amp cranked up high. 

    Do you play?

    I played. I used to have the double loop station pedal and a Line 6 loop in series that made some nice what we called poly rhythms. Delay and Reverb pedals were the best. I stopped playing a long time ago now. Wish I still did, that’s a PM discussion though.

    Very nice,  I love the roasted flame neck - looks like you could use a new acoustic?   I have been using loopers since the boomerang

    I had no idea you no longer can buy a hand gun in Canada!  Canada is a huge country, a guy in the Yukon can't buy a pistol for bear protection?

    Thank goodness!!  Now we don’t need to worry about an invasion from Canada.

    Nope not anymore, if you have one you can keep it but nobody can buy one anymore. And if you forget to re new your license they take the gun right away.

    That is really unfortunate. I can understand banning in certain cites or boroughs but like I said Canada is a big place. Anyway enjoy your .45
