Now to teach her how to trailer the 5th wheel.

That 6.7 is a nice power monster towing!
Love mine, doesn't care if she's loaded or not.

I've been eyeing up a 4 amp battery charger at HFT for charging up the quad's battery..... its $38.... been looking for a 20% off coupon so I can run bye and grab one, but I have not seen a flyer or 20% coupon forever. Got HFT's 'black friday' email ad the other day and lo and behold, they have that charger on sale for $28!!! Looks like I'm gonna make a run out to HF this weekend!

Pretty excited to pick this one up.... I've been using an older HF 1.5 amp three stage charger for the past 7-8 years, but I think its lost one or two stages out of it.... time to give up on that $15 charger. This one is pretty sweet with a built in volt meter so I don't have to have my multi meter hooked up too. I think that the 4 amps will work to recondition/desulfate a car battery too --- that was beyond the ability of the 1.5 amp model.

I'm pretty excited you're going to support the Chinese too, just to save a nickel /s

Bet you can find a good American made one at a comparable price at an estate or yard sale. Uyghurs everywhere will thank you. And maybe, just maybe, American manufacture will become just that more attractive.

Piss off you virtue signaling sjw..... :bigsmile:
This is the one that I've really been wanting for the last 8 years, but its $$$ and still made in 'asia' and only 2 amps -- the 2/4/8 is almost 2x the price and the 1.5 amp on is still $$.
I've still got my old school 'Clip Light' 10 amp charger that going on 30+ years now --- but even that was made in canada. I feel bad hooking up a 10 amp charger to a 12 amphr battery....

Just because its 10 amps, doesn't mean it going to charge ta ten amps. Your batteries internal resistance/amount of drain will determine how man amps it will/can draw.

Your not going to desulphate with a little 4 amp charger.
You need a good ol school jump box to cook them plates off.

Been using Brave for a couple months..

Turned on their 'make money from sending you ads' crap.. and maxed out the ad rate.. Which puts a tiny ad in the corner that pops up once in a while that I all but ignore... completely random, and doesn't track what I'm doing, ie no targeted ads.

Got almost $65 so far, from my normal surfing..

Took a road trip to Colorado Springs to see Dragonman’s military museum. If you’re not familiar with him, check him out on you tube.

He has over 1400 uniforms, 140 working vehicles and countless working firearms.

His museum has displays from the Revolutionary War all the way through Desert Storm.

My step son is a history buff so took him and my wife there today.

Dang, Kelley! That's hard to top!

So . . . was it all that? As good as it would appear to be?

Very cool Kelley. I'm into WW1 and WW2, Korea and Vietnam history.
That's a bucket list item for me, to visit that place!

Yes! It was definitely worth the 1500 miles one way.

I failed to mention he has a gun shop, builds guns, has a shooting range and hosts full auto shoots.

Also has a dirt bike track, paintball area. And just bought the neighboring 80 acres to expand.

He’s spent 30 years putting together this collection. Over 7 million dollars spent on just the museum.
He drives around in an army jeep with a functioning .50 cal mounted on top.

I highly recommend watching his videos. He goes into great detail.

We plan to go again, I’ll fly into Denver next time. We just wanted an excuse for a road trip this time.
