    Race to an EV truck - skin in the game edition

    Pickup truck loading

    Nah that's nothing do it. You're not over loaded till your rear tires are touching your fender wells and your front tires get real real light. Worse case, watch them load, if it starts looking sketch have them stop and come back for the rest. Come to Mississippi and see how trucks drive around...

    Kissimmee or Orlando exec

    Thanks! I've called Kissimmee and actually winter haven. I'm not concerned with ads-d or the bravo but winter haven only going to cost 5 bucks a night and $5 a gallon for FS. So I may go there and have to drive an extra 20 mins. Will see...but Kissimmee is a strong second! Keep it coming!

    V-Tail gear-up at DVT

    I do touch and goes in my bonanza V35. The flap lever is shaped completely different than the round gear handle AND I have to reach for the gear handle. The flap lever is super close. Would be hard to miss that in a later model bonanza. Earlier ones with the piano keys can be a huge problem as...

    [N/A] Using a property as an AirBnB

    We have long term rentals and an airbnb all in our home town (small town MS). The Airbnb is the way to go, we cash flow over a grand in a month on it vs 200 per door on the long term. We manage ourselves and we both work full time so it's doable. If I had one far away I'd still manage it, emails...

    Steak Sauce

    No steak sauce on any steak. If it needs it, it's cooked wrong bad quality and I'm not eating it. And all steaks should never ever under any circumstance be cooked more than medium. I personally have them medium rare. So...medium rare and NO steak sauce! Man I'm hungry now.
