    Aluminum utility trailers

    That makes sense they'd be lined... But now I'm curious what they would line them with.

    Aluminum utility trailers

    So, I'm possibly going to be in the market for a utility trailer in the future, and I'm debating on getting an aluminum trailer. I'm aware that aluminum is going to be much more susceptible to metal fatigue than would a steel trailer, but I don't know what the practical lifespan would be for...

    Busa Hauler......happy happy

    Damn tasty bait, that.

    Busa Hauler......happy happy

    You go right ahead and laugh... :rolleyes: Oh and BTW, yes, it did haul that... 2,400 miles from Ohio to Washington state. And then a boat from Ohio to Colorado. Working on my next load as I type this.

    Custom engine builders?

    I am still cogitating on this... Though my focus has shifted a bit. If I happen to win that lottery what I don't play, I'm going to go out and pay for exactly what I posted in my OP. More realistic is that after I get a Hayabusa (which hopefully happens this year), I'll be looking into...

    Changing my signature

    I am seeing signatures, hence why I went to edit mine, as it contains a link that is no longer relevant. Pic for example:

    Changing my signature

    I'd like to echo hayabuser's question. After 10 minutes of searching, I still can't find the edit signature area, which I normally can find blind-folded in most forums. :/ I found it once upon a time, honest! :p

    Actual width of stock rear tire/wheel? (for trailer towing)

    I only come out of hiding once every seven years, you know this. :D

    Actual width of stock rear tire/wheel? (for trailer towing)

    I'd be tempted if I were buying a Honda Grom, but the Prius has a Class I, so, ehh... I'd like to get it home without roadrash. Now if you know someone who makes a Class III for the Prius Two, I'm all ears. I want to see what kind of retarded road-train this car could actually pull. :D

    Actual width of stock rear tire/wheel? (for trailer towing)

    I did neglect to mention I (no longer) own a truck, didn't I? :p Also, I do know that babying it is not good for the rings, but straight highway travel is the same, in my mind.

    Actual width of stock rear tire/wheel? (for trailer towing)

    The stars may align and allow me to purchase a Hayabusa this year, just in time, it would seem, (should the rumors be true), to avoid the mess that 2019 somewhat promises to be. :poke: Anyway, I'm probably going to be buying from a non-local dealer, and since I'm not fond of break-in on the...

    How To Test Regulator?? Video Included

    There shouldn't be a difference in this area gen1 to gen2. The yellow wires should produce AC voltage to ground with the engine running, and what exactly that voltage is I would hope would be in the service manual. I would expect voltages above 36v, myself. This doesn't test the regulator...

    Beds And Pillows (for The Chemically Sensitive)

    I'm searching for a new bed, and a new pillow. Not an easy search, for this reason: I am one of those people who is sensitive to chemicals. Previously my bed was a hand-me-down queen that my parents had already put 10+ years into, and I had little trouble with that. It was quite worn out when...

    Custom Cams

    I think no one is still reading my previous thread, so I'll start a new one for this topic. I'm still thinking about a fully custom engine, but it's on the back burner until the funds become available. However the discussion did get me looking more seriously at the Prius, and it's...

    Custom engine builders?

    Well, unlike typical reasons for building a truly custom, from the ground up engine (HP bragging rights), my goal is to test some theories rattling around in my brain meats, that if correct, (and the builder was competent in his craft AND tuning), would give me MPG bragging rights. Plus, if...
