So, I’m not a big social media guy, what’s a DM? PM?
Thanks, I see it a lot lately.
DM = direct message. PM = private message. Same thing.

Hi Folks,
Our new sponsor Extreme Terrain (www.extremeterrain.com) has provided me with a few coupons to use with orders on their site.
COUPONS EXPIRED.
I just received some new door seals and front inner fenders for my Jeep - shipped quickly and prices were good! They even have open box deals which you might be able to take advantage of.

Pulled this week's coffee night from calendar. Assume with current COVID restrictions nobody is going out.

The club is now doing "trail exploration nights" in lieu of some coffee nights. Check out the Trail Rides and Events forum for latest details - https://www.backcountry4x4club.ca/forums/forum/8-trail-rides-events/

Something I do on bulb sockets on all my vehicles , is plug the socket full of dielectric grease, then stick the bulb into it, iv had to change alot of burnt out bulb sockets and pigtails, but never one iv " treated " to the grease , I think it helps cool the socket and wire contacts and prevents any corrosion too due to trapped moisture.
I was thinking about doing exactly this - these are the lower orange turn signal bulbs on the front grill as well - they are exposed to water, salt, etc. dielectric should help with all of it.

Before heading out on the trail last night I decided to do a quick diagnosis / repair on the Heep.
The right front turn signal bulb kept "burning out" (according to the Jeep computer / dash). When the Jeep was first started the turn signal would work for up to three "blinks" of the right turn signal and then would start doing a quick flash and indicate the RF bulb was out. Likely not an issue with the bulb.
I pulled the socket out and noticed that the contacts on the bulb were black - indication of arc / poor connection. I noticed that the bulb would "click" into the socket, but it was loose and would wobble indicating the contacts were loose.
I took a flat head screw driver and bent the contacts in towards themselves - shoved the bulb back in and it was perfect all evening!

Wow! Lots of home improvement going on. The new sink / faucet looks great. Big post-covid party on the new deck? Looks like it can support the weight!
-
Wow! Those are bright. Are they dimable too?
-
Those knobs look like a really nice upgrade.

the rear parking sensor and many other sensors have been unplugged while they’re working on it. My FordPass app keeps dinging when they do that.
Really? I'm surprised it would provide that granular level of detail.

Added these back to the calendar! Are the Woodside ones actually at the terminal or are they at the Timmy's across Pleasant Street?

Hopefully nothing too serious hidden on the danger Ranger!

lol I love the **** you bring home ... one of these days I might get you to help me find some cool old junk.
To answer your question, I just use a snow blower. I'm looking forward to using it in the new house as I don't have to be concerned about neighbors - I can fire the snow wherever I want!

I just pulled coffee nights from the calendar for the next two weeks. Will keep an eye on Government announcements and go from there.

Yeah! Really not a lot - average. I thought it had higher for some reason.

Just read that Woodside A&W is closing later this year
Wonder if they are doing some sort of redevelopment there?

At first I thought your plan was to SAS the Mazda for a woods recovery rig! lol
Looking forward to watching the Ford build. Super happy to hear business is doing well!
