February '24 Chat -- Leap Year!

Weird feeling being the only one here early in the morning. I see that a lot when I do my morning checks before heading off to work.

Is a forum still a forum if there's only one person here?

I'm usually awake, just not here. Been on nights for almost 12yrs

It’s a forum dedicated to 20 year old trucks now basically. Can’t talk about anything new and exciting anymore. I hate it but what can you do now…

Even performancetrucks.net is slow now. These new cars and trucks are so fast stock I’m not sure many people are interested in modding them other than esthetics.

I’m at the casino but I still find time for you guys

....and then there's the fact that in most cases, you cant modify them any more.

FB/IG has taken a lot of the traffic off the forums... Nice thing we don't really have repetitive questions that could be solved with search button

I got jury duty tomorrow. Sorry I can't talk to you about it. Haha

No kidding. The number of oil pressure questions alone in the last week makes me want to beat people across the head

It's funny watching the new guys call BS on something on guy that's been in the industry almost 20 years and started his dmax company out of a garage

I gave FB a 5yr lifespan back when it made MySpace obsolete. Internet sites always seem to run in lifespans, or attentionspans, I should say. FB just figured out how to keep your attention viewing click bait, and charge advertisers for it. As where much older forums like Redit, are just now gaining recognition because they are the old style open architecture/ post forums.. No AI chosen ment to piss ya off posts at top of your feeds.

I actually had friends who used Hot or Not years before FB. I should have caught on then, but missed the boat.

Yep, we're going to pay today for that 70* day yesterday. Supposed to be ugly out there, temps dropping, snow later. Yay.

According to news reports 3-4 tornados hit between Dayton Springfield Ohio area, I actually drove through the front about 30-40 minutes earlier on my way to work,
There's at least one house that had its entire roof relocated to nearby field.

Puts that at EF3? In strength
One of my friend's house got damaged, not sure to what extent though

 

[2004LB7]

I thought this year was supposed to be an el nino year so the weather will be a bit messed up until it settles back into it's regular routine

 

[lutzjk913]

We got hammered with wind and rain. The tornado Luckily picked up somewhere around 23 it sounds like. It flipped a couple semis on 23 I heard

 

[malibu795]

Hit wright Patterson AFB as well

Weather service confirmed an EF2 in Blacklick and EF1 in Hilliard from what I read. My one cousin works for a township and he posted pictures of a home with the roof tore off and trees snapped in half

Curious to what is considered a "tornados outbreak?"

Googled
