    EV discussion - hate or love?

    Even if you get the tow rating, how far do you have to tow? Anything further than 100 miles round trip - good luck. What about a Kia EV9?

    EV discussion - hate or love?

    The way EVs are depreciating - I wouldn't even consider buying one. Lease is the way to go, they are giving them away. I've seen some stupid deals. I saw a Nissan Leaf for $50/month yesterday. Tacans were getting 30k off, Lyrics were like $299 a month. "I really like the idea of not standing...

    EV discussion - hate or love?

    I wouldn't say the H2 sucked anymore than the 1/2 tons trucks of the time did. The expectations were too high for it. It was simply a Silverado marketed wrong.

    EV discussion - hate or love?

    You leave out quality. The Hyundai's are decent on the surface but the Audi is a whole another tier. I have no data to back this up, but while both will depreciate like a boulder in the ocean, I would think the Hyundai depreciates faster. Also subjective the Audi looks 100x better.

    Boating Weather for the intercoastal FL

    Honestly just test your limits. There are parts of our ICW that aren’t even phased by 20+ mph winds. Wind direction is a big factor as well. West winds down in Miami are favorable.

    1.8l motor cost?

    I'm trying to sell a boat - I see what's out there. The market is in the tank compared to 18 months ago. And yes on the 20k off, according to the mailer I just got.

    1.8l motor cost?

    There is a problem if a county tax worker has a boat worth 90k more than XXX. Those guys don't make that kind of money. Anyways that is BS, the boat market is in the tank. I just a letter 10 minutes ago my local dealer offering 20k off new boats. Can you register in Montana like the luxury car...

    2024 195S Enovation Controls HV700 TCS - Map Update?

    Same issues on the 12". No luck. Re-do the dash and flush mount a 7" Garmin.

    How to avoid clogging your engine with sand

    I do the same, minus the beaching, I won't let the get boat get that shallow. I let the bow anchor spin the boat for me. I turn off engines, bow anchor catches and spins me while I grab rear anchor, and jump off and tie up rear.

    Garage floor epoxy - anyone done it themselves?

    We did the Home Depot kit in the shop bay. Our prep was significantly longer than the install. No idea where it stands but when I left it was at least 5 years of cars in and out daily and never peeled.

    Connext Nav tutorial

    well said. There is nothing unique about the Connext system besides the shape of it. There is a reason high-end boats use common MFDs.

    Seakeeper Ride install and review on a 252 FSH Sport

    I might look into this in the future. The one I saw was a Seakeeper 2 I think. Now that they have this, might good with wife and baby.

    Connext Nav tutorial

    Yeah for my normal use the connect is fine. Of course I know our ICW so well I can probably go eyes closed let alone needing a nav system lol. Where the 943 really shines is when I take the boat to the keys, or meet up with people for scalloping a few counties north.
