Esp, for the spaces to end up never being used to charge EVs. If its like the ones at my office, half the spaces are full of gas cars because they are the closest spots to the entrance.

These seem to be in a lonely spot, but it is an older Mall. Franklin Square in Gastonia. There are two stand alone ATM machines, really close & a Chilis's across the street. McDonald is walkable. But the rest of the Mall, like Walmart & Best Buy, are a Long walk. Then again, most gas stations / mini marts, don't have room for charging stations.

Amazing amount of material being used, to power EV Chargers!

But they're GREEN!
Think of the children! ( who will spend the rest of thier lives paying taxes for this crap.)

Just polished off a nice lunch in Elizabethton at Barefoot's Sandwich Shoppe. Darn good, especially the fried okra. They also have homemade fries that are wide and thin and are exceptionally good. No pics because food don't wait

I've been thinking of going to slotted rotors too. How does he like them?

Blew the pistons out of the bores on this one is all. Seems the pad backing plates are harder steel than the rotors. The slag on the caliper brackets was awesome

Not a lot of bite to these particular units

Local church requested a truck for their end of school party. Asked if the kids could get some water. Yea, we can do that.

Think Ollie will be pumping in a couple years!

I was really excited when I saw they had a peanut butter flavor. But to me it tastes like a cheap peanut butter, so I just stick with the salty caramel.

The wife wanted some Orange Creamsickle Ole Smoky that she heard about, but they didn't have any, so I got white chocolate Strawberry cream instead. It was awesome! Like drinking a Strawberry Shortcake Ice cream bar with a kick.

Installed one of these manual swing out awnings today.

I'm kind of freaked out by how much force there is on a crappy bushing at the base of those arms that is just held in with rivets. Curious to see how long it lasts, I could see replacing it someday with a thicker socket cap screw and locket that could be tightened occasionally.

Said they were grinding.

I’m sure at some point, there was a grinding noise, so he wasn’t wrong…

Been looking for something similar for coverage above our patio door. Manufacturer and dimensions?

Sure did. First time driving through that area. I was impressed with how much Elizabethton had to offer.
