RE: Get Your Vehicle Geared Up For That Summer RoadTrip/Family Vacation (How to install Headrest Monitors)

in #diy6 years ago

I'm feeling like that last statement "If I can do it, you can do it, too" is not so true. :) Now, the tutorial you have here levels out the playing field some, but you're a lineman. You fix stuff all day all week. You know things most of don't know. If I were to make that statement, it would be totally true.

That said, this makes me want to go out and buy that equipment and install it just so I don't have to buy a $40,000 SUV. Even if I rarely have anyone riding in the backseat. I could put them in my wife's car and have her entertain the groceries, though.

"Accidentally" run over a Prius. :) Is it my imagination or are there just a disproportionate amount of those running around our states, compared with say, Idaho or anywhere else? California doesn't have that many.

Sort:  

Just trying to boost people’s confidence in their abilities and try something new 😉
My excursion has a 4 inch lift and 35 inch tall tires. My kids call it the Green Monster😜
A friend of my brother has 2 of them. Prius that is. He loves them, I just have to be careful not to rub one over. He he he

So, what's this brother's friend like? I've always imagined drivers of a Prius to be highly aggressive, or more like passive aggressive. That's a judgment, I know. It's just that if there's a car that's going to be cutting in front of me that isn't a souped up Honda or something like it, it's someone driving a Prius. And it's like, okay, you're driving a Prius. You're obviously a little more concerned about the environment or fuel economy than you are performance, so do you really have someplace that urgent to go? In a Prius? 😬

My statement in the post wasn’t implying any negativity or Judgement on Prius owners. Just simply that my Excursion is a big rig. Hence the name, King Of SUV’s. I average about 17mpgs on the highway and 15 around town. After I work a little magic on it I should get over 20mpgs on the highway, and still be able to pull a house off of its foundation. 😜😜

Awesome, both for the mpg and the house. And I meant I was the one who was sounding judgy, not you. :) You were being nice about it.
