Nope. Been there done that. Wasn't worth the effort. I'm just trying to wheel now, when I can find time.

Your build was great. I've probably read through the whole thing 5+ times and learned something new or helpful every time. The rig was killer, You met cool people, Cool people helped you out a long the way and you documented an awesome adventure. I was looking forward to seeing what you would do next but I understand not having time.  :driving:

More people are into Facebook Groups.

Actually the recent backlash regarding the election results, suspected corruption and voting systems manipulation, fraudulent vote counting, has many people abandoning Twitter and Facebook, as well as Fox News.

Parler, NewsMax, and OAN are the 3 conservative sources that millions of people are subscribing to.

Most Forums are dying.  Social media mostly is where its at.  Just depends on what tickles your fancy.  I spent too much time on FB Marketplace lately, and Vintage HiFi sections.  I have a new love of Vinyl records, along with my youngest son.  Who is 19. 

Even Pirate4x4 isn't as hopping as it once was.  But I think that changed once it sold.
