Flench,

We've been living like this since June 2004. I use a Hughesnet satellite connection. I have been using that since 04 as well. Unfortunately because they have been switching to a spot beam format that option is no longer available for new customers unless you buy a used system. I don't recommend that as I expect them to drop service for the older 7000 series modems any time now. At this point they no longer offer parts or replacement modems in the 7000 series as far as I know. Once they drop that modem offline from the satellites all the RV folks who are on satellites will be offline.

I expect to have to go to a smart phone and tether it. That will severely limit me as there are places we go that do not have cell coverage.

I use a Rampage ramp to get the bike up on the truck. A ramp pulls out then a trolley rolls down the ramp with the front wheel cup. The cup pivots up so you can put the wheel into it and strap it in. Once you start to winch up the cup holds the bike and tightens the straps standing the bike upright. Then it pulls the bike onto the ramp then the ramp onto the truck. Strap for travel and it's done. It's a one person operation.

That's a cool way to load the bike , never seen a setup like that .
Maverick I am running the 9000 series and had to have a tec to come out and do some fine adjustment's to it last week . I have had this set up for 4 year's but I am good friend's with the Tec and he more or less told me to go with Wild Blue that there new modem are way faster than Hugesnet ..So you mite want to check that out . The prices are alot lower too .

Yesterday, Classic vs Modern Muscle race.

Lost 2nd round on an .021 light and ran 3 tenths slower than any of my last 4 passes in the heat of the day and PCM pulling timing.  Didn't see that coming.

 when you're gonna head to the track, run your tank down, then fill with super. it makes a difference./

Already run 93.

[CAP1]

Already run 93.

 oh.....nevermind then.

 most people still run 87 even in cars like these. honestly, the first tankful i put in mine was 87. i haven't been able to make myself put anything other then super in since then.

 also, with only 1700 and change on the clock, and the majority of my driving being in stop n go traffic, i'm averaging 17.3mpg. that's not according to the car. that's according to my logs. according ot the car i'm doing 16.3. my last trip to mcguire, i was doing 26.5 to 28mpg on the highway at about 75mph with the cruise control set. pretty dam good for 400+hp.

I just hit 15,000 miles. Get out and drive your car man.

You going to a skeet shoot ?

You going to a skeet shoot ?

Went to a field. 

[Delirium]

I don't have anything to be envious about, but both of my rides get the job done.

 (I have the same vehicle, color and all)

and when the weather is nice

 i wish i had more time to........work's been busy.....i've been up every month so far this year, over last year. not that much....but enough to have me working many more hours. hopefully it'll put me in a position to be able to afford to hire someone soon...........

I run 93 octane always in my Hemi.  Remember.....the higher octane the better ignition (less chance of knock etc.)
Higher octane doesn't necessarily improve performance if your car is good on 87 octane suggested from the factory.
BTW the Hemi requires at least 92 octane.

However running lower octane then suggested can do a good deal of damage over time.  I think CAP would agree.

Don't be cheap....also....don't expect much better performance running 93 octane over the 87 suggested by your manufacturer.
Minimal if any performance gains will be realized.  Wasted money.

Run the 87 and save some money....to buy new stuff for your car!

It's a wash in my car with the cost per mile being aroun the same. The car knows what you're feeding it and the extra 1.5-2mpg you gain offsets the cost of the fuel.  I also pick up about 2 tenths and choose the better fuel for consistency. At least until the hottest day I've ever run happened. 

The fuel computer knows it too when I would fill up a second tank of 93 after 87 and back again. Very different mileage numbers and according to Vehicalc better results. YMMV, literally

Golfer old friend the car doesn't (computer) know what you put into it for fuel.  It however does know how much air and fuel it is set for (PCM)
The PCM in most modern cars can be recalibrated.  For MOPARS it's a simple matter of pulling Fuse #2 for 30 seconds.  Then starting and
driving like ya stold it    Believe it or not the PCM has a sort of memory on how you drive.  Find out the procedure for your beautiful Mustang.
The only way you'll tell the quality is by how the car runs.  If it says 87 from Ford you should have no problems with predetination, engine knock etc.
If you get better gas mileage it will be minimal.  Same with performance....if any.  One thing I do know is any automoblile tuned correctly will run
better on low humidity days.....usually those days are also cooler.  If however you have two days 80 degrees, the one with the lowest dewpoint
will make your car run better, less water taken into the intake with the air.
