5,000' of 9/16" cable. Had my cables on the turnouts replaced. There were 8 runs of 450' each. The old cables had splices that kept coming apart, now they are all solid runs from one end to the other. I still have a lot of cable on the reel.

I ordered a Euro/Global to SSQA adapter from Bell Precision. The less expensive adapters from Titan and others have terrible reviews, and see to frequently require modifications to the adapter or implements that you are trying ti use them with. I'm happy to pay 20% more for a (hopefully) quality product. I'll report back on how it works.

I can concur. I ordered an SSQA conversion from Titan for my pin-on setup. The one pin almost never fully seats unless you beat on it with a hammer. I've tried a bunch of things to make it right and just can't figure out what's wrong. It's even hard to close with no attachment installed...
However, I don't do a lot of work with my bucket/forks, and 98% of it involves lifting, not down pressure, so one pin is enough to keep the piece in place.

Well this was an expensive week for me,
A grease hose earlier in the week then the $$$$ a 2022 RAM 2500 Blue loaded Larime trim, now to move my 2019 1500 loaded Larime

I wouldn't count on it. We've had to replace expensive name brand batteries after 2-3 years recently.
Looking at adding probably 4 batteries to our Airstream. Battleborn 100Ah LiFePO4 are a grand ea...
Also planning to add more PV panels and upgrade the charge controller, add EasyStart to the ACs. I doubt I'll be out the door under $10k (I will hire it out - I don't want to work on a brand new trailer with high tech stuff in it...).

Is that a "Blue Streak" '19 and "Patriot Blue" '22?
I had a '15 Blue Streak Ram and when I went to order the '20 I was so disappointed they had discontinued it (got the Patriot Blue). I absolutely loved Blue Streak. At least I get to still regularly see it, as I sold it to my son.

A made in USA buck knife with leather holster. I also bought a sharpener at the knife store. The guy there showed how sharpener works by sharpening my pocket knife. It has different ceramic rods course to fine.

They are both Patriot Blue Pearl, I do like the color.
I've been browsing for a 3/4 ton for awhile, the Blue or Granite gray were the two colors I was looking at. The Mountain Brown and light Frost interior in the 19 is my favorite interior but it's almost unavailable now days.
