A classic 1993 Dodge Ram B250 318 Magnum Small Block. 194,000. Fiberglass roof. I can stand up inside at 5'9". Orange County CA Van for 30 Years. With no rust yet. Old enough to not need a code reader to fix. Transmission was already Rebuilt. And in pristine shape with a new tranny mount. But pre converted for solar in 1995. Runs amazingly well. Still gets 17 mpg on the freeway. Building it out with my $6000 of COVID Stimulus I have yet to spend. Building my own Lithium Ion Battery Packs for two house electrical solar systems out of individual cells. One 12 Volt to recharge with an isolator. The other at 48V or 72V. Starlink requires at least 48V. Both around 200 Amp/hrs, maybe. But also so my Van can recharge my 72V SURRON EBike DIY build I'm doing. Out of 18650 cells. At 3600 mAh. And 3.6 V/cell. 20 in series. 6 in Parallel. VIP Bluetooth BMS to be safe. But Not a Dirt bike Style SurRon. A touring/backcountry style one on a light frame with front & back shocks. And disk breaks. A used bike frame with detachable battery for urban use.

      Also, I'm a computer programmer and converse with AI every day. No reason to fear anything if you like this channel at all. AI and being into adventure in the real world are two different worlds I live in daily and it all makes sense in my life. These worlds don't need to converge, but it is perfectly fine if they do on occasion. I think of AI as a tool who can help me accomplish a goal quickly. It's really good for assisting you, but only if you are clear about what you want to do and know a thing or two about how to do it. If you are clueless, you won't understand how to have a conversation with your AI assistant and you'll probably get frustrated. But if you know a lot and can challenge the AI, you get where you want get very quickly. This take will make a lot of sense to some people, and mean nothing to others.

    Forest, have you ever considered getting a Rokon? A 2WD extreme off road motorcycle? Just imagine how extremely far you could explore up in the mountains with one. The tire hubs double as gas tanks. It can be floated across rivers. It's not a dirt bike, it's slow, and designed to crawl where nothing else can. I can imagine you getting your hands on one and doing multi day trips to places few humans have ever seen. You've mentioned that some of those trails go on for ages. I'm sure you've spotted trails on maps and thought "that's too far, I don't think I'll ever do that". Well, with a Rokon you could. They're expensive, but I bet your fans would help you crowd fund the price knowing the amazing videos you'd be able to make with it.

    Breakfast looks good. It reminds me a bit of a Spanish omelette (aka Spanish tortilla), but that recipe uses more eggs, some onion, and a lot of olive oil.
