Anything and everything. At least they don't post stupid shit lol. Bad actors with nothing better to do I suppose. Of all the things to cyber attack (even mildly), a car forum seems (to me) to be an eminent waste of time.

Most of them are web crawlers for search engines. Ignore them.

The fleet in Massachusetts would probably be more useful lol....USS MASSACHUSETTS (battleship), USS SALEM (heavy cruiser), USS CASSIN YOUNG & JOSEPH P KENNEDY JR (destroyers) and USS LIONFISH (submarine). All of which are still floating.

Battleship TEXAS belongs to the state, LEXINGTON (carrier) to Corpus Christi, STEWART and CAVALLA (destroyer escort & submarine in the ground) to Galveston naval museum (Seawolf park).

Not once they are donated to become museum ships. The only time the navy gets re-involved is if the vessel isn't properly cared for. Google 'USS CLAMAGORE' AND 'USS LING'. As USS NEW JERSEY is managed by a non-profit called 'Homeport Alliance'. Feel free to browse lol...

That's exactly why they are charging. It's a museum ship, no fed involvement at all. Half the required funding for this drydocking was provided by the state of NJ (law of averages says they'd do something right eventually), the rest by contributions and charging admission fees, hence why it...

If you served aboard her there is a discount ($170 vs $225) otherwise no.

So I think I have a spare good one but the trick would be getting it there in one piece.

She's been in there for a week now and this was the first weekend they're doing drydock tours. I can't bring myself (yet anyway) to pay $225 to do something I used to get paid to do lol, but I did go up and see.

Well well lol....this is what I get for going out of town for a long weekend. Looks good. Same software as ramforum @Shaggy ?

Any of the parts still available.. dash top insert ? Need to be sure all clips , no crack and not dried out like the one in my truck is now .. Do you mean the whole dash top or the piece that goes over the speakers and defrost grille?

That's what I was waiting to see. Factory CAN controller won't integrate with the rest of the truck, unless he's gonna use a standalone. If he had snagged a 2006 then it would be doable.

It was. Rarely saw that one in stores.

Learned a few things in 25 years between USN & USCG.
