Saw this ad for Ruckstell two speed rears for a Ford Model TT (model T truck). I've seen these rears, they were the hot set up, but the endorsement caught my eye.

The picture shows a TT loaded with two huge logs, bigger than most of the South Carolina pines these days. The caption, 12,660 lbs of wet lumber. Trees are only lumber in the loosest sense, but acceptable. That would make me think that's what he's was pulling. Not an unreasonable number, but it doesn't show the length. Then he says six trips per day, which makes me wonder if that's 12,660 lbs per day? Did they have shady Mad Men back then?

I'm very surprised the hose was that strong. I thought they had break-away sections that also shut down the pump so gas wouldn't spew all over the place until the attendant realized what was going on and shut down the pump.

A little poking around shows the break-away hoses don't always work right.

Intel Security has published a white paper(PFD) on hacking cars of the future.
Not cures, but reminders to designers and manufactures, what they'll have to contend with in their designs.
