Torque Pro does more, plus it's dirt cheap. If you're only working on Fords, FORScan Lite is an option, as FORScan only works on Fords and some Mazda's.

Dont hold your breath, White- this isnt about your health and “safety”- this is about submission to authority- They WILL find another reason to gag you.

Utah, I'd like to think, won't do that. But we'll see.

You are in a better state than I'm in when it comes to government then. As you said a couple months ago, only parts of your state have a face cover mandate.

Our dictator make all rules cover the entire state. It doesn't matter that the rural parts of the state have hardly any deaths or cases, we still had (and while lessened, most are in place) oppressive rules that closed stores, gov't offices, businesses, etc.

Oh, Your driving license is running out and DMV is closed, Tough ****, stay home like I said.

State and national parks were all closed and all campgrounds had to be emptied, Then our great governor wondered why all the truck stops and rest areas were full of motorhomes and banned that also. Let's see, kick them out of a place the people had some distance between them and tightly pack them into truckstops and truck rest areas. Way to go governor dumbass! Then when they were opened we had such great rules such as, you can run or bike on the trails but not walk. You must still pay the parking fees but we will not have anyone there to collect them and will ticket you for not paying.

Thankfully the enforcement of this in rural areas is non existent and if a place does have signs up for face covers everyone wears them. Kroger and Food lion have the signs, feed store and hardware store doesn't. Walmart and Food Lion were essential but little food stores were essential only if they also sold fuel.

We still have very few cases or deaths in the rural parts of the state.
Here in Virginia, It almost seems that the rate of cases and deaths is inversely proportional to how much the rules are enforced. Or, just a thought, it does seem to be exactly proportional to the population density.

Our Governor at the time COVID started was encouraging people to shop socially distant , but also get take out and at least once a week to try and help businesses stay afloat. Unfortunately, some still went under. He retired at the end of his term, and his Lt. Governor is now Governor. So far, he's done alright.... and better than Herbert did, IMO. The goal the whole time has been to disrupt the state economy as little as possible. Utah is a state that generates a lot of money via tourism, and that impacted us a lot. I read the other day that now things have been opening back up, we are pretty far ahead of tourism in 2019, so that is a good thing. There is such a vast selection of things to do and places to see, it's really a beautiful state.

I'm not sure what storm that was. Doubtful it's the storm we had two days ago.... he's usually a bit behind on videos, as I recall. BUT, I am still trying to figure out exactly where they are. Did that sign say Summit COUNTY? If so, that is quite a ways for him to travel. But you're way more likely to have that snow in Summit County than where he is in Washington County.

DOH... went back to the first of the video, and he said Cedar Mountain, which I believe is in Castle Dale (Emery County). That is pretty far from where they are based out of, Hurricane. I might wind up down that way some day (to live).

hello to you 10th geners that i haven´t came across in awhile. hope all is well
covid cases here in kentucky have been steadily dropping since early january. i feel like our governor overall has done a good job with all this covid crap overall, but many people here want him impeached for ¨trying to control¨ their lives. i ,mean i get it. im 23 years old and always on the run and it has been hard for me just as for everyone else. but i´m still living life, just with a mask on in places that mandate it. most outdoor events don´t mandate it.
but for the past week i have pretty much been snowed in. other than going to work and feeding my cattle i haven´t done **** other than piddle around in the garage a little bit. i have 3 snow blowers that have been brought to me. most people around here haven´t used a snow blower in years and many wouldn´t start when they were needed this week. i advise people to start them a few times a year at least keep them loose and carb clean of gunk.
