No - but 3 days shy of 2 wks since my first chemo, (of 10, tentatively,) I'M FEELIN' GOOD, however that tune goes ... But every 3 weeks, I lose half of it to "down time." Too tired to think for a week. Week after to get steam back up. Then I expect a good week. We'll see. Scheduling F150 stuff each week before the next shot. Solar now keeps my 3 yr old battery topped and floated.

EDIT; So a new battery will be ok if I leave the radio on but volume low. Present battery hardly used, but ran deep down mebe 3-6 times, and sat a week. Bad mojo.

Speaking of a solar float charge... I've been thinking on getting one for the F150 because it spends a lot of time sitting.

Do you have to unhook it when you drive it? It just charges back through the lighter port doesn't it?

I did not take any pics last night... just video, so I can't show it just yet. BUT, I found a couple of interesting things in my research. Number one is Microgard has ALSO changed suppliers. Now made in Vietnam. While it's a well built filter, it's no longer the same as a WIX Pro-Tec.

Also, there is ZERO difference (that I can tell) internally between a Fram Extra Guard and Tough Guard. The only difference that I see is the color of the can - oh, and a 3 dollar price difference.

EDIT: These are OLD pics from October of 2021, showing a WIX next to the Microgard. I am standing in the isle at O'Reilly here. Only diff was the drain back valve material.
