Best Of

Honestly, I've had way more problems with FedEx Ground/Home than UPS going back to 2020. USPS has become fairly unreliable these days too. I think the modern shipping infrastructure with all the scanners, conveyor belts, sorting machines, etc. work great, UNTIL, something odd happens. A truck break down, a label gets torn, a package falls out of a tote, etc. Once it is out of the automated systems, it always seems to take forever to sort out.

I was at the feed store yesterday and happened to espy this adorable little Mitsubishi thing. It looked quite cute, quite capable (appears to have 4WD, although maybe AWD?) and quite Vermont. :cool:

No way I'd drive that toy.

So if I were going to search for the components to make one of these, what would I search? I'm guessing a Bluetooth receiver/controller of some sort and a battery pack to go with? I've got speakers...

TIA!

PartsExpress: bluetooth amplifier board + battery board + panel mount and maybe a charger?. I didn't look around much at their website, but they often have project pages that talk you through it.

I generally have better luck with FEDEX than UPS. USPS is guaranteed to be a terrible experience. Packages typically sit in the Richmond distribution center for at least a week

Youuu son of a... just you wait. You will rue the day... RUE THE DAY!

I encouraged our son & daughter-in-law to get a Speed Queen when they got married & bought a house (pretty much at the same instant). They did, and they love it.
This being said, the 20 year old washer is probably better than any new "ordinary" new model in myriad ways. As such, it just might be worth fixing.
