Default First Drive of 2026

Just had to test out the new rear axle bearing in the Merc on the 29th of April. Only a few miles so not much of an endurance test but it was a good scenic drive anyway. https://youtu.be/GfdXd4bfm6c

Nice drive Ralph, I get shivers seeing you still have snow! Not much of a winter here in central USA this year.

Not cold at all. Those big drifts blown into the bushes and windbreaks are solid and take a long time to melt. Like glaciers. There are still a few around today even though it is getting up to 70 degrees out there.
