What manly sh!t have you done today?

Wasn’t today, but night before last I got to do an impromptu live hurricane drill of hooking up my generator and firing it up after a transformer blew in my neighborhood. I had planned to run it in the next day or so anyway, but I got to put it under load. It’s a portable so I had to drag that heavy bitch from the carport to the pole and hook it up. It has wheels, but only on one end. Have a handle at the other end to lift/pull it by. This was actually my first live usage of it since getting a professionally installed outlet/breaker put in for it a couple of years ago.
 
Ah, yours actually has a drain plug and you just replace the crush washers. On my F-150, you have to remove the entire cover to drain it. At least with the factory cover on it.
damn, yeah, that is more work than it is for me. I remove the fill plug, then the drain plug. The only real annoyance is using the hand pump, which resembles a soap dispenser, to fill it up.
Next weekend, I will do the power steering, coolant, and transmission fluid too
 
2013 LR4. I have had bigger off road trucks but as I'm older I want the off road but I want to be comfortable.

This one's had all the bad stuff addressed like cooling pipes and timing chain replaced. I plan on babying it by servicing often.
