inBought a $280 remote for my 30-ton rig, and half the crew thinks I wasted cash
Seen this movie before with grade control on dozers. The old guys swore GPS would kill the art of reading a blade, and ten years later every kid on a pad runs it, but the good ones still know how to cut a slope by eye when the receiver takes a dump. Same deal here, the remote is just a tool, and the guys who never learn load feel will hit the wall the first time the battery dies mid-pick or the signal drops behind a steel frame. The real problem is nobody pairs the gadget with teaching the basics anymore, so you get operators who can run a joystick but cannot tell you if a load is walking on them.

inI called the $90 folding luggage rack a ripoff until a hostel in Lisbon proved me wrong
You washed clothes two whole times instead of four, that's the big win here? I've done laundry in hostel sinks for free and never needed a $90 rack to keep my socks sorted.

Boy, I figured cheap was fine til mine wrecked a brake line on my truck.
