I have been off the road a few bits, I usually don’t drive to far because of it. My wife will road trip for days and be fine. Not me. That seat in the truck is comfortable! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
When I was growing up nothing less than a 3/4 ton (bigger brakes/ axles etc) as they were real trucks. Now the 1/2 ton capacity’s are really surprising.....

Not enough for 10k IMHO.

Maybe someone here cane benny from it. Both my boyz, err, pre Rangers are in need of a chebby, and now they tell me they want a 2500!
I just don't want to wind up missing a digit or limb. I can sometimes get in a hurry to get results.
Drove up to the weekend place with the oldest daughter. Tomorrow she goes to the DPS office early for the written driver’s test so I can begin her driving instruction....OH BOY....smhSent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Found out today I have a hernia. Belly button about 5-6” tear. Not good news for me. Doc is hoping I can slow down enough to heal without surgery. I hope I can. Out for my sons wedding tomorrow, and I’m not used to doing nothing, gonna be a long haul.
Went to Napa to get oil and filter for the wife's 4 wheeler. Someone bought all the filters and wouldn't let me have one. I told them I really needed it I already took the old one off. I was told I would just have push it out of the way and wait until Tuesday when the next shipment comes in. So I bought all the ATV oil. Your filters are not much good without oil now are they. Jerks.
So bought some expanded metal. 1 sheet of 1/2 inch and 1 sheet of 3/4 inch. Bought some 3/8 cold rolled rod and made a new coal basket in the bottom of the grill with angle iron and 3/8 rod. Then added a 3rd rack that goes between the upper and lower rack will serve as a fire box to cook steaks. Think charcoal salamander. Pics to come later.Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
Dave, whats the finished product going to look like?, Are you filling in the rest and adding gravel? Concrete? And I cleaned the 597 Remington today. Shot a few springs all over the seacan. First time Ive cleaned it but it cycles smooth now. One down many to goWashed the Bus. Took garbage to the dump. Ordered a bad A$$ fan for the back porch. 10000 cfm ceiling fan. Floated in the pool for a while when the kids were napping.. Smoked some chicken and short ribs, installed a connected deadbolt so it unlocks the door when the alarm is turned off (wife sometimes drives up with no keys to the house) Also when Nate finally comes down, I can unlock the house remotely so he can cook before I get there. :-)
Finished loading the dump trailer with fire wood for a family in Olympia. A couple cords of wood will really help them keep a home warm for most of the winter. I think the rest will go to our neighbors, and they can process it. Good firewood is getting harder to find even up here in the evergreen state.

Good firewood is getting harder to find even up here in the evergreen state.Made the 60 mile trip down to Olympia today and the old tires on the trailer made it just fine. Nice to know the family will be warm this winter. The new puppy came to live with us this afternoon. Another battle with the house breaking thing, but we will win out in the end. I do miss our old dog but not sure I would have taken this on again.

It's hard to believe they haven't been sued over their design yet.
