    Check out True Nutrition Their protein is amazing, you can completely customize it any way you want. It is the best blending protein that I have ever used. The best part is that you can go with a lot of flavor, a little flavor or no flavor. Same with sugar.

    I have one that I use with No flavor that I can mix with other shakes. Then I have a Cherry that is pretty good and a strawberry I didn't order the flavoring strong enough.

    How about this concept? (Edit: I guess the picture won't load, so I provided the link below)

    It could likely be made with some scrap plate steel, a short section of c-channel, some square and rectangular tubing, and bolts and lug nuts to attach the wheel to the plate. The triangular sections would be welded to the c-channel and the base. You would need to dimension the thing to fit into the space between the wheel well and the tailgate.

    The square tubing should fit snug into the c-channel so you would want a channel with a lip on the open side, like this:

    The unit could be bolted down through the floor of the bed to prevent sliding and rolling. I would think this would hold everything in place nicely if sufficiently robust sections were used.

    For those in the Denver area that need steel and don't want to pay full price, check out K&K surplus (Commerce City). You can find alot of what you need for .50 a pound. They have new steel as well if you can't find something suitable in the surplus inventory.

    A bumper here, some tires there..... you know, stuff.
    so i live dead center on the apex of a curve in my neighborhood and on a daily basis i have close calls backing out or even pulling into my driveway because the douchenozzles that drive through rarely go under 40mph. our dog has just recently fully recovered from one of these assholes who ran him over and didn't even stop after.

    one of these days i'll be in the driveway working on the truck, and because my hands will be greasy, the wrench might accidentally slip out of my hand and harpoon one of these cockwaffles cars :mad:

    'No really officer, I really was using the 3lb sledge while working on my truck. I was clearancing the wheel wells for these huge tires. I was swinging away and it just slipped out of my hands.'

    yeah, today was bad. close calls when i left and came home. i've even been passed IN my neighborhood!:eek:

    i don't want to generalize too much but most of them are from the 24hr fitness that my neighborhood is connected to.

    I know they suck, but if you're in an area that allows them and it's necessary, you could petition the community HOA or city to put in a neighborhood speed hump to help control the speeds. My friends neighborhood just had those put in due to a similar issue.

    I wonder if they're the same type of people that drive around for 5 minutes in the parking lot to get a spot close to the door and then get on the treadmill and walk for 30 minutes. :rolleyes:
