    Coming from California, people sue you for farting in their general direction. I'll be signing up once I get my CHL

    Definitely. It's kind of like car insurance, you never really want to use it. But it's good to have. At least in my eyes.

    Oh, I agree with that. I also have more than the state minimum when it comes to auto insurance.

    But kinda like you have a better chance of getting stuck by lightning than you do of winning the lottery, you have a better chance of being in a car wreck than you do needing your gun.

    FWIW, I do go outside during thunderstorms and I don't play the lottery. <--This really has no relevance.

    Yes.
    Friday I get to place a big order. Then the long 8 week wait begins....

    Plate Bumper (single hoop, two sets of fog light cutouts.)
    High Clearance rear bumper, with swingout.
    Weld on Hybrid sliders with kickout.
    and a full set of under truck skid plates.

    Looks like it'll be an early Christmas for me. :)

    Nice. That's my plan for a new front bumper. I really like his tube front bumper. I have been saving for the last month. Hopefully I can get it ordered in the next 2-3 weeks.

    Yes.
    Mine should look almost identical to this. With a couple of small changes. the outer LED pods, will be angled to match the bumper 30 degrees off center for more side flood.

    I'm unsure if I'll have him laser cut the Bruteforce logo in the bumper. Might be fun to back light that.

    Has anybody along the i35 corridor (more humid areas of Texas) used an evaporative cooler in their garage? Looking to add something to the man cave for times when we are working out, watching a rangers game or drinking beer. Pros? Cons? Brands you like?

    They don't work here. You won't get any evaporation of the mist. You'll just spit water out of it.

    That doesn't surprise me, you guys are always around 50% or more on the humidity.
