New England B.S. Thread

Spotted a 2nd gen dcsb, maybe MGM, this morning at 0630 in Southborough by the train station. Plate bumper(ARB?) High clearance rear bumper, bed rack with yellow treads mounted on the drivers side. Anyone here? Truck looked good.

 

Same.

Been a lousy winter for it so far.

 

I can do it for you if you want. I've done it a bunch of times now

 

Ive got a buddy I work with in Easthampton MA (which might be too far for you) who would most likely do it at his shop with @tacobell007

 

Welcome, nice looking truck.

It's really easy, you can definitely do it yourself. You can rent all the tools you need for free from AutoZone if you don't have then. Tons of write ups around here for the procedure. One it gets warm out I'm sure you could find help from someone here too.

 

I've met him a few times, he works at a shop over in Natick doing body repair. I only met him because his shop was right next door to the shop I got my tires put on. Nice guy, has a created a sweet truck! Seems like every time I pass by him in the morning(which has been less frequently lately) on the way to work his truck has had some changes. He said he's got a profile on here, but at the time was not very active on the site, but that was a couple years ago.

 

There you go. I'd say I was willing to help but my free timeis few and far between. Maybe once it gets warmer out

 

Neat, truck looked like it has a decent amount of work done to it. LEDs all over the place but looked clean.

 

If I can get out of the house before 6:45 I usually catch him on 135. So far this year I have been unsuccessful, lol.

 

Warning taken, I'll put my order in for plate bumpers and an exo cage shortly!

 

Getting up early is tough for sure. The past few months I've been getting up at 0450 to go to the gym for the 0530 session. First few weeks I was really dragging ass especially since I don't typically get to bed until 11-1130. Now I'm used to it.

 

I'm just going to gamble on her not coming to Maine.

 

I think I need to add a workout back into my routine. Your right though, carving out the time is tough. I actually ran on the treadmill in my basement last night at 9pm. I'm not sure if in the evening after the kids go to bed is easier or trying to get up 30min earlier. I'm thinking later might be better for me since I'm used to going and playing hockey a couple nights per week, at least my body is used to the late evening workout.

 

I feel much better now between that and drinking a ton more water. It's early but it's about the only time for me so I keep at it. The wife and I were going together after work which was fun (especially for her since she usually beats me during the for time or for total reps workouts), but we might be adding to the family again this year so she stopped going to the gym a few weeks ago to be safe.

I kind of prefer to go in the mornings now, I pretty much crash as soon as I get in bed as opposed to sometimes still being amped up from working out at night.

 

Well congrats man, I hope things work out for you guys! Two is a great number, equal teams...once your out manned your up shits creek, lol! My wife stopped crossfit because she kept hurting herself, I think she was just pushing too hard. I've gone a couple of times to the crossfit in Ashland with some buddies and it's certainly nice to have someone to "compete" against as opposed to your own best time, kind of ups the intensity I think.

 

Maybe not intentionally, but some people have a horrible sense of direction. Unless Billy can weigh in on that, you may or may not be safe.

 

Shrug. Billy can send her to Maine if he wants. The GF and I have a spare bedroom.
Provided she's 18, of course...

 

I've been doing mainly weights but pastcouple of weeksjust 1-2 nights. The second job is busy as hell

Billy i'll be on the lookout haha

 

Ya if the coaches aren't actively monitoring you or didn't spend enough time teaching good form it can be pretty easy to get injured, especially when you get tried and have to bang another 30 snatches (giggitty)or clean and jerks.

The competition is what keeps me coming back. Not so much against others as with myself. It's much easier and much more enjoyable to push my limits compared to a normal gym like we used to go to. Plus never in a million years would I have been doing front squats, snatches, clean and jerk or deadlifts by myself at a regular gym.
