    :frusty: There is no plan.

    Ben is just talking out his ass again. Probably just a way of a come-back to all these things you give him a hard time about. He knows you are sensitive to it.

    How can there be a plan with neither one of you willing to commit to anything. Between you with your career needs and him thinking about quitting his job, that leaves me nothing to work with.

    What he said over the campfire this weekend, leaves me feeling kinda hopeless about a trip with him this year. :pout:

    I have not given up hope on you yet tho. There it is. Public laundry.

    Also, checked out a car show this weekend. Saw a supra and a Ford GT. Never seen a GT in person, I was in love. Not very good photo of the Supra, 2jz with a big ass turbo. Lots of cool cars, wish I had taken more pics.

    Also got a new project/toy tonight.

    DRIFT TRIKE!!!

    Screenshot_20160601-205045_zpsrl5o7f1h_d86abb2126fd463270b6ae6f85c64c756e198552.jpg

    Plans are to swap the motor and eventually get a straight handle bar, front brakes, and at some point do some modifications to the frame. Maybe a different seat down the road...

    Or maybe I'll leave it, definately swapping the motor, have it sitting in the garage right now.

    Also I have to redeem myself. Nothing like chicken pasta and food poisoning the night before I leave after i packed the truck. Never been that sick ever god damn. Cherry on top was I missed a good weekend trip and now my reputation is tarnished.

    Here's mine: I realize I'm not a TW cool kid anymore, and these days am better at burning bridges than building them on an internet forum that continues to circle the drain.... BUT... I don't plan to stop traveling any time soon (even if I don't write a memoir every time I do :rolleyes:). The wheeling season is year round for me, I am fortunate to have a flexible schedule with an awesome boss, and the means to travel. I am just a phone call away from you (or the rest of the folks who didn't eat paint as children) to join on one of the many planned trips, or to plan something new. With the understanding that the bullshit is left at home. No passive aggressive nonsense that has plagued trips in the past. No leaving camp at 11am. No collective irresponsibility. No unwieldy groups. And, most importantly, no assertions that king shocks are better than ADS :luvya:

    I will definitely have time now. No problem there.

    However, probably only 1 week as well for an August time line. BUT. 2 weeks is great for Oct for a Moab/AZ trip? Or NM?

    I know you really wanna do a Goose/Independence/Glacier/Alberta trip..which..i would LOVE. But im not sure i should take 2 weeks off from spraying. Not sure i can afford it. :oops: But i'll be F-unemployed, as Timmy so eloquently puts it :p, in Oct. So fair game there.

    I feel your pain though..but..:itllbuffout:


    I require more details on this job venture? What is goin on?

    Also, you shouldn't do anymore trips until you fix your truck for the love of god. It'll just come back to haunt you latter...

    Well can't say I'm not surprised on the driving part.

    But I'll be amazed if you find a job like what you have in the area that you just bought a house.

    Shoulda rented.. :luvya:

    Anyone happen to have a spare 6 lug center cap for the base wheels that they'd be willing to part with haha. Apparently one of mine didn't make the trip back to Florida with me.

    So I traced my new squeak to the lower heim joint/bolt area on the passenger side King. :( Spraying some PTFE on it quiets it right up. Anyone else had to deal with this sort of issue?

    Also, just made the final payment on the corolla. It's now mine. :woot:

    Yup, last time I pulled my kings they got new lower sphericals. The ones in there were so loose after 35k miles. It's an easy job but still gotta pull the coil over off the truck. It's getting warm here and all my creaks and squeaks are coming back... ahhh summer.

    Congrats on the rolla! Big cheese will soon be all mine :evil:
