no no 2:30 take your time.....I start work at 3:00

 

damn it's 34' we have a freezing warning today It's all down hill from here. hahaha

 

You sir have just reminded me why I LOVE New England BUT live in Florida....

We miss the county fairs , apple picking & pumpkins even the sno-shoeing along Routes 4 & 5 from White River to Quechee

 

good morning TW peeps! word for the day is "doghouse"!

 

so in the "what else can go wrong" category. I overdid it Saturday and my left leg started hurting. No problem, I just hung out Sunday and didn't do much. Well now it's really pissed off and I literally can't walk. Had to use a rolling chair to get into my office so I can work from home today. Feels like fire in my butt cheek when I try to move it. Can't go to the doctor, cause I literally can't even get into a vehicle. Oh well, at least I was able to sleep better last night/ Hope everyone has a good and pain free week. Laters.

 

mine turned out like that as well-ran out of gas!-perfect timing!

 

lets see if i can get some yard work done before it gets too hot. back later.

 

Turbo is back in the subaru! Excepting that we have to chase down a small coolant leak is running quite well....

 

Get Well!!

Good Morning All !

 

Any loss in power noticeable from the taller profile ??

 

I could never commute to work that far it's to far of a distance to/ from , to much fuel cost plus wear & tear on the vehicle . I would be looking for a different job or looking for a place to live within 10-15 miles away

When I used to work I had a job that was just under 30 miles each way and the commute killed me especially in the evening . Some evening commutes were almost 3 hours and that got to me


If you live anywhere in Socal you're looking at a 3-4 hr evening commute if you live more than 30 miles away .Rush hour here starts at 3 pm and can go past 8pm

 

That sucks !!!! , We've got triple digit temps today with temps nearing 105 degrees

 

Good Morning Everyone !!!

Another warm day with triple digit temps and again working in the garage getting the Camaro ready for this Saturday's big car show

 

Hey now......you do remember that my commute is 86 miles round trip and I-75 during "Season" can be a parking lot

Money is an evil we mu$t deal with BUT I love to drive, so round tripping those miles is nothing to me...It is the $%^& that sucks ......

We went to Orlando this weekend and Ms. Lexus GPS and I agreed on a "Smarter Route" but that "Ride" through Central Florida is a "fun run" and this Old Diesel Jockey needs that.....

 

A friend of mine before he retired from a Government job drove 150 miles each way . That was from the Lancaster / Palmdale area of Los Angeles county to East county San Diego

 

My company is tired of paying my gas milage, they are going to put me in a company vehicle, a small dodge transit looking thing, ugly, no power but no more wear on the truck. 30k miles a year is a bit much on mud tires

 

Those are definitely ugly vehicles!!!

 

Thanks JD! This stupid this is annoying. I was going to black out my radiator supports this weekend. I have black barbecue paint and small sponge applicator. I figured I would spray the sponge, carefully dab the radiator, and get it done without pulling things apart. That was the plan anyways.
I'm thinking about derping the inner grill a bit silver to bring it out. With the new fogs, the front end is really dark now. I know that's the new look, but I wasn't planning to go all in.
The nice thing about plastidip is that it's temporary if you don't like it
The bad thing about plastidip is that it's temporary if you do like it
Still tossing the idea of going back to either an OEM chrome or silver grill along with my stone guard charcoal bumper.

 

No No it is the triple digit temps that sucks LOL! Need a good frost ASAP so the leaves will drop so I can see the ruffies in the woods beyond 5 yards when they flush.

We will be in triple digits soon enough. That is if you count the - sign in front of the temperature as a digit

 

Morning 50's !
Had a blast this weekend at Rausch Creek Off Road Park.
Had to winch out a couple of times but nothing broke.
