NO!!!! Big meanie!!!

evening Mike. I am looking for something to protect Morgan from the dog hair. Have to keep one vehicle nice

I have the wet oakles in the front of the truck and don't worry about the back seat. I'm looking for a cradle type now

They don't get on the seat covers, they have their back seat and are content.

She was welcome to go wherever she wanted to!!!

It will slide on the leather seats

Don't have a problem in the Taco, since they have beds back there with washable covers

 

Changes coming in the shop.
You know how I hate change.
Have a couple of piss ass trucks that need something.
Been a rough 17 so far.
Tired and sore
Later
Good luck tomorrow.

 

The Silverado has leather, it works.

 

I hate change too!!! Hope it's not as bad as you are expecting.

ok, will give it a shot, thanks

 

Little late...yes, it's a torsion hitch. Kinda pricey but as much as I pull a trailer at work I can see the benefits of having one. Improved handling and braking and not get beat up so bad.

 

Thanks! Yeah I don't lke change either but at this point I just roll with it and try not to let anybody see even if soething does bother me. Part of it is I just don't care much anymore about the bull shit they come up with.

 

I'm out goodnight everyone!

 

night chris.

 

@ImpulseRed008 leather is really great for dog hair, as long as you keep their nails trimmed. For a sling type rear seat carrier most of my friends, and they all own dogs and hunt LOL, use canvas. The most common is Mud River. They also have covers for the seats that more people I know use. I use Mud River crate covers on the crates in the fall when temps drop. They often have sales, right now they have 15% off but sometimes go to 25% or more. But Amazon seems to be pretty consistent in low prices for them. The 2 barrel double seat covers are the ones that most I know have https://mudriverdogproducts.com/product/two-barrel-double-seat-cover/

Ticks. Thank you Ct. for Lyme disease.. Although the good people of Ct. had nothing to do with it. All my dogs for decades have had Lyme by the time they are 1. I mainly hunt grouse on the Canadian border and phez in SD because there are no ticks. But I can go out in my yard some years and trimming the woods back be covered in them. Hate the little bastages...

Good luck with that shot tomorrow and hope it helps you! It does with my foot, a lot but they limit me to 3 shots a year. They have talked to me about doing one for my back and sciatic nerve but I am resisting that. Had no idea that it could increase blood sugar until you mentioned it a while back. Yeah it is a real problem for some, but not everyone. Hope in your case it is a non issue. And that you get some relief!!

 

Thanks Mike. I'll look them up. Partially looking for hair containment and partially for protection from their nails.

 

Hey, Ive had that dog in trucks before on trips. I don't understand why the dog has any hair left. Id swear it was all in the truck.

 

Susan Have you heard of this guy? (Grant Wilson). I first encountered his "doings" over at "subaruoutback.org" . He has a heavily modded 15 OB. In the video I will link --it shows some, but he has done much more. when I first talked with him he lived in Ct. -he has since moved to Florida, but I think he still has his OB. He is the real deal --he is a vet and is passionate about his Subie. He has several more videos out and this is a early one, but here you can hear him talk about his car. If I did 1% of the stuff he has done to his, I would be dead and divorced --not sure of the order there!
Check this out https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mq6FPFpDkWE
BTW the subaruoutback.org is a great website -- I go by the same name over there. That site is waaaay more refined than this one -- no cussing allowed among other things. Good site if you have ?s. Although there is a lot of debate there on the pros and cons of the 4 or 6 cyls

 

I have to admit that is bad ass , I did sort of look into doing that with my Rav4 but ultimately did not .

We used to have a 08 CRV AWD -- Our Subaru with it's Xmode and drive system by far out-performs the CRV. The CRV's, rav4s, rogues, and most others of the few years back all shut down their AWD systems when they get above 20-30 mph. Subaru stays at a 60/40 split with all other traction conditions being held normal. all the others are driving and powering the wheels as if they are a std. FWD vehicle. I think some of the other mfrs. are changing their drive systems (Mazda for one) but I think this is a large undertaking. If you have never experienced the Subie drive system -- you would be amazed --especially in X-mode. I think the X-mode and the Toyota "crawl control" share a lot of characteristics.

 

Sorry, went out to dinner. OEM all the way, I don't like to mess around with the alt and starter and when I did it caused a fire.

Night Chris

 

Good luck with the cortisone injections , I've had maybe 30 plus cortisone injections in my right shoulder over the last 14 years . I've had so many that it has eroded the bone causing a lot of damage

My shoulder joint is so damaged from the cortisone I might need a shoulder replacement in the next ten or so years

 

I've had numerous injections into my cervical spine area to help with pain & numbness in my arm . those injections are not fun at all



Enjoying the visit with my brother and have a full day of fun for tomorrow !!

 

Are you related to @chris4x4 ?

That is so messed up and sad on so many levels. I'm sorry Chuck.

 

Well come on up! We might have to work out a trade some year, Maine in Fall colors is on my bucket list. I worked at a supermarket from the time I turned 16 'til I left to join the Air Force; our assistant manager at the store went to Maine for vacation every Fall and would bring back amazing pictures. It's been on my list since then.

The leather in the Ram holds up great all on it's own for the little dogs. I flip the flat deck over for Loki when I take him. Mitch has one of those sling/hammocks for Loki when he takes him in the Charger. In my gut I think that Mud River cover Mike (Cold Iron) posted would be best for your purpose.

How have I not heard that line before?

I'm absolutely perfectly without reservation whatsoever fine with that.

Well fudge monkey and Sunday brunch!
Mike
