    What's a lift ticket running these days? We used to get deals through parks and rec for $15 tickets as kids. I think the last time I was there it was $90 a day?

    Roads are okay. By saturday should be golden.

    Sorry i missed this. had concert i spent all day getting ready for. Totally missed it.

    Nothing scheduled yet. Stick around and im sure something will happen.
    Yea got him the spring before i left powell to go to the slope. That's when i planned the Epic because i had nothing better to do up in Alaska haha

    I Daily drove him a lot. But as soon as i didn't have too i took advantage of it and then there was just the constant struggle of keepign him alive.

    But I do daily Igor, and i know its possible to dd your truck. You can't deny you'd save a LOT of money if you got rid of a vehicle..or two. Frank costs me 325-375 a year to just sit there. But Frank is like your truck to me and the red head to mike. I'll never sell him. And Igor is becoming of that standard especially after the trip i took in Oct with Mike.

    Shoulda done some winter prep to fight off the orange stuff. I always did a little, but i wish i had done more in MO and now here in Sheridan they are salting too.

    I hate that..









    Moving on..


    Just got off work..14 hour day. Yay show biz! Got to run sound for the Brubeck Brothers though, the sons of legendary Dave Brubeck. Im tired though..haven't eatting in 11 hours.

    I meant spray the bottom with fluid film or something. Not park it lol thats not winter prep.


    oh and back to the tire size, i agree a 285 i don't think is worth it. a 295 or a 255 is though i think.

    HAHA that goose trip was hilarious.

    Some good times in there. Can't wait for more. Freaking cold last night and today here. not cool after all the snow we just got.

    I wish i could fix my trucks first before summer haha

    Probably true. though i barely had to trim with my 255s and barely rub at all. relocating the washer bottle is easy. And you should do it anyways since it looks like shit with your tube bumper anyways. So thats not valid i think.


    Its too late now man. that shit has started.

    What? Since when? I mean sure the bushings on our rear shocks are weird. but you can just buy your own bushings.

    Or do a custom mount with 1/2'' bolt and heims like a man.

    But far as i know they don't have an OEM replacement for us if thats what you mean.

    you don't know how difficult it is to find a welder..

    yes

    we try on shoes
    practice twerking
    send dick pics to Ben

    someone could make a killing here if they had the skills and time... even lower wa doesn't have many offerings.. there is actual shops but the ones that specialize in offroad seem to charge a fist full or are out of business. it's cheaper to buy fab'd work from vendors and have it shipped..
