New England B.S. Thread

Welcome!

, which is not far from me so I would assume I am in the same range

 

True

 

Let's not discuss weight.

I don't look much different than I was in college, but I'm a solid 50 pounds heavier. It's awful.

I just finished up an awful week of shifts at work. I was working 3 PM to 3 AM for the project I was on. At least I got some OT out of it. I can finally buy a floor jack. Yeah, I don't know why I don't have a floor jack, either.

 

Never got into running. Hated it in the military and hate it now. Not built for it since my dad's a short squatty body, makes me a short squatty body. Hitting 45 this year and trying to get back into the 220 range. Just went under 240 yesterday so it's coming along. Hard to take that weight off a 5'10" frame.

 

@mach1man001 - Rob, have you come across a late 2nd gen grille from a base model? I just picked one up and was told that it is "anthracite" - looks a like a perfect match to MGM to me. I don't see anthracite as being a color option of touch up and think I got one that's MGM. I have yet to clean it and the truck up and then compare the color during the day. Late day light, it's a perfect match. So my question is if you've seen one, is it very close to MGM in color???

 

Thinking I might be ordering stuff to put in some bed lights. Not entirely certain what I'll need but I think I would like to have two switches, one in the bed and one in the cab. The one in the be would strictly power the bed lights but the one in the cab would power the bed and reverse lights (damn tailgaters lol). Or should I just do a basic bed light kit with 1 switch.......ooooh the choices lol

 

More switches - more bypasses and wiring unless you're running a relay'd setup which would likely be the cleanest method. As for the reverse lights meh just get old throw away lug nuts from a shop

 

For a more subtle set up - Anti-freeze in a second windshield washer bottle/pump with the hose running toward the underside/rear of the truck. Need a nice light spray that'll loft up as a mist...

tempting......

 

I just use the Rain X washer fluid, and that works for me. Actually ever since it was caked onto my wife's paint I mix it 50/50 with the blue stuff

Are you asking me if I have a anthracite one? Is that a Toyota color?

That's a great deal!

 

Never actually had a problem with it building up on the paint. Maybe it reacted with what you use for a wax?

 

IDK but it was a bitch to get off. Doesn't help it's a black car and it was the middle of summer. I almost always use meguiar's waxes

 

Ha I wrestled 112 then 119 in high school. Get up to like 130# for lacrosse season then cut back down in the winter.

I was almost 170# after Harper was born from being lazy and eating shit. Now I'm 155# and leaner/ stronger than I've ever been.

But ya, I was skinny as hell in high school.

 

How tall are you Seth, if you don't mind me asking.

 

he's like an inch taller htan me

 

He's got to be taller than that. I've seen pictures of him and he doesn't look like he's 5'1

 

ummm i'm 5'1"....so that would make him 5'2"

 

Who doesn't love a good 8-12"
