I admit, it'd be fun watching him wheel.

 

Any one know where i can pick up an rtic cooler for next week and or any one willing to let me borrow theirs for two weeks?

Last minute forgetfulness is kicking me in the butt. Thought they had them in stock now.

 

btw - some potential decent sized hail coming this afternoon.

Single car garage sucks... truck is parked outside under a tree hoping to minimize impacts.

Although I'm thinking about maybe putting the Prius out there so I can potentially claim hail damage on insurance and put that money towards some mods on the truck

 

The MT part is a joke. Highway 2 across the north side sucks except fro Glacier. Your better off going through the southern side and actually through some of the "bigger" cities. Much prettier.

He is usually pretty cautious, but like the skinny pedal. I mean why not if the truck is already supercharged.

Congrats! That was a good time yesterday. I was a little late getting set up but met a lot of nice people and some of the other local vendors. Well done event!

 

Or if you want one today, Cabela's sells rebranded Yeti's and you may be able to find a coupon or sale.

Anybody?

 

I was trying but mothers day snuck up on me.

 

I have one want me to stop buy tonight? Need to pass along cashola too.

Have to say I was not impressed with RTIC performance this weekend.

 

You can also pick up the Walmart Yeti/RTIC knockoffs for~$100.
Ozark Trail. Their tents suck, but ever since they ripped the design specs from RTIC, those products are equally as good from my experience (coolers, ramblers, cups, etc.).

 

This makes me sad to hear

 

The Cabela's cooler looks less like a knock off and actually has better features for less money than Yeti. I'll probably pick one up, I've been wheeling with a freebie that doesn't lock for a while.

 

What size? And why?

 

I've got an Ozark Trail cup, Yeti cup (Christmas present) and they work they basically the same. Can't tell a difference.

I've got a 65 qt Rtic cooler and it's great. Left ice in there a for a week (on accident) water was till cold. The key is to pre-cool it. Go buy some ice packs and throw them in there about 2-3 hours before actual use.

 

Doing the work on my truck this weekend, I found it's really hard to line up the rear holes on my skid. I'm not sure if it's due to the skid being bent, but the front four holes line up, and then it's a fight to get the rear bolts to line up. Anyone else had this problem?

 

Leave them all loose until they are all in, then torque?
