Northern Virginia Roll Call

Not a Taurus....

 

Definitely will do man. Thanks!

 

Just looked at the ad . Does it still have stock shocks? If so , gotta be bouncy as hell.

 

I'm loving my Sig P320!
I do enjoy shooting a Glock though.

 

I know I've shot .44 Special. I can't remember if I've shot .44 Mag before. I'm not dumb enough to try .500 S&W. I have a .357 Magnum and 25 rounds of that is enough for a sitting. Last time I did that the gun started drawing blood. I prefer to stick with my 9mm Glocks and .45 1911s.

 

I've got some bear loads that will put a red line straight down the middle of your palm from the recoil. The photos were "low recoil" rounds.

 

Speaking of bears,
Caught this guy on the trail cam over the weekend.

 

Where are you going??

 

yes a twin mattress will fit between the wheel wells...if your a short bed it will be bunched up with the tail gate shut

 

he said he has some KYBs on there.... so we'll see. haha I'm checking it out this afternoon around 4:30pm.... Karen wants me to buy a Hybrid.... I want this thing.... so who knows what'll happen.

 

how far is your commute now? would buying a hybrid be worth the gas savings?

 

Dumb question, but does anyone have a ballpark guess as to how high the roof is with a 3" lift? I'm guessing around 5'11"?

 

my commute is 43 miles (57 if I have to bypass traffic / accidents) so I would like to think yes.... but meh.... 35mpg in the black civic hatchback that's a little funner to drive is just as good to me as 45-50 in a civic hybrid haha

 

Yeah probably around 6'. You should be safe in most parking garages, unless they have low hanging pipes for the sprinkler systems. I have taken my truck in garages with 7' listed as the lowest, and never had problems.

 

depends on tire size / inflation, depends on what EXACT lift you go w/....


too many variables.... more details needed

 

my work is 6'8"....

it's going to be kinda close

 

35 vs 45 isnt a big difference. If you were talking 15 vs 45, then yeah, would be worth it. Question is, does that civic actually get 35? If its been taken care of and kept up on maintenance, you should be close. Plus with it scraping the asphalt, you will have low drag haha.

 

We can measure mine before we start if you want and see what it sits at now. Yours might settle a little lower with the winch.

 

yea I will end up doing a full tune up when I get it either way just for my own piece of mind....

so oil change, fuel filter, spark plugs, wires, etc...

yea that sounds like a solid idea. also, remind me, when we start pulling stuff off, to grab ziploc baggies for the hardware... that way nothing gets lost or anything

 

I can try to do a measure sometime this week and let you know. My rear is squatting a bit from not having the AAL installed anymore, but that shouldn't skew the numbers by too much. I need to grab another can of pb from advance tonight. I went out last night and even though there is still stuff in the can, its like it ran out of aerosol so it wont spray anymore. Just a faint hiss. The can is old and been through two moves, so who knows, maybe it got damaged. But so far I have been hitting the bolts every evening. Once I get the new can, I'll do morning and evening so it has more time to penetrate the rust and make it easier on us Saturday (hopefully).
