    Winter in Hungry Horse is beginning to wear on me. I live on a flat lot. That's all snow.

    Reminds of home in Tahoe. Glad I don't have to shovel this anymore. Snow gets to the telephone lines on good seasons.

    None of the above. Almost went to Garmisch, but decided not to. Ohio, Breckenridge, and Big Mountain - AKA Whitefish Mountain Resort.

    Thanks. My wife and I lived in Garmisch (actually Partenkirchen) for over ten years and I worked in Munich. Our two sons worked for AFRC in Garmisch for several years and loved it. Now they are working and living in Big Sky.

    Single point slings do suck. Unless you are standing still all day and have a light gun they are a major PITA.

    Just got some bindings and boots for my snowboard. I've quit boarding a long time ago once I jumped on skis. I love skiing but last time I went home to Tahoe I brought back my snowboard. I plan on hitting whitefish next Friday and Saturday.

    Hey @Blackdawg, thanks for pointing out the air filter. Drove out to Mammoth today to show the wife a small, snowy part of Yellowstone, and got 18.5 mpg coming back. Tank averaged ~ 15.5 but some heavy head winds on the way there definitely dropped the average. The truck felt like it has a lot more power, and held 5th gear well, and even spent some time in 6th! Only my first trip, so we'll see how it pans out, but it's looking promising so far.

    Still laughing at myself for overlooking the easiest, most obvious check.

    You might want to clean your Mass Air Flow Sensor.
