    That looks to be a poorly executed long island to me.

    Well I mixed the layers because the funky glass was threatening to ice slide all over me. So it did originally have a better presentation.

    Edit.. and it is red Robin... So there's that.

    This would have cleared up any confusion on the original posting.

    The taco burger was pretty good. Endless steak fries could've used a bit more flavor.

    Big thanks to Brian @thefatkid for his work installing 4.88's in my truck! I've been doing the drive easy thing and I can say the regear is a big improvement over the oem 3.90's. I feel very fortunate and lucky to have had Brian extend his professional work to weekend work and helping me out. Top notch work by a top notch person! :thumbsup:

    You're welcome, Hope they work out well for you. I was thinking that I should have done a learned memory reset on your transmission after the re-gear. I didn't because I was not sure what shifting point/feel tuning did to that. If you want to try it at the gear oil change, let me know.

    Anyone have a reliable and reputable electrician they can recommend in the Superior area? So far I can't seem to find one up here that will call back to discuss my needs, I guess business is good :rolleyes:

    Residential? Not sure if he gets that far west, but I had 2 good experiences with Sean Lewis, owner of Lewis Electric in Thornton, 303-912-8408. He upgraded our service panel when we did a furnace and AC replacement last spring. He also ran some new 15A circuits as a separate job. On time, on budget, very tidy work.

    Not saying one big battery is better then 2 but it has worked well for me for the past 4 yrs. I am considering picking up a folding solar set up with battery minder to trickle charge it at camp. Folding set up allows me to optimize charge since it will not be attached to the truck. Also wanting to grab one of those little jump packs for when it might need a jump. Unfortunately my ABS module is in the way to do the best dual battery set up and better distribute the weight side to side. I prefer NOT to put over 100lbs of battery in the front corner of the truck although my new G31M is 78lbs. This leaves me with a bed battery which I might still do someday but not sure it's necessary. So I guess I will never get those bonus #EAF points :pout:. Doesn't matter I will make them up in Mall Crawling points. :humble:

    Well damnit its no longer available. What did you pay for that one?

    I have been looking at this one and the slightly smaller one they have too. Batteries Plus had the smaller one for $99.99

    I think it was 60 or 70 bucks. Had good reviews but I still haven't tested it.
