    If you've seen my previous posts like @jmdaniel has, you'll know I'm not at the top of my game right now :bananadead::D. Or maybe I'm being too honest to throw off suspicions of dishonesty, if I'm being honest...

    Bad news- Cant make it to the meet up at Zilker on the 17th :annoyed:


    Good news- Boss man approved my time off next month so I'll be throwing snow in ol red in Breckenridge and also eating snow (possible acl tear) on the slopes.

    Bitter sweet for sure...

    What if we took over someplace like Oxford Ranch?

    Plenty of dirt around that area to explore.

    Yes. My intention is to go to this one. All pending potential house showings as we go back on the market on the 9th :fingerscrossed:

    Do you guys ever feel nervous just off roading/dailying your rigs? Some of you have some easy mods that can be damaged or stolen from arseholes around town.

    I look at the resale values of these trucks and it drops my jaw. These 1st gen tacomas are near diesel import prices.

    I worry about it all the time. These people in my neighborhood will steal the shoes off your feet.

    Somewhat.
    There's only so much you can do to prevent damage/theft.
    If they are determined enough, or have the time, not much will stop them.

    It's a gamble.

    Note to self. Meet Chad @ public places outside his hood.

    Scary to think about for sure. As an insurance agent, its pretty cool to see how much insurance can save your ass though (depending on what company you're with).

    After the hurricane, my family's homes got pretty rattled down in rockport and that being my hometown, I figured there would be no way they'd recover anytime soon. Lots of progress being made down there and millions of cars replaced after the flood in houston metro as well.

    On the other hand, if people want to get sticky fingers they can say hello to mr. glock in the console :)
