    @BAMATOY that ride is up around Nashville. Primm Springs/Leipers Fork/Columbia TN area. It’s a trail area called dirt devil trail. Website is https://tndirtdevil.com/. Mostly creeks and public access roads. I wouldn’t come to it unless you live in the area. You could camp around the Natchez Trace Pkwy.

    I have heard that snow could be an issue if it builds up. Not really an issue in Huntsville of course, LOL.

    Yep, auto hobby shop at the Arsenal said they could do it as well. Ask the dealership what they want and let us know (I already know, its absurd).

    Ok guys, we've got some timber land out in Coosa County that I started building trails on last year. Need some advice on clearing land enough to make some good Tacoma trails. There's old logging trails that cut through the middle and stop on a plateau, those are easy enough to clear and provide a good central location to shoot some trails off from. There's some great little creeks that could be part of the trail, too.

    I really don't want to rent a bobcat or backhoe. Well, my wife doesn't. We are one and never disagree... But given the terrain (steep, sharp turns to avoid bigger pines), I doubt it would do great anyways. At my disposal, I have a polaris ranger, chainsaw, shovels, dogs, me, weedeater, other random yard stuff. No friends with ATVs, no liability insurance to cover dumbassery. Anyone have any tips on making this easier on myself sans heavy machinery?

    harbor freight made my day knocking 20% off a new Daytona jack, and about 50% off a grease gun. I didn’t even ask for this stuff. Guy just said here buddy.

    They’re not suppose to apply coupons to jacks it even says it on the coupon

    I know this was discussed a few thousand posts ago but....

    Daughters foot slipped on slider getting out of the truck this morning and she had a hard fall. I think I remember someone posting a link to something on Amazon they were using. Skateboard tape maybe? Could you please post again? Thanks!!!

    So here I am at the salon and I see how they get away with $30+ a haircut. Place is exquisite :hattip:

    Shall see how it goes now. It was rated small business of the year in 2016 when opened.

    Some salons give a glass of wine or a beer too. You do get treated quite well at actual salons.

    Where. That’s a steal.

    Mine was 35 + a tip of 5. I thought about not tipping bc damn 35, but my cheapass said even 40.

    She shampoo my hair conditioned super nice stuff, then some massage, then cut, then rinse to get loose hair out, followed by some styling. I thought it was a great experience, but they do all that hoping you buy the product they used.

    As soon as I got to the truck I combed my hair down bc I don’t do the whole Clark Kent look
