Well... where are the numbers?!?!

 

Hopefully it won't be too bad!

 

Little chilly this morning, but thankfully no snow in the forecast. @mach1man001 hopefully not too much snow for you! How do those things drive in the snow anyways? I'm thinking maybe since this is your first year you might not know either! Good luck on the drive!


Last wedding today..100 people w/ 15 kids included in that. Great couple. I'm excited for multiple reasons!


I'm sort of ready for winter. But I would love to have until mid-december before any real snow falls. Next week if the rain holds off will be a big prep week for me. I need to trim back all the trees growing into our field and over-reaching. If you let that stuff go, you won't have a field left after a while...Got a few hours of brush hogging in the woods areas to do as well. If any city guys want an fun weekend playing with chainsaws and brush hogs, just let me know! Kids who can drag small trees are welcome too


Have a good weekend everyone!

 

I like using saws!

 

Come on by! We can see if your truck can make it to the top of the mountain on my trails, might want to install a roll cage first though just in case

 

Only at 6 psi still but 180hp 240 tq to the wheels on a mustang dyno. Brand new STI’s only put down like 205 on those dynos so the tuner said I’m probably at like 250-260 crank. The tq is amazing full 6psi at like 3k

Today I'm breaking out my FF kit. I despise how that junk smells. I'm going to try to prep the Vette, truck and garage for winter today.

 

I don't know how much Fluid Film you have left, but when you run out, I recommend Wool Wax. It doesn't smell nearly as bad as Fluid Film, and it is supposed to stick better than FF, but I have to see how WW stands up through this winter. I know @jpereira2 used WW this year as well.

 

2nd that (jpereira2)did a superb job with my truck.

 

Just did a massive garage clean up and put the bikes away for the year

 

I've got an unopened gallon. I plan on transitioning once I run out.

 

Before:

After:



I washed the truck twice, once with the foam cannon, then by hand and put a coat of Meguiars Quick Wax on the truck, got the new wheels swapped and put on the Weathertech no drill mud flaps. Tires are a full 2” taller (34”). I love the new look!

 

I know they are Michelins AT tire but they still look like street tires. The truck looks good though

 

Haha when y'all working on it?

 

Yep, but let’s be honest... this truck won’t see anything worse than snow or a dirt road. The on road traction with the Michelin’s are great in any weather condition which is really what I was after.

 

Yup doesn't smell as bad and also doesn't seem to be as messy.

Thank you sir. Doing one last truck tomorrow and then preparing for next year lol

 

Looks great! New wheels really set it off!

The trail is there! Bulldozer guy would only go so far, but I think a Tacoma might be narrow enough to make it!
