    no the sleds usually don't even make it down that far. She's at the end of a cul de sac after it flattens out.

    Now there is a guy with a Dodge Challenger that's shoveling a path up the entire street to get his car out. I went out and offered to pull him up but he said no I'm determined to make a path through "their snow park".

    Some flags and center console divider... lots of things on the wanted list.
    Still 115 calories (or something) per claw. So it isn't really any better calorie wise. Just Carb-wise.

    The claws helped me drop 15 lbs when I switched to them exclusively. But they started giving me worse headaches so haven't been drinking them lately. Sometimes I would add vodka to them because otherwise I'd go through a 12 pack easy lol

    I switched over to almost exclusively drinking Makers and soda water and really dont want to drink anything else these days. Plus James Bond drank them so they have a manly pedigree. Still fat tho

    One of my new year's resolutions was to drink less beer. I love the stuff but it's just full of calories and I don't want a beer gut. White Claws might be in my future, my gf always has them around anyways. I don't like them as much as an IPA, but I don't hate them either...

    I had my E-Brake freeze up on me when I was up at Gallagher a few months ago in the snow. We went to leave and as I started to drive the rear was sliding sideways and felt like I was dragging it through the snow, couldn't figure out what was going on. I locked the rear and after a nice little pop all was good.

    Damn, I wish I had gone with 17" wheels, I love the size on my 295s but there are hardly any options for that size on 16s.

    Just gotta start drinking straight whiskey on the rocks...

    Locking the rear diff doesn't work for me lol. It just gives it enough power to push through the brake and turn the wheel. Once I unlock it, it's stuck still. I tried beating on it with a mallet last winter too and that didn't work. The only thing that works for me is shaking the e-brake line where it goes into the drum.

    Hm, wonder what they did, open up the drum and see if there was any moisture in it? I'm past my 30k warranty and I don't think the remaining powertrain warranty covers brakes. Damnit. This never happened when my truck was stock. Wonder if it's from water crossings.

    Yeah, I don't see what the big deal is with them. Just buy bubbly or lecroix and dump a shot into it. Same thing.

    Or just not drink daily if you're concerned about weight. I only imbibe on weekends now. My bourbon and scotch actually last more more than a few weeks now lol.

    I wanna say they replaced the cable inside there, but im not 100% sure. But i do know my co-workers truck was stock and it happened to him so its really just hit or miss. Just never but the E brake on problem solved haha.

    And compared to my old KO2s with extreme cupping, these KM3's are smooth. Still a little rubbing going on, i think i need to get some more castor, and do a little trimming.

    I remember you posted about that hill last year as I wanted to check it out.

    CCLs and CCLs are everywhere. Feeding cats, squirrels, crows as if these rodents don't have enough food already AND the human psychosis that the vermin will not survive without "her" providing... cuckoo...

    .177 solves those land/air rodents.

    EDIT:
    1st CCL is crazy cat lady
    2nd CCL is crazy crow lady

    Careful killing crows, they're smarter than dogs and cats. They've also shown to remember faces and hold grudges. you dont want to end up like Tippy Hedron[​IMG]

    An unusually high amount of pinstriping.
    I'm in the same boat. I've gotten to the point of not setting the e-brake if it's going to be below freezing.

    Hm. I guess I'll just let the poor transmission take the abuse in the winter then lol.

    How's the noise on the highway? I'm inbetween MT/Rs and the KM3s for my next tires.
