Army Green thread: let’s keep it green!

Yup, $149 accessory. Mine were one of the items my dealer threw in the deal.

 

Those lights are a nice option to have. Id rather have an on/off switch back in the bed though.

 

Thanks. But honestly, me having to wait a few days more for the delivery of my truck is nothing. Compared to what some people are going through right now.

 

Great perspective, my friend.

 

Just got this from my dealer! Quite a fitting picture during these times.

 

Awesome. Both the event and the picture!!!!

 

Thanks. I'd almost nominated the pic for the TW calendar.

 

A few pics of a very dirty AG - warm weather, melting snow, muddy roads then another 14" of the white stuff Thursday - love the way it handles. Yup, stopped at Costco for a few things, left due to the long lines and the few Items I wanted were not even in stock. No, I wasn't looking for toilet paper - LOL

 

I'd vote for it.

 

Looking good! I'm not getting much time in mine - too cold to work on it, yet and pretty much everything is shut down here in PA to try to curb the virus spread. Plus, I generally drive my Subaru for work related stuff...and the whole college is working from home.

 

I hear you, I have 379 miles and 100 of then are from driving home from the dealership up in Denver. I did take my wife to work in the snow storm to see how it handled, other than a few errands that is it. I did get the tonneau and Yakima rack and platform installed. A few smaller mods then I am done.

 

I'm at about 800 miles on mine so I'm a little ahead of you. I don't have too much left to do - have the MESO head light surrounds to put on and I was able to snag one of his Stage ! Total Tail Light kits - should arrive Monday. I'll be done at that point, I think.

Right now things are crazy here in PA. Panic buying, everything non-essential including car dealerships closed. Tried to get the safety inspection done on the Subaru last week before things we closed down and they were out of State stickers. On the good side, we are all stocked up on food, wine, bourbon and anything else we might need. Right now April 3rd is the date to lift the closures...but we'll see.

 

We are in the same boat here, the entire state is on non-essential closure even the bases here. Restaurants are allowed to do carry-out and delivery only. The Governor has allowed liquor sales without the required license for carry-out to help the restaurants but no public seating anywhere. State and National parks are still open and free to let people get outside a little.

I am on satellite for phone and internet and glad I am. Some of my colleagues are having band width issues due to the volume being used by everyone staying home.

 

We went to my local Costco this morning and expected frantic and stressed out shoppers. I am glad to report that the shopping experience turned out to anything but.
The employees have organized the entire purchasing procedure. WAY better than the chaos of 3-weeks ago. You stand in line outside the entrance and they let in groups of 15 people as 15 left. I think we waited 15-20 minutes tops. Once your admitted the store was very comfortable to shop in with plenty of room to move around.
They hired more employees as “lane routers” who’s only job was to funnel people through to the water and paper goods section as well as the cashier line. They finally started rationed water and toilet paper to put an end to hoarding (you know who are). My store had enough bottled water to hydrate a small town of residents if necessary. Shoppers were basically ignoring all aisles of the store that didn’t carry food or beverages. We found everything we needed, including water and TP, but zero paper towels. Congrats to the Tustin, CA location!

 

Similar here. Restaurants for carryout only. No order to close non essential businesses yet though. Grocery store shelves bare. Took the last two days of from work waiting on Taco delivery. Dealer delivery today may have been a blessing. Rather than sitting around the house me and the wife made good use of the time. Hit every grocery store within 10 miles every day. We have at least 30 days of food and supplies stocked up. Not counting the multiple 5 gallon pails of beans, rice and pasta I have stored in milar bags in food grade buckets. No hoarding as we only took one or two items we found from each store. We do have other supplies that I'll keep hush....hush...such as 5.56 and 9mm.
And to your point.
Bourbon...... Not an issue. Seems we think the same.

 

Looks like your Costco is smarter than ours. They did let about 250 people in when they opened than were letting 15 new shoppers in when 15 left. The problem is they let the hording go too long so a lot of items were already gone and the few things I wanted were listed on the board outside as being out-of-stock. I did talk to one of the employees about when would be a good time to come back down the hill (it is 1.5 hours away for me), he was happy to suggest a date when weekly deliveries are made. With the line from the entrance around to the back of the building and only a few items left on my list (all non-essential) I decided to head back up the hill for home. I didn't go down for a Costco run, had another errand that I did need to make so it wasn't a total waste of time and I got to drive the Taco - all good...

 

When this is all over, we should have an AG Pro meet-up on the Bourbon Trail...I might need a reload by then. We are also well stocked with everything...5.56 and .45 are my go-tos although I have taken a liking to a 300 AAC Blackout I built last summer.

Stay home. Stay safe. Stay Healthy. And....Stay Thirsty, my Friends!

 

I could do a road trip for a Bourbon Trail run. We live so remote we always have a 30-45 day stock on hand but that is due to our location, plus .40 M&P's both carry (Shield) and full size, not to mention my hunting tools -

Agree- everyone be smart and safe and of course stay hydrated

 

I was thinking the same thing. A Kentucky adventure I think is order this year.
Sounds like a plan..

 

Seems we think the same also. My EDC. I think we 3 have plans after this all blows over.
