UTAH (and Surrounding Areas) BS Thread

Also, the SLC office of the FBI is looking for accounting/finance specialized Special Agent candidates. I think your background could qualify you if you're interested. The initial application takes like 4 friggin hours to fill out, and if you make the cut, the rest of the application process take MUCH longer. Filling out an SF-86 is pure torture.

If you've ever been on a non-govt related trip to Russia though, you're disqualified for 10 years from date of travel.

 

Dammit!

 

I was under the impression that the odometer is independent of gearing because it is measured at the tire? At least that is the case for the 2nd Gens on?

 

Not sure. I think it might be at the tire as well, but the affects of gearing would also be seen at the tire (drive shaft turning more revs). My hwy RPM's are like 3000 with the gears and 33's.

 

I got what you were explaining and showing in the graph. It was because of that post I looked into this more. The part I was confused about was the speed sensor in the auto vs MT. I didn’t know they were in different locations and I can’t believe I missed that in all of my research. I have a scangaugeII so I guess once I regear I can adjust that to use (as I do now for the larger tires) for my speed. I’m going to look into the Dakota Digital module too.

 

LOLZ! I'll burn down my truck...

 

Nah! You'll be good, just be cautious.

 

Who needs a snowblower when you have a truck!?

In all seriousness, I have no idea how tall a snowblower is since our driveway faces south and melts out in a day or two. There's about 42" from the truck bed to the sleeping platform inside, would that fit your snowblower? You would also still be able to use the full footprint of the bed since it just clamps on like a regular camper shell. I've had no issue moving couches and other large items with the drifter on.

I've also just used a friend's trailer when I need to move really large items.

 

It is basically just a canopy like any other. Its just the roof does a flippy-do and makes a house. Now if you invariably build out the interior...

 

Yeah Drifter for me as well.

@SenatorBlutarsky - Truck is looking good with yours on there!

 

So if it was Soviet govt related I’m good right?

 

My interior is built out, but it's all connected through a few bolts to the bed. I can remove the whole thing in 10-15 minutes...


I'd probably go a different route if I used my truck for large items on a regular basis, but for the random chore it's really not a problem.

 

Anyone used Master Muffler in Kearns for Exhaust work? I'm finally getting my re-route done for my skids and was quoted 200-250$ for the job which seems reasonable. Just want to make sure they arent gonna rice burner my truck with shoddy work. No muffler work, nothing else fancy just the re-route. The welder seemed like a good guy when I was under the truck with him.

 

This is what I was looking for.

Yeah, I need a snowblower. My driveway is north facing and my wife kids struggle to get out if it's not done. If I don't get to it soon enough (which, is all the time), then it becomes a 6" thick ice field.

Damn! Impressive. Almost too nice for me.

 

I can't get to my cyrillic keyboard at the moment but if I can get the spelling right

my ne dolzhny byli govorit' ob etom, chuvak

 

I love everything about my house except for the north facing driveway. That alone makes me want to move every winter.

 

That was a hot tip you gave me before I bought this place.

 

100%

 

I've got a bad facing driveway as well. but luckily, it's so windy here that the snow tends to get blown off and to the other side of the street. Makes shoveling very easy.
