    I spend some time on the mountain haha.

    The 99 has pretty much only been started when it snows the last few years, which hasn’t helped the rust situation. The bitch still runs like a top though for 290k

    I’m so torn! I was on the way home to change the diff oil in my new 5.29’s! I just put an ARB locker in the front too! I’ve not been on here because I’ve been busting my ass working on that thing.

    all i can say is count your blessings it wasnt an accident where your father ended up with a 135k ER bill and someone suing (Even though they were found at fault. but the states retracted that statement.) its a mess!

    Well my hobbies cause me problems on this site sometimes. And I talk about it too much probably.
    my biggest worry is driving somewhere remote and it breaking in half.

    not a good time, specially in the winter
