    Let’s do 1 cement. Let me think on the color for the 2nd one. Then bright colors are nice, will help you not forget your shovel placement at night.
    I wish they made a glow in the dark paint worth a shit.

    That would be sick! But alright brother just let me know, I’m working on 2 more today!

    Appreciate it man, the starting price on these will be $120 and can go up depending on Paracord colors/shovel (let’s say if you want the head black and the shaft/handle red etc.)

    Define doomsday.

    500 to 600 rds per range trip
    4 or 5 range trips a year.
    200 rds for back yard shooting once a month.
    It adds up....
    But it is not doomsday amount.

    You are free to make your own assessment of what qualifies as doomsday.

    I know people who think that over 500 rounds total is absurd, and I know people who think that anything under 1000 per caliber is inadequate. It's all in your perspective.

    Add me to the list.

    I am blessed to have enough land to do it. And enough neighbors shoot and hunt on their plots, that nobody complains about gunshots.

    I am 20 min from AL, but, fortunately, not in AL. I do not have a sister I could have married.

    Any of y’all do your own alignments? I need to adjust the toe on one of my cars, the steering wheel is off center.

    Question:

    I'm at Discount Tire for new Cooper 265-75-16s. I moved my appt. up because I have to travel 600 miles for my grandmother's funeral. They accidentally ordered 285s and only have two 265s in stock. They are offering the 285s to me for the same price as the 265s. What do you think? I commute 75 miles daily. 90% pavement princess.

    I personally think the wider tires kill my gas mileage... I'm on 285/70/17's... when I ran 265/75/17 on my Access Cab, gas mileage was a lot better--even with RTT, camper shell, Decked in that truck... I of course have the sail of a GFC on my current DCSB, but gas mileage was still worse even before I put on the GFC... both trucks lifted similar-- X factor is the tires... again IMHO... I'm sure you'll get other responses...

    You got a 2nd Gen right? Those trucks could give 2 shits about the bump in tire size. Now the 3rd Gen, not so much. You begin to feel the drag of the tire much more so. My 2nd rolled out with 33s…but again, my taco isn’t built for commuting. So I have helped you none :(

    10-4. They're going to drive over to Loganville to pickup the other two tires. Apparently whoever was fulfilling orders scanned them wrong.

    Again, IMHO, you'll be happier on the gas mileage... JB wants you to go to 33's...

    BTW... I'm looking for a set of 285/75/16's... do they happen to be Cooper AT3's and which Discount Tire are you at? Hah... please don't think that was the reason for my whole post-- I wasn't trying to throw you off and steal your 285's... I legit believe the wider tires really drop my mileage but I'm going to 16's, I need tires, and I don't daily drive my truck.... thx
