1st Gen Lunchtable Thread - General Discussion

Oh yeah I forgot about the coyotes, got plenty of those guys around too

Supposedly red foxes are common out here, but I've never seen one

but yeah possums are pretty chill, I think the only reason Dex catches so many compared to anything else is because they aren't very quick...easy pickings lol.

The last one I saw him get just walked right by him while he was on the deck, maybe 10 feet away. Like wtf little dude, are you suicidal

 

We had a working tuxedo cat that kept everything away or she would eat it. Dogs -- not so much.

 

yeah you need a pack of huskies, they'll keep the entire neighborhood's critter population in control

Cats are probably better at doing that though without causing too much chaos

 

Yeah the interviews with other deep sea pilots and submersible designers that all echoed how bad of a choice CF is for that application because of its untested record and how it delaminates etc when things go wrong and that you do not want any kind of layered material for pressurized dives, hence steel, titanium and acrylic being used, makes it even more sad. The fact that they were challenged on many occasions about their design and lack of safety certs etc by other companies and individuals in that world, and just stating that all of that is, "stifling progress," is fucking hubris. This literally being the one sub that has had casualties since operations like the Trieste started diving in the 60s is pretty significant. Like others have said, this is a mature industry, it's not like people just starting doing these dives recently.

 

Lol yeah I don't think they really give a shit, they just sort waddle around where they want. They can climb like bastards though.
The foxes here are pretty savvy and they also won't back down easy. I've been riding my bike and chased by them for a few streets, little shits.

 

They seem like fun

I hear those little ones ride nice. I had a transit and loved it, rode smooth and cargo space was nice. Use to have a express that that thing rode like a cartoon car and cargo space was ass.

 

Weird, haven't looked at new 235s in a while, way more options have popped up versus what used to be available.

 

Haha wonder what would happen if I tried that next time. They were just chasing me for some pets.

 

I dunno man, that one seems pretty domesticated...I feel they could do some damage if they wanted lol

 

I dont like the big promaster cause you can't recline the seat. The little transit is comfy and you can whip it around parking lots and garages easy. I want to get the new one that is 6" longer and white. Hate the red.

 

Hell yeah they can. I wouldn't be reaching out to a wild one haha.
My last encounter was...in my moms 330i, at like 60mph, and one that apparently had a suicidal streak, and got what it wanted.

 

I carry to much shit to have a little one. And now that i want to a new truck i dont want to go back to a van.

 

Lookin at BFG as well as Grabbers, Open Country, Duratracs and maybe Wildpeaks.
These randomly popped up. Not on my list but never heard of a Wrangler Workhorse. Looks like an AT3 competitor kinda tire. Everyone seems to have new ATs out.

 

Its nice to get to shit from the side. Even the high roof promaster sucks to go into when its full of shit and you cant walk in it.

Here, quote from the welding thread since I was a little more specific there

 

Broke down and got a box today. Feel like i'm losing a thousand dollars a year not having one. Damn aug 11 delivery date though.

 

Ah, gotcha. Thanks, I was just curious.

 

@eon_blue BTW, you ever get that new camera setup from your boss?
