    Friday night lights down in St Francis. My daughter is on the cheer team. Our Mariners ran it 61 yards for a TD on the 2nd play of the game. Fun!

    Currently just south of Louisville to go on a Jim Beam distillery tour with some friends tomorrow.

    If you ever visit, you owe it to yourself to go to Jack Fry's. One of the best restaurants I've been to and has history dating back to prohibition.

    So. Many. Stickers.
    As long as you don't have safety inspections, cut away. But cutting it in front of the axle on a 4Runner would definitely fail a safety since you're dumping exhaust under a passenger compartment

    I was at the SPASH game last night and it was a blowout against rapids 41-9 Win. Fun to watch SPASH bring home the river jug
    On a different note. How long until one should be worried about an item lost in shipping. So i ordered my foglights August 28th, they shipped August 29th and said they were going to get here September 5th. I will attach thee shipment progress, there hasnt been any updates to it since the 29th.

    Good call on the 4runner axle dump. I checked before I did my access cab. We don't have inspections in WI and from what I found they don't care where the pipe is routed as long as there's a cat and a muffler.

    Incidentally, I decided to look at this yesterday after work. Cutting ahead of the axle wasn't going to work, so I went just behind the axle to get rid of the section that was vibrating against the rear bumper cover. It's quiet again! :yes:

    While contemplating this before the axle dump, I thought about fumes coming up between the bed and cab.
    Then I think about the car I drove before switching to trucks. 1991 Honda Prelude. It's like an Access Cab car with no bed. A 2ft trunk and a 6" ground clearance.
    Didn't have any fumes in there with windows down and sunroof open.
