    My opinion they are looking @ low bidder. Everything is about $$$$$. Chin up, somehow things work out for the best! Many times a blessing shows from a direction you never saw coming...

    Good morning. Snow and more snow but yesterday was beautiful despite what the weather guessers were saying. Started off the day at 14° but warmed up to low 30°s by midday. Supposed to be 50 tomorrow so guessing the "snow" will be rain tomorrow despite what the weather guessers are saying. But I don't get paid to guess weather just a hunch LOL.

    Picked up half a ton of lead shot for reloading shotgun shells yesterday at a club 75 miles away. Should get me through the summer

    VERY nice especially with the LW barrel! Hope you are enjoying the world of PCP and glad to enable you :p Pretty sure you will have no regrets I know that I don't.

    Congrats Jim that is great! I had to wait until the Ex left before I could start on the journey to debt free. She could spend money faster than I could make it no matter how much I made o_O Getting close now and the closer I get the better the feeling.

    Last fall started looking at T4R both new and used. They incur the "Toyota Tax" used just like the Taco do and are crazy expensive. The Lexus GX 460 is known as the Prado 150 Land Cruiser in the rest of the world and while many think it is a tarted up T4R it is not. And don't incur the "Toyota Tax" despite being at the top of the Toyota food chain. With some work you can basically convert them back to a Land Cruiser and have a V8. And many features you didn't know that you needed until you have them.

    Got my 19 in Nov. with 40K on it at half the price that was on the sticker new that was in the glove box. And prices on them and used vehicles (except Tacos and T4R) are falling like a rock recently. When you look again it may be worth taking a look at them as well.

    Tow rating is 6500 pounds not that I would want to pull that much with such a short wheel base. But for hauling my buggy around to sporting clay shoots in the summer and Canada and the North Shore hunting little brown birds it is perfect IMO. Laying into the skinny pedal to pass someone puts a smile on my face. Gas mileage is about the same as my 13 Taco was except for sitting in traffic, but I don't have to do much of that thank goodness.
