What Have You Done To Your 3rd Gen Today?

Lol.
I've had camping gear for 20 years and still use it. The places I camp generally are free/cheap and I don't ever stay very long . 2 days in a tent is the most I want to do.. depends on what you want and what you buy. A RTT can run $7000 +

Now Glamping .... That can get expensive real quick

 

The lies we tell to attempt to level the financial playing field.

Soon enough we'll be eating bugs for protein and riding bicycles everywhere.

 

The crunchy bottom part of the corn dog that’s on the stick I save till last. And if you put anything else but mustard on a corn dog, you’re an alien.

 

Throw a Quigley on the Express. Good to go!

 

Man!

I've been gone since 1986...the year I joined the USAF and went to Lackland AFB, TX for Basic.

My mother and sister still live there...and I make annual treks outta PHL airport.

Every time I go back, it's like, "I'm so glad I don't live here!"

Nothin' like Lower Slower Delaware (LSD) which is meant for Sussex County but I include the whole State! lol

 

Put on a big sticker!

 

a great place to visit

 

Looks great. Tell me more, this is something I have been needing. Vinyl? The glare off my hood is blinding.

 

Couple size options- claim they will last a couple years. We had to do a little bit of trimming but are pretty picky. I’m happy with it! Will prob do the tailgate later this summer.

I did mine 2 1/2 years ago:



You can see how it flattens the sun on the hood.

 

Oil change on the Tacoma And Dodge

Like for the doggo.

 

Thank you, Diego is 11 yrs

 

Charlie "Chuck" is 11.6 and showing every bit of it lately. He got a prescription for arthritis and a special diet food at the vet the other day. He also got some new toys and new bed at Costco.

 

These stupid dogs live long enough for us. We make all his food for him and give him dog vitamins. A bag of dog food with a shelf life of 25 yrs cant be
good for him. We do Skinless boneless chicken breast,apples,sweet potatos,carrots,chicken livers, with chicken broth in crockpots, Every week. Keeps him young.

 

It's true...as I've gotten older, I don't drive as much.

That and my current job is less than 5 miles one-way.

I've had it set at 10K ever since joining USAA back in the mid/late 90s.

Wife and I are evaluating and dismissing bills we don't want to carry into retirement.

I've had one major accident where insurance had to pay out because my SUV was total loss...and it was less than $5K.

We've given insurance lots of money throughout the years so I wouldn't call this cheating...which I'm hoping you're just joking with me. lol

 

We've been here at Dover since 2006...PCS'd from Ramstein, Germany.

It was quite the transition for our daughters who started new schools...eldest was in HS and the kids called the German Girl. Our youngest started Middle School but she did not mention any nicknames.

There isn't much for teenagers/young adults to do here but there are plenty of historic places that are within 1-2 hours away.

I personally like the Delaware Beaches and set off early to beat the crowds. lol

Now that our daughters are married and working, they have discovered lots of bands they like--playing at venues in the surrounding big cities.

We, as a family have become well acquainted with things we like to do...the only sacrifice is having to get into the car and drive.

I enjoy driving but my wife gets bored in the car...she's a great backseat driver sitting shotgun! lol

If you were talking about L.A. well, next time I'm in town I may catch a Dodgers Game and leave early to beat the crowd leaving the park!

EDIT: PCS=Permanent Change of Station

 

The operative word was cheap. I would not need 4x4 for the stuff I would be doing. Maybe just a set of AT tires and worry about the interior living amenities, roof rack, awning, and that'd be it.

 

Totally understand sir. I do the same evaluation yearly. I feel exactly the same. The money you pay for insurance could have purchased a small vacation cottage, put a kid through community college, or paid your house off 10 years early.

Instead... We pay to live in fear of actually having to use insurance... God forbid we actually put a claim in and ask for money back from the thing we pay into monthly for 40 years.

I feel you .. I'm sick of pinching pennies. And paying for things that I can never use or benefit from.

 

Gonna have a stiff drink by the fire then go shoot something..... Nice
