Oregon and Washington BS thread

haha nope, working for boeing for 5 days welding

damn, well let me know if you have time to go from the 1st till the 5th, maybe go to browns camp or somthing if not sand lake

 

I think you climb in from the bottom. Or a rope lader

 

Anyone want to go wheeling out at Gifford Pinchot on Jan3-5? I'm setting up a bit of an adventure...

 

Id be so down if it wasn't 200ish miles away lol

 

Anything good out there? I haven't been around that area and have always wanted to check it out.

 

Not going to be pulling a gooseneck with that thing!

 

Working, otherwise this would be good

 

LOL Mike you find the funniest shit on youtube. I can't hear the music since I'm at work but just watching the clip on silent is funny enough for me.

 

Sounds good to me, are you thinking a one day wheel, or a a multi day thing?

LOL Just watched the video at home!! Even more epic hahah thanks Mike

 

so im looking at getting a new radio for my runner.

what do you guys think of this
http://www.crutchfield.com/p_500CDE122/Alpine-CDE-122.html?tp=5684

really the only reason i want to change the radio is so that i can have an aux input to plug my phone into to listen to music.

how hard is it to install this myself? or does anyone know a good place in corvallis

 

I like Alpine's. I've probably bought about 5 of them for all the different rigs I've owned.

Install is super easy if you buy from Crutchfield and get the wiring harness and dash kit. Follow the wiring diagram and solder (or twist) the wires together. Be cautious working on your dash. You'll be fine.

If you want to have it installed, I recommend Audiofiles on 9th street across from Chevron

 

2V preouts is crappy (ask me how i know), but if all you are trying to do is gain the input, then no worries. I'd be tempted to sell you mine so I could upgrade, but I think I want too much at $100

I have a love/hate. They do great with the controls, but it chafes me that so many of their models require aftermarket expansion units to get up to 4V preouts, or add crossovers, all of which SHOULD be standard for the price point.
I think Pioneer does a better job, but everything is blue I think my next unit is going to be Kenwood, which used to be more complex than landing on the moon, but they've gotten better now.

I would hesitate to do solder, as I think it would snap over time. If you twist, do both a twist and a solder, then heatshrink. It takes time, but is a clean, robust solution. Solder to increase the connection, heatshrink to avoid crossing wires. Really, inline auto splices are pretty much the way to go if you want a tradeoff between sturdiness and time.

 

I'm ready.

 

Sorry that was my first thought and I didn't check myself

 

Must be OZ-T's back yard

 

Where is that?!

I wouldn't mind giving them some shade...
