    Taxes are cheap compared to wife and kids. I'd have a std cab 22re yota and a camper shell on a full size if I was single. Instead I have a 59Ft monstrosity of RV and trailer with a 4dr heavy ass gas hog to cart around a baby bag, capri suns and goldfish. I even found a tabloid mag under the seat.

    Not saying I don't enjoy the wife and kids, but damn$$$$.

    paying over 46k in taxes a year is a bit much, with a house and married.

    no kids

    Still cheaper then kids and way cheaper then kids and a ex-wife...

    rotopax are nice but, after a few dusty trips the locks , if you use them, go bad and you have to drill them out and replace. Im getting a custom 25 gallon DOT approved aux tank that will mount to the back of the bed. I hate those CARB spouts, 11-13 minutes for 3 gallons LOL

    I didn't buy the ones with locks (just the beefier DLX), tanks will only be in when I need them so I didn't think I needed to lock them up.

    I bought the self venting spouts so I don't have to deal with the carb ones for that same reason.

    wish I would had replace the spouts, but for us the aux tank makes more sense.

    not anymore...:)

    Exactly, found a ground cable connected to the block that i hadn't seen before, clean the surface, bolt up tight , started right up....:)

    Get 2 nuts with just slightly over sized threads so they just go over the bolts holding the carrier, make sure they're 3/4" high, snug down, done...:)
