In that case have I got a gun for you

 

You'd better keep that thing, that's a classic!

 

FTFY.

I've got an old Ithaca (technically an SKB, actually) double in 20ga that I use for Partridge/grouse. Nice little shooter.


Edit: Actually, that reminds me of a story...
When I was about 16 or so my cousin had an exchange student during hunting season who decided he wanted to go out with us. We gave him an accelerated gun safety course and set him up with an H&R 12ga single loaded with 00 Buck. Took him out in the woods, put him up against a tree, and told him to keep a sharp eye out.
About an hour later we hear that H&R go off, so after waiting a few minutes (to have a shot at a deer on the run, in case he'd missed) we all trooped back over to his tree.
Well, it turned out that we were so busy teaching him gun safety, where to sit, how to walk quietly in the woods, how to sit move slowly, etc, that we'd completely forgot to tell him that when you're out hunting deer, you only shoot at deer. A rabbit had run about 10 yards in front of him, and he shot it. At 10 yards. With 12ga 00 Buck.
That rabbit looked like the wreck of the Titanic: There was the head in one spot; the hind legs and tail in another spot, and 15 feet of debris in the middle.

 

Ya it isnt going any where just busting your balls or shoulder

 

I have a Mosin for that now so I can still get my fix.

 

Well no new frame for me .

 

what was the overall condition of your frame? any questionable spots that were almost holes...not looking forward to my inspection on the 29th of next month

 

Officially unenrolled from ULowell! Working on getting my $500 back

 

Trade the fucker in and drop down to an SR5 tundra. I think you can still get the bronze.

 

Finally placed the order on some 5100's, only took me 2 years of telling myself "soon ill order a lift" Now i just have to find the time to throw em in.

 

I think the new F150 comes in a similar bronze also

 

Congrats Fred. What is your plan for the front springs?

 

You two are trouble plus I like the GM fullsize better then the tundra and f150

A lot of surface rust. I hit pretty much everywhere with a punch and hammer before I brought it in. No holes .im going to get it coated and most likely get rid of it.

 

So did I. I definitely had a heavy bias toward Chevy. Test drive swayed me.

 

Just had a new dodge 1500 w hemi as a rental. Let's just say there may or may not bea good amount of rubber left on various parts of south western WV. The thing rode really well off-road, so much nicer than the furd F150 we usually get as a rental. Not a fan of the dial as a gear selector though, pretty ghey if you ask me. I constantly found myself searching for the column shifter, especially when backing up. That singular thing would cause me to seriously consider not purchasing one if I was in the market. Had an 8spd trans too. Too much stuff to break.

 

Currently sitting in O-hare dining beer wearing my B's hat at a restaurant with blackhawk crap all over the place

 

same here, except I got two areas that are about 75% gone but no holes, I feel the same about trading mine, upgrade to a DCLB but damn they are asking 27k for a 2011 with 70k miles I got a 07 with 82k, they are nuts with the prices...for a brief second I thought about going back to a titan but I remembered the 12 city mpg...

 

Admittedly I haven't followed the other threads on the frame coating but if you have it applied instead of getting re-framed and your frame then fails are you still elgible for a new one or are you SOL?

27K for a 2011 truck is ridic considering you can get into a base model one for around that price with favorable financing.

 

I believe you are eligible for a buyout at that point. You get another 10 yrs or something warranty on your frame after the coating. If it fails pretty sure they buy it back, at least that's what happened with the 1st gens
