    Ha ha ha...HA HA HA...HAHAHA!

    This is my only option. There is no cell service, I run a Verizon network extender off my router. I'm contracted at 20Mbps DSL, and this is what I had this morning. I have opened a tech support case, but JFC on a pogo stick, this sucks!

    Didn't have the heart. I own my house, I've been there when the sewer stack gets backed up. There are no words to describe life experiences like that.
    Oh man... you really can't go wrong with either one. Didn't the older Radflows rust out really badly though? Are they the old Swayaways? I would give King the edge just for the pure sex appeal so I can live vicariously through you!
    Congratulations! :cheers:

    I had Radflos on my 4Runner and they corroded/rusted to shit so quickly it wasn't even funny...

    The Kings on my FJ lasted much better.

    I've been researching shocks the past few weeks. It seems with the T4R/GX460/Land Cruiser crowd, it's ADS > Radflow > King's. I was about to purchase Icon again, but I may go with Dobinsons instead. I don't think I'll ever wheel the 4Runner hard/fast enough to need reservoirs.

    You researched and planned that whole trip with AOL speeds? Damn. I’m impressed :D

    that is one thing I do appreciate about the city. It’s only providence but we still have pretty much everything. Except Uber eats where their service boundary is literally the other side of the street but not mine, and Ethiopian food. There used to be a restaurant but not anymore.

    If everything goes right for me then I’d be a day trip out there Saturday on that other TW thread.

    I'm done with Icon shocks. I've had 2 sets now on 2 different trucks and they never fit the way they should. The bushings were never sized properly for the bolt or the width of the shock mount and resulted in a clunking noise. Both sets were removed shortly after purchasing and resold. For the Ford crowd, Fox and King are the big sellers. If I had FU money, I'd throw a Carli kit with Kings on the 250 in a heartbeat but I'm more in the Bilstein budget for now...

    I had no issues with the Icons I had on the Tacoma. I've heard their quality and customer service is hit or miss though.

    That green wood I was trying to split. I got through one tree today and started in the next one. Some godawful stuff. Picture of how deep my wedge went with no split. Tried up and down. Moved it to sit in the sun will try again in a month if I don’t get a splitter rental or something. This tree has no give to it :D even the sides. Was mostly just going for a half or quarter split for now to season it a bit better for a few weeks before splitting. Not a chance. Got some more from a neighbor this morning, if I get a wood stove put in, the “junk” stuff they listed for free on Facebook will heat my house for probably two days.

    has anyone had any experience putting a wood stove inside the fireplace? Would be my preference and not take up more floor space for the wood stove. I know it would be small but that’s fine.

    well I guess that’s a horrible picture but this thing went in about 2 inches and the log just laughed at me like now what bitch.

    So, to summarize, you put in all 2 inches and she just laughed at you? :snicker:
