    When I was younger, a guy we used to ride with had one of those and we hated when he came along. It was so slow! One of us has a little Bayou 220 that would blow it out of the water. I'd imagine they'd be a great work horse but I hated riding trails with one of them.

    I listen to sword and scale, and dateline if you like murder

    Also listen to the podcasts that my favorite bravo people do, but I have a feeling that's not your cup of tea hahaha

    Yeah, it probably tops out around 40mph or so, and it takes a while to get there. But, that's still about 20mph faster than I'm interested in going on a quad :laugh: I've always had more fun chugging around in the woods on them anyway.

    I bought it because I wanted something for ice fishing, for 'commuting' to camp during the summer, moving the boat trailer around, dragging deer out of the woods, etc. I've never been a big 'trail rider'

    Anyone have a small dash cam they like? I'm considering the Garmin Dash Cam Mini because of its size (though it's expensive and reviews are hit or miss). Everything else looks pretty large and I don't have a lot of windshield real estate if I want to keep it somewhat hidden.

    I found this which would make powering it super easy: https://smile.amazon.com/SimpleUSBP...944359055695#customerReviews&sa-no-redirect=1

    I've listened to Dateline before. I listen to Forensic Files all the time to fall asleep to. What is Sword and Scale about?

    I have absolutely NO interest in reality TV never yet the people involved in it! You're o_O for watching it! Lol

    I have such limited space there. The EZPass transponder is on one side, the other side is open but there's a photo sensor on the back of the rearview mirror for the auto dimming feature that I probably shouldn't have something in front of. That's why I was hoping for something very small that I could fit behind the mirror without blocking the sensor.

    I'll take a look, thanks.

    I put my ez pass on the top corner of the windshield on the passenger side. I don’t acknowledge it exists.

    to be fair. That’s where it was on the Mazda. Still haven’t done the Velcro things for the Tacoma yet. But right now I use tolls so infrequently I just leave it in the glove box and chuck it on my dash when I need it.

    I recently installed a Viofo A129 Duo Pro that I picked up on a lightning sale on Amazon. Very clear 4K front and 1080 rear. No problem reading plates out the front at a decent distance.

    Just got in from the worst tire rotation i’ve ever experienced in my life. The wheels were seized real good to the hubs. I finally resorted to loosening the lugs and doing circles in a parking lot until I heard a thud. I kicked and beat on the wheels with a rubber mallet, used PB Blaster on the hub, put the weight of the truck down with the lugs loose and turned the tires, loosened the lugs and shook the hell out of the truck, the corrosion was pretty impressive. Really pissed a Rodman Ford, I had never seize on the wheels when it was in the black truck and I paid them to swap the wheels when I bought the white truck. There wasn’t even a tiny trace of the never seize so i’m thinking they wiped it all off! In total, today’s tire rotation took about 5 hours, longest of my career.

    Morning y'alls. Just got back from a week off, sledding in Aroostook County, ME. Anything special happen here while I was gone or just a bunch of BS as usual?

    I experienced the world's longest tire rotation, relearning just how important never seize is on hubs.

    How'd the Ferd tow? You get all your towing stuff set up truck-side?
