Colorado B.S. Thread

Dang, the $200 Cherokee sold before the guy responded to me.

I’m way too out of shape to ride a bike to work, then I’d get nothing done cuz I’d need to nap when I get there

 

Hey TW! For those that live in Northern CO area, any one have a shop they trust and recommend up here? I'm having some stering problems I can't seem to diagnose. Truck understeers and wanders down the road.
Looking for a good shop that won't say "Nope, couldn't fing anything wrong... that'll be $150." Recommendations requested.
Cheers. and Thanks.

 

@literallynothing or Jake at Raindance Automotive

 

Give Jake at Raindance Automotive a call 970-451-1261 he is awesome, and his shop is right next to mine. Both our shops are in Windsor on crossroads I’d offer to do it, but I’m pulling the cab off of my tow rig tomorrow to tear the heads off the engine so I’ll be booked up the next few days

thank you very much!

 

it's time we discuss my referral fee

 

shoving this truck through boulder today for some errands was a fun exercise in spacial awareness and parking abilities lol

 

Maybe try driving it instead of shoving it

 

it's a ram, did you expect it to run?


the new 6 speeds are quite nice though..not a single complaint about the truck and i appreciated being entrusted with its care

 

Welcome to the club. It’s not a fun place to be driving a 21-22’ long boat

 

Speaking of large trucks, guess I’m pulling the cab off my ford tomorrow and tearing into the motor, so if anyone in noco is a degenerate like me and not working tomorrow, feel free to come drink beer and point and laugh at me

 

Pm me an address, I need a new place to drop by at inconvenient times and annoy/distract people from the productive work they are doing.

 

I guess I should mention, the Mash Lab brewery is about a 5 minute walk from my shop

 

How far from Buc-ee's?

 

doing major work on leap day is unlucky! Beer should cancel out the bad luck BUT bad luck is extra strong on dates such as leap day, Friday the13th, valentines day, etc.

 

I heard they recently got a new food menu too. I need to confirm.

 

im definitely out of practice from my CCLB 6.0 days. already been 5 years now or something? damn lol

fricken degens from upcountry are back at it again huh

 

The vet is pretty certain my 11.5 year old lab has laryngeal paralysis so we are looking at options for surgery. One place I inquired with quoted $5k-$7k

I'm trying to make as many inquiries as possible, but seems like a lot of places are super busy and take a while to get back. Would love any other recommendations for vet surgeons. Messaged VRCC and CSU already, just waiting to hear back

 

Have you tried Wheat Ridge Animal Hospital? I can't guarantee they'll be cheap, but one of our dogs had a couple of major surgeries there and we've been very pleased. He was scheduled to have a cancerous mass removed and threw us a curveball and his spleen started bleeding while we were waiting for the appointment. They adapted the appointment for us and managed both the mass removal and splenectomy in the same appointment. We thought for sure we were losing him and they took excellent care of him. He's like a whole new dog now. We've worked with several people there and they've all been great.

 

We take our dog to Montclair Animal Clinic. We started at a different vet closer to our house and my wife didn't like the way they talked down to her and gave a pretty expensive quote for a teeth cleaning. We went to Montclair to get a second opinion and they were much nicer and a couple thousand dollars cheaper on their estimate. You might find they have a long lead time though. We had to wait a few months for a dental cleaning last fall, but their bill was actually lower than their estimate, so props to them.

 

I did actually and have heard really good things about them. Gonna look at other vets to compare.

Appreciate it, I'll take a look at them.
Edit- called and they do not do the procedure he would need
