    Yeah I thought the exact same thing when I'd see them, that people just wanted the look or maybe it was to somehow make it hard for dogs to mess up the bottoms of fences.

    I had one of their early handhelds and that digital slim vacuum they did and everything died so fast I gave up on em. Wonder how well the M18 will do...sounds interesting.

    The brief period I was working at walmart and they switched house brand to coopers from goodyear they were heavy and a trick to to balance... not impossible or hard but usually took 1-2/3rd the weight

    The set I had on my 01 4 runner sucked on wet pavement and mud but did really good to "float" on sand at the beach, good highway tire... quiet and smooth at speed

    Yeah we just got a replacement battery for it. It was working fine on regular setting but if you turned it on "high" it would die after 3 seconds lol

    I like how the national weather service waits to warn me of a severe thunder storm after its been thundering for like 8 minutes... like they knew this storm existed, why wait to warn me till I'm looking at it????

    They needed to be 100% sure first. They're tired of being wrong.

    Weather stations are actually really accurate about their predictions; the "percentages" you read or hear about refers to the probability of it happening in a specific area. But as far as the actual storm? They see it coming before it actually does.

    A lot of people confuse that concept.

    That makes sense, I asked for a highway tire. We'll see how many extra weights they have to throw on lol

    Just a USB cable, the appropriate one.

    I have weather channels and more set up with mine. I wonder if I can clone it and send you the file?

    Funny that you mention the Baofeng programming. I need to delete or fix some channels seeing as how I have my old county's law enforcement on there.

    Here's the weather

    I turned my taco shifter into a long throw shifter by adding a 4" extension and it's soooo much better ergonomically

    Lulz, that was my first choice I found on tire rack in the 265/75, they were 162 each. Going with the Cooper mastercrafts in 235/75 from LS was 120 each and I saw em online selling from Amazon or Walmart at 95-100 a piece.
