    True, mine says I get about 250mi to the tank so it's probably a little more

    Fabbed up a tailgate grill at work the last couple days. uses the tailgate as a table and the grill sits on top of a craddle that inserts into the receiver on my bumper. 100% stainless steel construction as well. Have a feeling its gonna get used this weekend:fingerscrossed:20160526_144706.jpg 20160526_144854.jpg 20160526_144637.jpg

    Got a friend that does. What you got planned? Also, Mike's welding in sterling has done good Aluminum welding work for us in the past. Always small jobs.

    I'm replacing the floor boards in my boat and I'm thinking about adding some additional support. Right now it just has them running bow to stern. I'd like to add some more side to side. Also need another one down the center front to back.

    It's not necessary at all but I figure I may as well look into doing it.

    Hard to tell in the picture but the smoke stack sits a couple inches from the tailgate. Designed it to use the tail gate as table space for cooler or whatever

    Nice. Disregard.

    @ffirg we would need one of these and some Argon welding gas. You can use the welder for free. Or I can if you bring over some practice pieces for me to learn on you could probably talk me into doing it once I get the truck done (soon hopefully).

    Amazon shows this $50 cheaper and it might be cheaper at the local shops with UAA discount... You still have your UAA ID?
