    I've been wanting to see how that burns. I'm really impressed with their hood. I'm considering picking it up to have when I weld up my links.

    I do, a small, older 110v only welder that's very limited
    :smack:
    It burns awesome, got to try it before I bought it, Buckeye Welding had a demo day and BBQ. Red, Blue, and Yellow were there all day with machines set up. Tried all 3, also tried all 3 (MIG, TIG, and Stick) on the ESAB, walked inside and bought one, the discount today helped as well :thumbsup:

    Yeah I was aware of buckeye's event but work always gets in the way of cool stuff. Congrats on the score.

    I'm going to have to give it a try before I pull the trigger on the miller I was considering.

    You're more than welcome to try mine, at least on 120v until I get the big plug hooked up. It's a very well built machine, I will defiantly give them that, quality everything so far, can't wait to give mine a go.

    Forest service roads in Grand County are not open until June 15th regardless of conditions. This includes Rollins Pass West. The southern part of RMNP is in Grand County not that there are really any trails in the park. There are some blm roads open that I'm not familiar with yet.

    Asher said I wasn't bro enough.

    :notsure:

    :poking:

    Wasn't overly thrilled with the lack of lip protection. Could notice the extra weight difference in braking from the first day, and seemingly the poor baby engine noticed the weight as well.

    Losing a few mpg when penny pinching mode is enabled on the road was not going to work (not so much the loss of mpg as the loss of miles per tank). And I had a very limited window to make the change.

    Back to the 265s? I'm mulling something similar. Currently have 255/85s on there which has had a noticeable impact on the perceived power and am contemplating stepping back to 265s when towing our camper instead of 285s. Not sure how much of a difference that would make.

    Man you 2nd gen guys take an mpg hit for everything. I get basically the same same gas mileage I did stock with all the extra weight, bigger more aggressive tires..even with my tent on there's almost no mpg loss.
