    I used to say that all the time. Being here completely changed that. It feels like a blow dryer in your face. Lol

    My wife was just in Dubai a little bit ago for a couple days during her tour. The way she explained the heat made Texas sound cold lol

    Definitely just kidding, they both will suck in different ways. After it gets to 100+, it all sucks.

    It was going to be, but he mentioned the other day he didn't have a welder, so I've taken next Saturday night off work to drive out to Trail Toys and have Nathan install em. I was going to paint em today because I'm off tonight, but Nathan said I should wait til they're installed.

    It's all about the weight savings...with the 1 pound they cut out bumps up the MPG/HP rating to above the Taco.

    My bad. When you said you needed to invest in yourself and buy a welder so you could do mobile jobs, I assumed you didn't have one. I'm not sure if you could have come here or what but I took a.lot of factors in mind. East Bernard is closer to me than Columbus and because I work nights, I'll be cutting into my sleep time for install and driving to and from. I have sleep apnea increasing my changes of falling asleep while driving long distance and he's got a couch I can crash on. Plus at the time I thought he was still doing Trail Toys 24/7 so I was going to use my only day off (Wednesday) to do the install. Instead I ended up taking Saturday next week off.

    Nah my plan was to come to you and do em. I got a little welder I can take with me for stuff like. When I said I can’t do mobile gigs I meant a real welder. A big boy one like this
