New England B.S. Thread

Played with an FJ for a bit today


And I picked up my KM2's. Getting em put ok tomorrow.

God it's hard fitting 6 33's in my truck lmao. Had to get creative

 

Sorry John, not really a light guy

 

They would have fit in a F150 easily

 

No problem figured I'd throw it out there .

 

They would have fit in a Tacoma too. And they would have fit if I didn't have all my tools, recovery gear, and my rear seats. No way in hell would I own an F-150. I'm more of a diesel fan anyway

 

Headed to sullivan tire to give them some money. New tire and repair this one for my spare should be about 200.00

 

Very sorry to hear Shane.

Ouch

I like that dash setup, looks nice.

Did you have to put a couple on the roof?

Says the guy looking at retrofits

 

Hey Rob, I saw in a different post you tow a v-nose trailer for your sleds? I'm curious what the specs are on it (dimensions, cost, etc.). How does it pull?

I want to get rid of the 12' clamshell I have. I hate the f'n thing. I kill my back trying to lift it every time. It always freezes shut. And the wind resistance is awful.

I'm talking about this one....

Nah Mike, all 6 fit in the truck just fine

 

Ha, nice! Missed you stirring the pot earlier.

Meh, unless you're heavy hauling, diesels aren't worth the additional up front costs plus the significantly higher cost of operation and maintenance.

You speak of the F150 like it's the worst truck out there... You clearly haven't researched half tons in a while

Is it just the camera or is your tire cambered out?

 

Certainly looks that way. And the unusual wear pattern would support that theory...

Diesels are good if you're plowing, too. Plowed for a building contractor for a couple of years and he had a 96 Ram with a 5.9 Cummins and a 98 Ram with the Viper V10. Granted that V10 was a pig, but you could plow the same route with the Cummins and use 1/3 of the fuel that you did with the V10. And you didn't have to worry about the Cummins overheating from a big 9-foot plow blocking the airflow to the radiator.

On another note:
Almost there! One more truck load and it should be stuffed to the gills and ready for the season. None too soon, too. It's been in the low 40's every morning this week, and we left the windows open in the house last night. 55 inside this morning

 

Cambered out because it's on a slope and I just lowered the side.

And at least it's not a Chevy or Dodge

 

Finally got around to trying Angry Orchard. Stuff is pretty good.

 

Which one did you try out?

 

Check out Crabbie's ginger beer too.
