    Actually just punching the holes all of the way around broke the coals down a lot faster than I was expecting. It was full to the brim when I called it quits around 5pm, and by 9 or so it had dropped down well over a foot, to around 6 inches of coals. Normally from that level I'd still have a foot of coals by the next morning, so the added intakes made a big difference. And it means that I didn't have to buy a cordless leaf blower :laugh:

    Best thing I ever used the outlet in the bed of my Tacoma for was a box fan to blow torch a fire that I was trying to start in a downpour.

    I keep one of these in the camper for just that reason. It will run off of the Ryobi 18v batteries or a plug. I've used it to kick start many a fire at the camp site.

    I was hoping the F-150 110v outlets would handle more, but they are also 400w. Odd, because the power inverter itself is quite large--it's under the back seat.

    Bought my 265/75/16 falken wildpeaks during discount tire directs Memorial Day sale. Got $75 from them, submitted another discount through falken that I didn’t think would work. Got the card today for another $75. All said and done came out to $90 a piece.

    I’ve seen that before to on another taco by me. Def makes you chuckle, but to each their own. Only time it really bothers me is when dealers try to pull shady shit like that and upsell it

    I've had mine on for about 1.5 years now...they are awsome! The only thing I haven't used them in yet is mud or beach sand. They grab everything else though. Too good in the snow(I didn't know that was possible) and went up a 100' sheet of ice on an 18 percent grade.

    Nice bump for my truck 265/70R16->255/85R16; had a little rubbing in reverse but a zip tie should fix that.
