Right, that's what I am telling Pugga, in fact I just asked my buddy who had his brand new Sierra 2500 done by Line-X of Bow and he said it was $550.

They are cheaper here than down there, I'm pretty sure of it!

 

Same thing happened to me with the drop in liner, whole bunch of shit got in behind it and I could hear it all crunching around when I walked in the bed. Plus, it was slick.

How does the Line-X look now after a while? Is it still black or starting to gray out (or do you have a tonneau on the bed)?

Jeez, might be worth reaching out to those guys. For a little bit of drive time, same some $$, could make it work out. I'm up there frequently enough camping.

 

Is that Colorado factory? There’s a Tacoma with a wrap job similar to that in providence I see parked at brown all the time. Looks great.

PS I’m not a pro grille fan boy but I think I figured it out. The stock army green looks terrible with the trd grill. The black grill is better.

 

I have a tonneau, and I only had it sprayed 4 months ago. Some people don't like that it is hard to slide things into the bed, but I really like that whatever I put in the bed stays where I put it. I think it has more grip than the rhino liner did, at least right now while it is new.

 

Jeep eater.... NoHo? Be willing... got all the stuff to make my 50amp extension cord for my welder... time to get creative...

And Dillo eggs... oh yeah... y'all are missing out.

For those that DONT know, its a jalapeño, stuffed with cream cheese(i like to add mozzarella as well), wrapped in bacon, then the whole thing gets covered in sausage...
Toss'em on the pit......


Make a good mid-day snack while a brisket is cooking...

 

Yum

 

Well damn, I need to try those then and yes Jeep Eater in NoHo. I know @crashngiggles was asking about it and possibly going

 

Cheaper and no tax.

 

Let me know if you go, I would like to watch.

 

I'm pretty sure I know it by another name. But, I'd be game... I'd really like to have skid plates made by then...

Come on and tag along...

 

I am down..... @Blais03 you down as well?

 

Will do!

MaBell is another name for it, since the old Bell telephone lines ran through there

Sounds good!

 

So a few weeks ago, I mentioned a really cool opportunity we had but didn't get into detail. Well, it looks like its probably not gonna happen so I'll let you guys know what fun I almost had!

So the guy who runs the company who owns the rubicon trail and sets up all Jeeps press/schools etc... lives down the road from me and grew up with my older cousin. They were looking for some "discount" places to do some press stuff since covid has killed budgets and he always wanted to get something going in Berkshire County where we live and he was raised.

So there was potential to have either the new Grand Cherokee L or the Wagoneer press tours/drives AT OUR FUCKING PLACE! That would include a few hours drive around the area, lunch in our place and then they would have built us an offroad loop that the journo's would have tested the vehciles on.

This would have been reallllly cool and they would have replaced the track, or kept it for my own use, obviously i wanted to keep it!

Well the Grand L didn't work out they picked somewhere else. And supposedly its between us and Jackson Hole for the Wagoneer....guess who will win that one


They also mentioned maybe hosting a school once or twice a year on our land and still doing a course. This would be pretty cool still, but its for people who have never put their jeep in 4wd and would be super basic bitch and not fun for any of us.



I was really pumped for it, and it would have been a great opportunity for us. Oh well, maybe in the future . Either way, all the top guys at stellanis have now seen my website and are aware we exist, that's a big step up!

 

It's 1 exit past where we met for the cooler handoff.

 

Does he have kids? Offer a discount on their weddings to sweeten the deal? He is in the auto industry so he must take bribes.

 

I don't think he has kids. He also doesn't make the final calls,I guess hes been trying to get something here for a while. He scouts sites, organizes the set ups and probably a billion other things.

He showed me photos from his new zealand gladiator launch. 150k acres rented, amazing teepee glamping. 500k budget. We could eat for a few years off that... needless to say their budget for us is a significantly smaller number.

 

still on the lookout for a replacement.
