    What exactly am I looking at? Mud? Or did a gremlin go crazy with a bottle of grease and get everything greasy?

    Got my truck back from the auto body shop yesterday!! Woohoo! I don't think there are too many DC LB SR5's with scooped hoods around. I may be wrong though. Pic's to follow and I will be at the meet on Saturday

    I know what you mean! I was so cautious after picking my truck back up. It was like driving miss daisy through the mountains. Hypervigilant and going like 50 :D

    That's pretty decent, but I've seen some better numbers recently from my friends running LTE off their phones.

    Unfortunately I don't quite have that luxury, I only have comcast business class. :(

    As far as Routers go, I'd go with a more standard router (Linksys/Cisco or a Buffalo) and then re-flash the firmware w/ DD-WRT. The nice thing about running this open source firmware is that I can do things like underclock the controller chip which makes it generate less heat and last a lot longer (my current buffalo has been running for 3 years w/ 250 some days of uptime, even through power outages). You can also adjust the radio performance so that you get better or lower reception (for security reasons).

    For the most part, getting the Wireless multiband radio model routers is kinda pointless because once you run WPA2 encryption over AES/TKIP, you'll be losing like 80% of your available bandwidth over wifi. It's probably better to spend the 500 bucks (or DIY) and get your home wired up instead.

    FYI The link didn't jump right to your entry on my phone but when I put in good ol vote 69, you were on page 13. Not sure if it's different on an actual computer.
