    Much of I-80 in Nevada, much of Idaho interstate, Wyoming interstates and I-90 in Montana. All 80 mph for many, many miles. Sometimes it will drop to 75 through towns.

    For GMRS you can just pay the fee ($70) and you get your license(10 years). For amateur radio, you can take the Tech, General, or Extra exams [in that order/or all at once if you want]...I think you could probably take the practice exam a few times for tech and pass with no "real" studying, not that I'd advise that necessarily...but I'm not sure what the mercy rule is ;)

    If you are driving I-80 through Wyoming limit is at least 80 and I believe 85 in some areas and triples will slide by you easily. BTW, wind is often pretty extreme there and the triples still rarely slow down, even in winter. Wyoming is the most extreme I have seen post Montana "Safe and Prudent" speed laws.

    Thanks, just checked them out. Good prices, but the shipping sucked for me $50.
    Also the dealer put my safety on the bumper so I’m going to have to mask it and paint it...

    Wish you weren't in Hawaii. Have a brand new set from them that I'm not going to use and I'd let them go cheap. The shipping to Hawaii is scarey.

    Yeah doesn’t work for mine. I can make the lights flash but no party trick. I think u need the jbl or premium tech package to do the remote start. I can’t do it from the app either...

    My Mrs like rubbing it in, her RAV4 xse does it :(

    WYOMING sucks. Heard the fishing it pretty good up there, but I can care less about that so yeah that place still sucks in my book.

    Now back to the topic at hand...

    USPS is fine, it’s just most companies have contracts with Ups, fedex etc and they are not allowed to use usps...
    Thanks for the offer though. I took my bumper caps and mirror capS off last night so planning to spray them today after I watch F1...

    No before and after pictures, but I steam cleaned 2 years of ass from my front seats today. Water was pretty brown coming out of there.

    Yes it is. I keep a bin of “stuff to Hawaii” because it’s always too slow and too expensive to get anything shipped while we are there. Particularly tech equipment, cables, other small ticket items which you’re stuck paying full retail for otherwise.

    On the upside, though, 4% sales tax sure feels nice when you are used to 8.75%

    The funny part is all these parts are for sure originating on the other side of the pacific rim. If only they could toss a few on raft as they cruise past...

    Not true, if it fits it ships using USPS Priority Mail boxes. I have a friend in Honolulu that can’t get some things shipped via Amazon to him, like a set of impact sockets. I packed them all into a priority mail box, minus the case, and taped it up big time and I think the small box weighed close to 20 pounds.

    Also, finally got around to getting a cover craft sun shade.

    Yeah, if it fits it ships, love it. Shipped all of my tools using usps over to HI, I got my money’s worth ;)

    I actually brought my tools from the UK to WA, then to CO and finally to HI. One of the Many tools I brought along was spring compression clamps and I finally used them after 10 years of carting them around. My tools have travelled far and earned their worth many times over.

    There are many companies that ship to HI but 10 times more that don’t. Amazon 2 day prime is more like 7-10 and only on certain items. I saw recently that Crutchfield do free 3 day shipping which is pretty awesome.

    It’s not all bad, things like buying a couch is a pain in the arse, especially on the outer islands...
