  1. there's no bbq season for us either. you'd be just as likely to find the grill lit in summer as you are to find it melting the snow off the lid. :D
  2. Couldn't convince my dad to spend the dough, but apparently I could convince my sis. :hmm: I was talking to her just now and mentioned my woes and asked if I could apply the money she owed me towards the grill to help nibble down the price and with no pause what-so-ever she said she'd take care of the rest. :clapping: It's possible that there's some guilt concerning all the money that my parents gave them when they first got married. :D But you didn't hear that from me. So in theory, I should be posting pics in a few hours of our new grill. :banana:
  3. I prefer charcoal, but dad likes propane and so propane it will be. :(
  4. post count envy... :D
  5. Cutest bunny ever :D (in a sorta tragic way, but adorable none the less).
  6. :agree: Amen

    RIP Piper.

    :( Hang in there Correy. Perri is 14 and had recently started going downhill, but we think we've figured out why, and he's started getting his appetite back so here's hopin' for a couple more years with the ol' guy. It was hard enough when my cat (20) passed last winter. My animals are like kids to me. http://pic20.picturetrail.com/VOL91/512063/712441/122806488.jpg
  8. that's part of the problem. My grandparents are flying down to GA this weekend and Dad has it in his mind that for some reason he needs to buy this NOW so it's here when they get here. :hmm: Also, the guy at Lowes says that the Weber we liked is carried year round and never goes on clearance. :dunno:
  9. padding your counts again i see. :shake:
  10. The one we have up in MI was a cheapie (free to us though,as my uncle got a new one) and it's rusting apart. We don't want another one of those. :(
  11. found nothing but dead-ends. :dunno:
  12. how's the one with the ear mite issue doing?
  13. what are you guys grillin' with? likes/dislikes? cost? Seems Grandma has given us money for a grill, 300 smackers if I heard right. I'm trying to get dad to chip in enough for a nice Weber Genesis with the thinking that he's getting 300 off of a very nice grill, but we're a bit short of money at the moment so it's been a hard sell. he'd rather just get the best he can for 300 bucks and whatever happens, happens. We don't need anything big, but I'd like to get something that will last (with regards to both rust and durability). thoughts?
  14. I think it's far more common to lose them to rust than to thieves.
  15. not without some sheetmetal reworking
  16. tech questions should really go in the Tech forum so more people will see them. :thumbsup: The Projects forum is more for telling us about your truck as you work on it and we ask you questions about it. :cheers:
  17. Low range does wonders for holding a manual on a slope (when shutting it off). :thumbsup: Works way better than an ebrake in my experience.
  18. what the heck is that bill trying to protect? The rocks? The sand? The sand on the rocks? :dunno: Moab is endless stretches of rock. Last I checked, rocks weren't on any endangered list.
  19. Meh. I think the 3.07 gears are hurting you the most. lower gears = more control Are you using low range on the ramps?
  20. as long as I could without interfering with the eyes of the actual main. Other vehicles' main leaf can also be used. on my 90 I used one from an Explorer. here's the one in my 90:
  21. we've got one in the DIY forum: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=7910
  22. I added a second main leaf to my 88 and that seems to do a decent job. :thumbsup:
  23. survived the trip... tired as all get out... going to bed... :ack:
  24. such a little photo though. :dunno:
  25. does the 2.8 bellhousing have a place for the CPS?
