    Beer

    Bells Oberon is my declared favorite, but I like most anything as long as it doesn't taste like coffee (which is weird because I can drink coffee) or is one of the more extreme versions of things (like a super sour or super hoppy beer).
  2. the big questions remain: Where are they finding these things, and why is the price cheaper than a used tail light?

    that is a fascinating website! you can click on each type of event, then the specific events and get some basic data on each event. though I don't see a spot for whether the shooter was legally armed or not.
  4. a thing's value could certainly be monetary, but in this case for me it isn't. Makes me smile every time I see my new baby. Sorta makes me feel like a big time collector who located a barn find of his dream car. Sure it's worth some money, but that's secondary to finding that little piece of history, a snap shot of how things were back in the day (except I'm adding headrests to my bench). And I enjoying the hunt for old school aftermarket parts (though I wish I had started the hunt a decade ago). It's a hobby, just like any other. The goals are personal and differ between owners. These are mine. Caring about the money implies I would sell it later on and I don't intend to. But I do care about it's originality (to a point) because that alone makes me smile.
  5. that's an impressive amount of projection
  6. still free to try.
  7. I have one of each (stock and modded) and they both float my boat in their own special way. add to that the dreamer truck. The empty shell behind the barn that could be anything and allows me to dream up whatever I want. drag truck? turbo diesel? 1 tons and 40s? Eliminator clone? anything is possible because it's a blank slate.
  8. but it's free to try! also, my XL arrived today and it's... rather large. But the sleeves are juuust long enough so it's what I'll be wearing.

    wild hogs. definitely need a magazine for them. maybe belt fed if you can get one. has everyone said their fill? I'd prefer this to not get circular or repetitive.
  10. that brings up the manual transmission vs automatic discussion. only you can answer to what you would prefer to drive. The AX-15 is the upgrade to the older Peugeot (ba-10/5) manual trans. If you have an auto, that'd be the AW-4 and it's a fine transmission as-is.
  11. everything depends on your goals for your truck. Others will have differing opinions but yours matters the most. What do you want to do with your truck? Where do you see it in 5 years? 10 years? It personally terrifies me to daily drive something that I want to hang on to for the rest of my life. crap happens on the roads. in the last month we saw a couple super DUPER nice MJs taken out by plain ol' traffic accidents.
  12. I do believe that amazon has free returns if you'd like to try the 2x.
  13. the law says he has to wear a helmet if he's riding a scooter. the law doesn't say he has to wear one to ride a... furniture dolly?
  14. what sort of issue?

    be sure to take the list witha grain of salt. I see a lot of reused codes in your printout. Pretty sure you don't have a hybrid or a 5spd or a 3.42 axle gear.
  16. I've got some uni-strut underneath too and strapped the spare shafts there:
  17. oh, I have no doubt there are some horrible drawbacks. But that hasn't stopped people from doing things before. I was just curious if anyone remembers seeing it.
  18. honestly I don't mind the cold, but it would be really nice if it would STOP RAINING!!
  19. probably not useful to you but I've got my Co2 tank tied to some unistrut with a pipe clamp.
  20. has anyone seen someone combine their exhaust pipe with their rocker guard? even if it was a show Jeep. Just saw a pic of a 60 'vette and it dawned on me. edit: it might be time for bed. I'm not sure.
  21. awww, you're getting the cold snap too? bummer.
