  1. I've learned to never ever look at the pump readout......It's just too damned painful.. Back to the iPhone... I can't wait to get the 6+. Looking at the 240fps for slow motion is pretty nice as well as the image stabilization. Also got the Macbook Air with 8G of ram. Final Cut Pro is pretty zippy even with some heavy renders.. woohoo..
  2. Well, my mother-in-law has moved into a small suite just big enough for her....she's 85 and has an in home nursing attendant. We'll stay at the family business hotel but we have a policy of keeping to the hotel rules in front of the staff and other customers. So, no dogs. Other than that I guess I could carve out an igloo in the corner of the parking lot where we pile up the snow and live like an Inuit for a week.....burrr...
  3. Ya...I love those box replacement ...boxes.. My favorite truck in the world would be a 70 series ute with a box like this one..totally drool worthy. Oh and....umm....That exhaust note makes my tongue hard... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nl0uIn8C4nQ Don't worry about the glow plug wait. It doesn't hurt anything and they are only REALLY there for very cold starting.
  4. Slider are heavy gauge round or square stock that are either welded or bolted to the frame and run the length of the rocker panels. They just protect the rockers as rocker damage is the most serious kind of body damage when traversing sections with boulders. They take the damage sliding over the rocks that would otherwise ding the rockers. ARB air lockers are pretty solid units. Quite jealous man...... Definitely, pricey though and there are cheaper and just as durable lunchbox lockers on the market. However none sound as cool as ARB's with the compressor. Love the......wherrrr,, cli
  5. Nice ARB and pipework. Are those side steps sliders as well?
  6. Hey Hey....!! Nice truck Big Al. Once the honeymoon is over I shall expect to see some mods...maybe nix the gun for now... Love the rally trucks.....maybe not so much bling bling though.. The Open Country MT's are a nice match.
  7. and....best boobs in Hollywood for many many years...love her voice, too.
  8. True that....even respraying is difficult to match. I fixed a bit of surface rust on the rear quarter panel of that cruiser and it was near impossible to get a perfect match between the lower half and upper half of the panel....and I'm pretty good with a spray gun. Fortunately, the upper and lower sections have a three tiered seam so there isn't a hard transition between the two shades.
  9. Champagne gold is a great color. My last Cruiser was CG. It hides dirt, scratches and dings better than any other color of paint.
  10. There are a few really popular after market add-ons as well. These seems to be all the rage at the moment....
  11. Thanks Norcal...Great to know!! Now you guys have my wheels turning trying to figure out how I can take him along. It would save me quite a bit in kennel costs if I could.
  12. That's cool Metabo...thanks. I was going to have my wife inquire about it tomorrow actually. Ya..no where to keep him once we get there.
  13. I don't think he did......or at least he hasn't mentioned it.....
  14. I don't think you can. Even If I could I wouldn't. 20 hours is just to long to be confined.. especially a breed like the Border Collie. Also, we'll be staying at my wife's hotel and there's no where to keep him.
  15. Yes...that's the one we always take, too Norcal. Just booked Ooarai to Tomakomai for Dec. 25th and return on Jan. 2nd. We usually make it a longer trip but I can't be away from my dog(s) that long. We usually get the family washitsu room. The western room with the 4 bunk beds have mattresses that are hard as rock....like sleeping on a pool table. One time before our daughter was born my wife and I took the ultra suite room.....that was NICE!!!! Also, if you bring your own food like we do.. the window sill in the room has a lot of space and when you close the sliding shutters it wi
  16. It's a beauty today. Was thinking of going camping again this coming long weekend but looks like rain is forecast..
  17. Busy week....wifey gets an iPhone 6,, I'm getting a 6+... and a Macbook Air from the Apple Store is on the way as well...
  18. Sonpo. I've used all the usual suspects over the years. Congrats on the x-Trail...let's go do some light wheeling.
  19. Wow...Snowhuntress. That's a huge $hit smorgasbord right there.... Prayers, good wishes, and mojo all sent..
