So Cal desert rats

I'd like to do a night run but cash is tight right now... Plus you can't keep up in the washes so it would be more like a night walk for you.... :D
 
Hey Paul, I love that intake setup you are running, other than a snorkel that is the only true cool air intake I have seen. Nice work!

Scott, what new chat thing are you talking about?

As for the gas thing I am getting 19.4 with perfect conditions, i say 20 to make myself feel better. My AVG is around 16-17, but I try to baby it unless I am running late to work. I have the AVG and instant MPG meters on the OBD2 torque app and so I will watch the instant MPG and feather it with the gas pedal to keep the numbers up..... Thanks for the tip on the Aaron 1 (Captian) best $28.00 I have ever spent.
 
Let me guess you worked a double?

Or...

You just got back from an orgy/gangbang and you think it's about to fall off now?
 
So I came back from an orgy.....lol! Good creativity tone!

Well the story starts with me being slightly intoxicated and an argument with the wife. I thought I would blow some steam off and go drive down a couple of dirt roads behind the house. Well just as I was about to head home I saw this cool looking cyn. It was fun, kind of like articulation cyn at your place scott.....then it turned into tailight cyn and then a dead end. So I managed to get turned around and as I was heading back out, I learned that apparently obsticles change depending the direction you go over them, next thing I know I am high centered with 3 wheels off the ground in a super tight turn. :/ I was completely unprepared for this. So with a mini fold up shovel a bottle jack, a bunch of rocks, of ya did I mentioned being drunk and wearing sandels....I proceded to jack up each wheel and place rocks under. This took about an hour of trial and error before I got my crossmember off the dirt enough to get over the obsticle. Next some how the cyn shrunk on the way out, each turn being tighter and near impossible. My drunk self managed to use the cyn walls like a bumper lane and my truck looks like it! So I made it out and all I wanted to do was go home and apoligize to the wife for being a jack@ss. However as I thought I was taking a short cut to get back to my trail home, I managed to find with my front right wheel a massive 3ft wide 4 foot ditch/rut and I put my front axle on the ground. OMG! Are you freakin kiding me! Well at least I had the technique mastered, Romans built bridges with nothing more than rocks and labor right? Another hour later and I was free from that. to top off my epic adventure, I managed to miss the aquaducte, but ended up driving acrossed a golf course to get back home. I stuck to the cart paths to avoid any bunkers that might be hiding from me! :p I have some duely earned body damage I will post pics of when i get a chance later today. Luckly the truck seems to be running like a champ still! Moral of the story, don't go out alone where you haven't been before and especially don't do it drunk! :) Cheers!

Ya thanks, its funny cause I went out pretty far by myself once before without any problems but I said I would never do that again....well I guess I like to learn things the hard way! :0
 
Don't you have my Ph.# ?? I was on the phone with work...

I expect this out of Tone... :D

Oh the lessons of youth...
You're lucky the gate hasn't been installed yet (just N.E a bit of you) if you came out the way I think...

You can see in this pic the spare tire/ bumper is dropping down.

Piece is from an old hitch, modified to fit the center mount & add to the bumper.

You only got stuck cause you need long arms and 35s, when in doubt gas it out! :D

Im pissed that I didnt get the invite you should have invited me to the orgy damn you!
 
While I'm at it, I'm going to move the spare to the center, lower it a bit, and move the ammo box to the drivers side.
