  1. Did my 30k service on my diesel Ram today. 3 gal oil/ filter, two fuel filters and air filter. The filters cost me $175 at my door (shoutout to Geno’s Garage for all your diesel Ram needs) and oil is $20/ gal, so $235 all in. Dealer quotes about $450-550 for the same service. Used oil goes back into the same jugs and gets dropped off at Walmart by their used oil tank. Just drive by and set the jugs out and they will dump them and dispose. Drained diesel goes to the ranch for burning brush piles.
  2. Just a 13 minute encore of Play that Funky music, prince style.
  3. Pos rep for perfectly executed scorpion flip. Bonus rep for landing it in the back of a moving truck.

    AMMO THREAD

    There's an Academy 1 mile from my house. 2 Fridays ago, they had a full wall of 223/556, 9mm and various other rifle rounds and 4 pallets of shotgun shells. I found a 1k round box of Fed M855 that was $670 but thats too high. Ended up with a flat of shotgun shells and some bullets for reloading. Went back this past Friday and they were down to 2 pallets and about half of the other ammo was gone. I take State Hwy 90 from Navasota to Madisionville to head up to Dads or our ranch and there is a little gunshop just north of Anderson that is loaded with ammo. Lots of different rifle and pistol calibers. Definitely stop off if headed through that way.
  5. Took my dad over to the ranch Saturday, mostly just to look around a bit and get him out of the house. Forgot to stop at the store and get any fresh fixings for lunch but then just figured we'd head to town and eat if we got hungry. Ended up finding a portion of fence that needed a bunch of work. Spent a while on that and started to get a little hungry and I dug around in the food tote I always throw in the truck when headed up there. Found part of an old loaf of bread that wasn't too much out of date and some vienna's. A couple of vienny foldovers and a cold shiner blond hit the spot.
  6. Get a loan for $200 billion and then get into the ranching business. Pretty soon you'll have $100 billion and then just write off the loan.
  7. Not the first time he has said similar stuff at a press conference, IIRC.
  8. Think I’d pass on going after Buffalo at an erotic ranch. I mean, I can stay home and do that. *Just kidding honey, in case you happen to be reading Surly
  9. But just think, you didn't have to haggle any during the transaction.
  10. While I'm sure there was another cable/rope up high to balance on, the main thing I thought of was that those feet sure reminded me of a hot foot gas pedal on a bad ass V8 powered jet boat.
  11. Lets have lunch at about G🏈
  12. Don't know about the tactical versions, but the 1301 was designed from the get go as a factory ready 3 gun shotgun that had an MSRP of about $1300. They wanted to compete with reworked Benelli M2s that pretty much dominated the top tier of the sport. Mossberg makes a decent comp gun for sub $1k that would probably be my first choice for local club shoots.
  13. It gets better. My boat was out of commission for two summers when they were late teens and I just didn’t spend any time getting it fixed. Kids weren’t too interested when they were around. Fast forward to now and my 25yo daughter (nopics) drove 3 hrs and my 21 yo son drove an hour to meet us at the lake and camp for the weekend. Cooked some good food, fished a little, pulled them on skis, knee board and tube. They took off in the boat by them selves for a while doing who knows what. Good weekend on the water. (And at the campsite).
  14. It’s nice having the boat anchored up right next to the campsite.
  15. ^^^ Old school Rem 1100 for the win!
  16. The Essential Craftsman's whole channel is life's pro tips dad edition. This video is not really about building a wheelchair ramp.
  17. This is true, but you can't carry at all in a 51% establishment, ie 51% or more revenue is from alcohol sales.
  18. If he's never hunted before, you should be right next to him coaching him on what shots to take or not, even if that means not shooting anything yourself. Anything else is irresponsible.
  19. Your dad was the Fonz?
  20. Me either, especially the two times it was posted in the lol thread.
