  1. Or a fiberglass deck and wash down hose. Me, crushed goldfish, bread crumbs or smushed grape? Blasted into the scuppers they go.
  2. Yep. My first thought was that the dumbass didn’t even stop to check for damage to the boat but then my next thought was if there’s damage better get it to the barn before she goes down in the channel.
  3. No food on the boat rule cancelled for 2021?
  4. 4 trips a day instead of 2? Still same price per trip, advertising limits most trips.
  5. Cutoff wheel and my 20v Dewalt grinder says I can get into one of those in less than a minute, but the would keep a gun out the hands of kids messing around.
  6. We enjoyed the Princeton Hot Springs in Nathrop. Spent half a day there with the kids alternating between the river pools and the tube pool. Kids went back there year or so ago on a trip by themselves after submitting Mt Elbert. We rented sandboards at Kristi Mountain Sports in Alamosa to slide on the dunes.
  7. Do want
  8. My suggest would be to join FB groups or manufacturer forums for the trailers you are looking at and read about what people with the models you are looking at are towing with and how well that is working for them. We did that in the week between when we first looked at the brand we bought and when when made our purchase. Our trailer model was pretty much on the dividing line between those using half and 3/4 tow vehicles. Lots of buyers of our trailer started with a 1/2 ton after a sales guy said they would be fine and then moved up to a 3/4 ton after a few white knuckle trips.
  9. Can't tell if that's the muzzle or handgrip sticking out. Not gonna zoom it.
  10. Blown out Mullet Bono was the best Bono, except for the bolo tie. Those things were everywhere for about 2 years around that time. Don't remember if Bono kicked it off or was just riding along.
  11. Looks like that's from a whole channel devoted to street fights in Austin TX Street Fights TV https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCazGlbA17F9An1pfjISih1w
  12. Actual GVWR if your trailer is typically less an issue for trucks these days as is the vehicle cargo capacity. Go look on the sticker in your door jam. It will tell you a weight that the occupants and cargo isn’t to exceed. Take this weight, subtract how much you and your family weigh, subtract any extra cargo (bikes, coolers, grills firewood, etc) that may be in the bed and the result is the max tongue weight. Now compare this weight to the listed tongue weight of the trailers you are looking at, realizing published tongue weights in brochures are usually dry weights a good bit lower than actual loaded weight. 12% of trailer GVWR is probably a better number. As an example, we bought a Grand Design 2800BH last summer. It’s published tongue weight is 604lb, dry weight is 6400lbs and GVWR is 8000lbs. My actual loaded tongue weight measured on scales was 1080lbs. I bought a Ram 2500 4x4 diesel with a 2380lb load capacity. With a 4 adults, a camper top and a bed full of gear I’m right at the published weight rating for my truck but my truck exceed the weight of the trailer and tows and tracks Spend some time reading and learn about vehicle and trailer weights, weight distributing hitches etc and take what the dealer guys tell you with a grain of salt regarding whether your vehicle is suitable or not. Pretty much when you pull out of the dealership you will be on your own.
  13. Lots of tube top tittys and weaves flying around in them videos. Didn’t see a single Worldstar! so I kinda had a sad.

    AMMO THREAD

    It's Pat Ammo Sales?
  16. Has anyone found a video showing the production process of these pieces? How are they molded? Curious how they go about making them. Also wondering about the thought process where you decide to make a run of bent over backwards, topless Egyptian women with big hooters.
  17. We are on our 4th trip of the year and made another reservation this morning so we have 5 trips at parks planned and will probably do a couple of trips to the ranch. Most are just 3 day weekends but we do have a 10 day on the Frio.
  18. There is a bourbon thread in Food and Travel. Might want to take a look through it and reevaluate your bar stock.
  19. At first glance, no apparent Snovid leaks. Took a while to purge all the air out of the lines but we are looking pretty good so far.
  20. I did trailer batteries (2x 6V golf cart) at Christmas and gonna do new boat batteries in May too. Seems like something always needs a $250-$750 fix.
  21. Our trailer is in the driveway waiting on a 6PM launch. Had a discussion with the wife last night about upgrading tires for it. Need about 5 sets of tires for vehicles and trailers over the next 3 or 4 months.
