    A different cotton

    That reminds me of when I was a kid I had a little Yamaha dirt bike with the center prop kickstand that held the bike straight up. I being the brilliant mind I am decided to stick the rear tire over a fire ant hill and rev the bike up scattering the ant hill. Not so brilliant in the fact it...

    How about a Hornet? This big guy decided he wanted to fly into my truck while I was driving down the road. Want to see a grown man scream louder then a 12 year old girl at a Justin Bieber concert? Just toss one of these in a vehicle with him!

    Most drivers try our best to be both safe and courteous.....unfortunately there are times where courtesy goes out the window to maintain the safe part! I do not like cutting people off nor do I like being cut off. But there are times I do it because I see something the people behind or beside me...

    LOL Yeah I'll tell you a bit of advice going that way. If you see a truck coming up fast just get the heck out of the way! I've been fortunate I've never once smoked my brakes although I've had them hot enough you could smell them. But I have seen many many trucks with brakes smoking like crazy...

    Sing this to the Gillian's Island tune :)

    I personally say anyone who treats a woodie that way should have it confiscated. You can then send them to me and I'll love them back to good health once you've worked your magic.

    Rare reos.

    Psssst hey Vash..... I wasn't asking for no reason ;) I've got a few special doors in the works. I to thought a button would be cool. If you look on the photos and storage thread you can see a solid brass door I have that I'm working on the button might be a cool fit for it. :thumbs: And...

    Yes sir that's the one. I love that road to but alas not everyone is smart enough to drive it safely. And yeah I guess they tried to "redneckify" the sign for us dumb 'ole truckers. lol

    REO Grand current limit?

    I'll let the local geniuses here fill in the details on this but there has been a few of them that had their springs slowly collapse at or around .4 Ohms. I'm thinking from your description it was a partial collapse and not a full cause you wouldn't be able to keep using it with a full collapse...

    lol I see small spot's in the organic stuff to. It's just most people aren't looking that close. I even found a gnat inside one cotton ball. I don't think you have anything to fear.

    lol Looks like some fun roads to me! Yeah there's some pretty good 8%'ers here you just have to hunt for them cause most are way off the beaten path. One pretty good one is by Bear lake in Utah. It's another one of those roads big trucks aren't suppose to be on but me being the idiot I am ran it...

    Rare reos.

    Can anyone show me how the plunger button ones worked? Or I should say how the plunger itself is designed is a better question. I've been curious about that since the first pic of one I seen. Ingenious idea, crappy for pocket carry which is why I assume it went away but stylish none the less.

    I understand that. My wife is pregnant with daughter number two. She's due Jan 2nd although we anticipate she will be early again. I already notified the company I am contracted with come November I will be no more then 12 hours from home at any time. And when that call comes in they might as...

    I used to be gone that much. I work only midwest to southeast now keeps me going through home a lot more often. I do miss running the mountains though. The northwest has some of the toughest most challenging drives in the country especially in winter and I do enjoy a challenge. My daughter is...
