Because of all the snow days you get there right ;)

That's my next vehicle - something to off-road with and be able to drive in the snow. I haven't test drove anything yet but am looking at

Hahahaha - you got me! I've been keeping it on the down low - no reason, but I will be eligible to retire next December at the end of the semester. I'm going for it, too!

Then I am going to sell off my Celica and Highland and go buy something new and improved!

And THEN I am going off into a winter wonderland where I can enjoy snow for a bit!

Get a booth or sit at the bar, order more sake, skip the "showmanship", live life better :)

Morin again Dave, and hello Cactus and Hypno! Weekend is almost here!

That's always fun but I hate it when they throw food at you to see if you can catch it with your mouth. Um... can you tell I'm not good at that?

That red Jeep looks kinda cool, I recognize the others but have never seen anything like the red one! :2cool:

The third one would probably be the most comfortable as an all-around vehicle so I will probably go with something like that but am not ruling out the first two. I've heard that this is the last year for the fj....

On one of my service calls to Littleton Hospital, I rented a Grand Cherokee. I couldn't get in to the OR's until after 2200.
What was I to do? Well, I'd wake up a 0500 and hit the road. I found a nice FS road at the base of Mt. Elbert, after I went to the top.
The Grande Cherokee did OK, until I took it down a 30deg hill with rocks. The low-range was as I would expect. It bottomed-out several
times. I got to the bottom, turned around, and drove it back up. It did otay, it still dragged it's ... over the rocks.

Had I been in my F250, It would be no problem at all...
It was a great service-call. How many folks can say that they get paid for four-wheelin' in the frikkin' rockies?

Ahhh, congrats Sun. Well-earned I'm sure :) Lighten the load and hit the road... Cactus approved ;)

Greatest trip 2WD F-150... base of the trail guy eyes our rides F-150 and Subaru AWD and says we have a "better" CHANCE in the extended cab F-150 - it was slow going but I assure you there was no way the Sub would have made it... Ford trucks win IMO.

It's complicated noise with a chick dressed like a huuaa (not that there is anything wrong with that). The studio version is better.

Was there any music... I just saw a hot gal being coy and playing hard-to-get and then credits rolled and I didn't get her number ;) I kid, good song/performance.
