Does anyone ever file off the fire button locking pin? Every now and then, I guess because the way I push down, its slightly spins into lock position. Kinda annoying but no biggie. I don't think I'd ever use the feature so I was thinking of filing it off. Is this unheard of?

i take the button off and remove the stop pin on my mods

sometimes you can just push the pin inside the button but I removed mine I found it would catch some if just pushed in so you can just push it out :)

Oh you let the cat out the bag now. We kept it a secret the other day and left Kay befuddled now she's gonna know what was up :lol: It is shaping up as a good series :) I've only watched some but it has been good.

Good Morning REOVille. A really busy week was followed by Mamaw's Spring Cleaning. Which means after driving 3000 miles in five days, Papaw got to drive to the Landfill and then to Goodwill on his day off. Yea !!! :glare: Finished the day off by mowing the lawn (another 2 hours of riding) before collapsing in front of the TV for Despicable Me 2 and some of Mamaw's Ham and Cabbage.
Was doing a little catching up this morning. Never been self-employed, I would always take the day off. My current Boss is a real Jekyll-Hyde type. A Desk Jockey who has never driven a Truck, but has supervised a Transportation Department for nearly three decades. As long as you do your job he's OK, but don't come in the office with a Ticket. Not a Good Scene. I do reserve the Right to bark back if he's misinformed, and, to his credit he'll back off and discuss it calmly on those occasions.
Sounds like Dennis has had an interesting career. Way over my head, though. I know where the 'On Button', the Favorites Page, and how to find NFL.com and ECF. I can even check my e-mail, occasionally. I'm better with Highways and gears than tech-stuff.
I see MrPicC (Craig) is up to four REOS already. Addictive, aren't they ? Waiting to see how Glowplug reacts once she gets hers firing well. Maybe we need to start a Self-Help group. "My name is Brett, and I am a REONaut...." :laugh:
Anyways, Hello Everyone. Have a Safe and Blessed Day :)

Good morning PAPAW and REOVILLE
Addictive yes BUT I'm also trading most of my other gear to get what I'm getting :)
Anything cloned is pretty much all gone, and whatever is left isn't worth trading.
Anything worth money has been traded for reos :p
I do plan on a SL for my 2 year and that will be a purchase that I already have approval from the misses..

I spent 3-4 hours cleaning out my work van this weekend on top of the original 4 hours on Wednesday when I received it. I took this truck from my "mentor" who trained me basically and up until Wednesday I respected him. After seeing the amount of junk collecting for years that I had to deal with I began to get annoyed. At the same time after seeing how new this truck looked after a really good cleaning, I'm pretty happy with myself!. You'd never know this truck was beat to hell for the past 9 years.. All it needed was some loving, a vacuum and some armorall..

I haven't seen Bob around in awhile :(

Rogers been kinda scarce as of late too :(

Good morning everyone doing research on ride on tractors for Gatlin I think Ive found one for him it has no front bucket but has a trailer and 2 mototrs for the rear wheels so less chance of getting stuck he's big into pulling things so I think this is perfect for him now if I can convince the dw to spend a bit of her income tax return on my our boy :lol:

I bought HRH a food mixer with my tax rebate and saved the rest. I always do my taxes now as soon as i can, because a few years ago i was rather slack about it, waiting until close to the deadline etc, and i discovered i owed the IRS money!

Cue a frantic week of calling in debts and scrambling for liquidity to pay them. Not fun.

I am impressed with this new kit of Rob's; it's resurrected my old grand. You guys will notice the better battery life for sure.
