    Dumping my 10mm & going 9mm

    This argument always seems to go to one extreme or the other...with niether side typically have first hand, in field evidence to support their opinion, just stories or articles pointing one way or the other. As most folks that get into these debates, I've never had to shoot a charging bear or...

    Partially ruptured achilles at calf...

    Got the wrap ice packs already from previous knee/shoulder issues unfortunately and putting them to use. Planning to stay off it as much as possible until I see the Doc. My sister in law works for a good orthopedic and has me setup to get in Tuesday and then schedule MRI then for same or next...

    Partially ruptured achilles at calf...

    Just fishing for any input from anyone who may have delt with this type of injury as far as what was done to fix and how long/rough recover was. Long of it short, I won a stupid prize pushing something apparently too heavy yesterday. Something snapped loudly and violently in back of my right...

    Anyone daily driving first gen tundra?

    How's the frame and rear axle housing? Got one in the shop now that looks pristine from the top with just over 100k on it....but needed a few grand in frame repairs. You gotta watch the frames on those things...even if your not in the rust belt you never know where a truck that old spent it's...

    What kind of truck do you use?

    It's heavy...but very functional and bed stays about as secure as you can make a truck bed. Likely upgrade to a similar set up to Marshfly soon to shave some weight and open up some living space for crappy weather days. It's a dedicated rig though, not used for anything but...

    Western states Tmobile coverage and satelite experience?

    So after a fair bit of homework and weighing things we just did our upgrade with Verizon for now. It has been 3 years since we last did so and alot has changed since then for Verizon and our family. Long of it short, the new S25 line from Samsung has satelite texting/SOS features built in so...

    Western states Tmobile coverage and satelite experience?

    I almost pulled the trigger on one of these for the same type of setup last year...I talked myself out of it as id only use it a couple weeks out of the year at most presently. If/when we relocate that would be a different story. How are you liking the Atlas? Im leaning hard towards ditching...

    Western states Tmobile coverage and satelite experience?

    I know the satellite bit is new and sure to be quirky and glitchy at first...like anything associated with Elon. I really shouldn't factor that in too much I guess. If it takes off, everyone will be doing it soon Im sure. I'll look a bit closer at the coverage maps and plans. Verizon been fine...

    My “new” truck

    Sorry to hear about your uncle, cancer is a ruthless bitch. As for MGP...that rig in picture is a tank...full skid plates a the way back. Rock sliders, warm 12k mounted in that heavy C4 bumper, suspension/spring mods, rtt, full enclosed all aluminum bed rack with 70qt fridge/freezer and 200Ah...

    Western states Tmobile coverage and satelite experience?

    As title states, I'm curious about folks real world Tmobile service experience in western states. Where we live currently its not an issue,pretty much everything works fine but our travels take us west frequently and relocation likely in the works in next year or two. Just wondering if any...

    New Trucks

    A set of Dobinsons springs and RAS make a big difference there...or air bags Proceed at your own risk exceeding payload or gvw ratings...but with a little help in the rear suspension department the tundra is much more capable than payload/gvw ratings would otherwise indicate.

    New Trucks

    All in jest...I certainly understand exceeding the limitations of a 1/2ton truck and needing more. I keep a 3/4 ton gas and 1 ton diesel in the stable for those purposes. Im sure if you decided to unload that tundra you'd get a premium for it now. Have had offers to buy my wife's 2018 with 45k...

    2019 Chevy Silverado LT Trail Boss

    You'd have to ask GM warranty dept about that if you want any kind of extrapolated data. I dont see 10k vehicles a year through my shop. Probably haven't seen 10k gm 1/2 tons in my career... I do however see a pretty proportional number, relative to number on the road in my area, of GM, Ford...

    My “new” truck

    Nice wheels... That should be a solid rig. The trans fluid change and add on cooler being a 2019+ is solid advise if it'll be towing, off road much in hot climate or pulling steep grades frequently. RCI makes some stout steps/sliders...they are heavy. Congrats on the new truck! Enjoy the...

    2019 Chevy Silverado LT Trail Boss

    6,8, 10 spd...pick your poison...all have high occurrence rates of substantial failures. Far higher transmission and major engine failure rates than any other brand short of Hyundai's engine fiasco. GM is hard pass for me from my personal experience. Some have different views/experiences...I...

    2019 Chevy Silverado LT Trail Boss

    Sounds like a solid choice. While likely the most reliable 1/2 ton powertain wise...you still have to work on them...they all have failures of some sort. Starters, wheel bearings front and rear, water pumps, air injection system and various other things are still fair game for failure on a...

    2019 Chevy Silverado LT Trail Boss

    I would advise against anything GM 1/2 ton truck that's out of warranty and built after 2007...I can only base that on first hand experience and the statistical evidence of wreching on all makes/models for a living for over 20 years... And there GM parts counter and service guys telling me "I...

    All around 7mm bullet.

    I shoot the same gun, same caliber. For factory loaded ammo my t3x loves the Precision Hunter 162 eldx. That combo is more capable than I am distance wise presently...but im comfortable with it to 500 on deer size targets with minimal wind. Cow elk I shot last year was good broad side behind the...

    Insurance Coverage for Specific Diet

    Don't go making sense about things.... Healthy food vs paying for heart, blood pressure, diabetes meds or ozempic etc etc??? Big pharma would not stand for such nonsense. Take your logic elsewhere peasant🤣
