    Spending 70,000 to avoid owed taxes.

    37% to the feds, 2.5% to the state (AZ) 15.3% self employment tax = 54.8% tax. If I spend 100k on a new truck it will cost me $45,200 net and the Gov gets ZERO from me to send to Ukraine.

    Ford Raptor Owners/Tire Chains

    The further you push out the front control arms the more up/down suspension travel you gain. The biggest downfall to independent front suspension is the limited suspension travel. The only other way to gain travel is to make the truck wider hub to hub but that comes with its own set of issues...

    Ford Raptor Owners/Tire Chains

    Raptors were never intended to be an "HD truck". They are designed and built for high speed off road driving. If you want to take a vehicle built for going fast through the desert and use it to go slow in snow and ice you shouldn't be surprised that there are limitations.

    Any Roksliders hunting N of 3 Forks Ranch in CO unit 5 or WY unit 21? I need some help.

    Thank you for the replies, tips, and recommendations. A storm was coming in so I aired down the tires, folded in the mirrors and pretended my truck was a rental. We just returned with the Rhino in tow. Now to get back to helping my brother fill his tag.

    Was sighting in rifle that I had cut and threaded for suppressor. Had a silicone sleeve on suppressor. After sighting it in I picked it up to unscrew the suppressor not knowing that the sleeve was laying in the dirt 10 yards in front of me. My skin is still on the suppressor.

    Thanks. I've been afraid of bears my whole life. This encounter did not scare me at all. It was one of the most exciting experiences I've ever had. Quite the adrenaline rush! The hike home was not fun. As soon as we retrieve the Rhino we will be back out trying to fill his tag.

    Any Roksliders hunting N of 3 Forks Ranch in CO unit 5 or WY unit 21? I need some help.

    I came up 5 days early to scout for my brothers hunt. I drove my old Yamaha Rhino to the end of a dead end road 8.5 miles from our camp and hiked about a mile in to a wallow I'd found a few years ago. There was a ton of recent elk, deer and bear sign. The day before opening day I took by...

    Any Roksliders hunting N of 3 Forks Ranch in CO unit 5 or WY unit 21? I need some help.

    Thanks! I drove 1,000 mls to help my brother with his first elk hunt. Might be his last. He wasn't prepared for the nighttime death march in the mountains. When he took off his sock this morning his big toenail fell off. We are quite the pair with my bandaged hand and his limp. He is...

    I failed to mention the 3rd burns I got on my left hand/thumb my first day here or getting charged by a 400lb black bear. This hunt will make for some great campfire stories. Thank God we are back at camp and in reasonably good health and spirit.

    Any Roksliders hunting N of 3 Forks Ranch in CO unit 5 or WY unit 21? I need some help.

    Hunted til dark and hiked out only to find out that my trusty Yamaha Rhino would not start. Replaced the fuel filter, spark plug and fuel pump but it will only sputter and die. I think I got some bad gasoline. Ran down the battery and then the battery pack/jump starter box. Decided to hike...

    Cheap Stuff that Works

    My home tap water has a very high mineral content and tastes terrible. We only drink it after it has gone through the RO system. The RO system cannot fill a 5 gallon container. I usually take cases of bottled water on my hunting camping trips to drink and my jerry cans are filled with tap...

    Cheap Stuff that Works

    My Walmart has a similar product. Bottles are $14 to buy and .36 a gallon to refill/seal. Trying it out this year for my drinking water. Much less waste than buying cases of water bottles.
