    Dog throws up in truck

    Our golden had problems when young on longer trips. Riding in the back seat with the window open seemed to get him interested in something other than his stress or motion sickness. I used to take him on very short trips in the truck and then do something fun with him like go for a hike or...

    Tire Chains

    I've had good luck with the heavier duty ones from Murdocks if there is one near you. Haven't used them hard but they seem to be holding up well.

    your good (or not so good) customer service interactions of late

    Good- LesSchwab tires in Anacortes, WA. Had them repack trailer bearings and new seals, did a great job, greased suspension and had it all done in a couple of hours. Riverside Archery in Mt. Vernon WA. These guys are great, usually have anything I need in stock and have fixed, tweaked a...

    Bumper Pull Trailer

    I decided to get a trailer for hunting after debating the wall tent/camper/trailer thing for a couple years. Decided on the trailer and, for me, it's worked great. Easy and quick for one person to set up/take down. So far it's been bear proof which is a concern where I hunt. Wife and I have...

    heading to tuscon az

    Great shotgun range in Tucson, and Ben Avery in Phoenix is amazing (3 sporting clays courses, 20? trap, 1000 yard rifle, and archery. The missle silo south of Tucson is interesting.

    Deafness and Hunting?

    If you think you have hearing loss, you do. Go to Costco and get tested (free). Costco offers hearing aids from the major brands at half the price. Generally, you get what you pay for but I haven't found that to be true with hearing aids. For protection good plugs (NRR 30+) and quality...

    small dog safe from big hawk?

    I wouldn't be too worried about hawks, but owls, yes. Had a great horned owl carry off a neighbors cat (big cat) like it was nothing. During Christmas dinner, with the kids watching. Dessert was kinda quiet.

    How’s your fuel prices

    Regular was $3.95 a week or so ago in MT. Same day I get back into WA and it was $4.79. Now it's up to $5.49. No reason for this, we're getting ripped again by the oil companies (with the governments help).

    What’s the worst kind of steep?

    Really steep + rocky + moss on rocks. Bonus points for the moss being really wet.

    Looking for Truck/Trailer/Towing opinions on a new Trailer

    Yep, but the 525 payload he expects to have is going to disappear with the heavier than advertised tongue weight on the much larger and heavier ORV he's looking at. They are famous for being heavier than listed and much heavier on the hitch. For example, ours shows tongue weight of 700 and...
