  1. I don't think I'll ever get rid of my S10 ZR2. However a 4BT (or even TDI swap) would be fantastic.
  2. I hope these are Coast Guard approved :)
  3. 2015 Canyon with the 2.8 Duramax Can't wait until those show up on the dealer lots.
  4. Good point. If the motorcyclists weren't paying attention and slammed into the back of a disabled car, who's at fault now? The guy who's car broke down? I highly doubt it. Even in this case, the motorcyclist has to take some responsibility.
  5. I'd spend more $$$ on a set of waders then I would a reel. I'm guilty of spending quite a bit of $$$ on centerpin reels, but in the end all they do is hold line. Sure you'll have better start up on some vs others and better bearings etc, but if it's not in your budget, get a cheap reel (Especially if it's for a second setup) and spend that extra $$$ on waders. Islanders are workhorses, I'd take that everyday over a KingPin. You could fish it for years and probably sell it for what you bought it for as long as you take care of it.
  6. People say the winner is chosen every 4 years.. It's nothing new
  7. Did you also observe the weather/waves in that pic compared to the other ones? I'm guessing no.
  8. Definitely a bad bad move, but I'm guessing target fixation played a big role in this as well. How do you just slam into the back of a parked car? It's not like she instantly stopped, and obviously they weren't right behind her.... It's just a crappy situation all around.
  9. You can absolutely put me in the 'respect your quarry' boat. We also know chinooks are terrified of marshmellows.
  10. You shouldn't have to but anything that helps with wear and tear during cold starts is a good thing in my books. If you can without too much of a hassle, absolutely yes. Also, don't let it idle, start it up, let it even it self out then drive it. You won't gain any sort of engine temp in the winter by letting it idle for 10-15mins.
  11. I really can't get upset when the MNR stops me, I actually look forward to it. Always like to hear what they've got to say, especially the guys doing the fish surveys.
  12. Is that the guy that tossing actual spoons with hooks? lol
  13. Diesel vehicles also get better mileage when it's hot and muggy outside. Winter diesel has less BTU's per litre because of the anti gelling treatment it receives at the refinery.. So don't worry once it's -30 out and you're getting not so stellar mileage
  14. You need to stick your head up there and see what's going on.
  15. Wasn't he hammered about 80% of the time?
  16. Nick, anytime you wanna show me some spots on 6 Mile, we'll load up the Lund and head out
  17. I wouldn't even call that soccer. Did Greece get over center more then 2 times the entire game? And Japan? Might wanna get a bit closer to the net before you attempt to score.
  18. Good advice for anything with a turbo, especially with all the emissions crap they slap on vehicles today.
  19. Ugh, please PLEASE post pics of the RZ!!!! I took a ride on a RG500 Gamma 'Walter Wolf' exactly one time and have never even come close to riding something like that again! Insanity is really the best way to describe it.
  20. Jake brakes on that stretch of highway? There aren't any hills. You sure you didn't wake yourself up snoring?
  21. 6 Mile is great.. My parents take my niece there once a year for a week or so.. I just drive up after work, do some fishing with the oldman and whip the girls around on the tube
