  1. I'm a snowmobile rube if you guys haven't figured that out yet, lol!!! My parents neighbour said the spiked track on mine chews up enough ice as is, no need for these things.
  2. Cools the sliders and for the aircooled sleds cools the exchangers as well.
  3. +1 on 6lb FC and 4-6lb Drennan flouro.
  4. That's what I'm talking about!!!! As long as there is a diesel swap in there somewhere :) Hell, even the LX470/450s's with a lift and some tires are wicked off road. All that luxury and off road capabilities to boot! We tow a 5th wheel + boat, no hiccups from our 2500HD Duramax.. The mileage isn't anything to write home about, but it will pull whatever you want.
  5. You're drunk if you think a Tahoe gets 8mpg. The Vortec 5.7 with the 4L80E is the defines the term reliable... Let's not even get into the debate about the Tundra vs everything else. Should I start with the fact that the Tundra doesn't even have a SERVICEABLE REAR DIFF????????? That's the mark of a real truck if you ask me, lol.
  6. Great looking coho! Love the kypes on those things.
  7. I've seen a the sticker prices on those... Ouch!!!
  8. He wants decent mileage, the Tundra doesn't get it, lol.
  9. Hold any fish 2ft from your body and it will look like a monster Steelhead guys do this all the time, lol!!!!
  10. 4Runners are awesome trucks, but they are only a few mpg's above your typical V8 trucks... If Toyota only brought one over with the diesel under the hood. www.fuelly.com is a great site to check real world mpg numbers.... I suggest you check it out.
  11. Lots and lots of steel out there boys No ice fishing equipment required!
  12. I doubt Toyota will put out the $$$$ in order for it to meet current emission regs.. We can only dream!
  13. The only thing better then a 4Runner would be the Hilux diesel! Alas we'll never get that machine here...
  14. 2011 for steelhead.. Have learned so much over the past 3 years, can apply those skills to new systems and always come away a happy camper. My oldman had a pretty good year!
  15. Dave, your Pilot is only AWD when the speed sensors kick in and the computer realizes the front tires are going faster then the rears.. Other then that, it's FWD.. I wish Honda had a better AWD/4x4 system with locking diffs.. (My BIL owns a Ridgeline, same deal)
  16. No breed out there has a 'locking jaw'. Unfortunately some breeds can do a whole hell of a lot more damage in a small amount of time then others.
  17. LOL!! I think it might be woven out of unicorn hair...
  18. The EcoBoost isn't living up to it's MPG claims as Ford expected, it doesn't get much better (if any at all) then the V8 Ford offers...
  19. Me either, let's just hope that's what they do, lol
  20. Mike, the EcoBoost is a turbo charged V6 making 365hp/420ftlbs. It's pretty much dead on with the V8 motors that Ford offers. Now a normal, naturally aspirated V6, absolutely... I'd pick a V8 over that anyday...
  21. If it had VHS, I'd think they ban anyone from gathering bait from the lake.
  22. 6lb Nanofil is like dental floss! lol! Use it on my Frogwater, it's awesome stuff!
  23. I'm sure that would work fine... Remove the clicker so you get a decent freespool when letting line out.
