  1. 50 inch pike (Oh so close at 48.5 inches) This spring though, I feel it!!!!!
  2. You've never been down to Port Hope during salmon season have you..
  3. You don't live or work in the city do you.
  4. Yup, 4.3 Vortex under the hood. It's just a 2in body lift, nothing special. Suspension lifts for these trucks are pretty expensive and way to high for my liking (6inch BDS lift for example). Stock tires/rims are 31x10.5x15 with a 6in backspace, mine are 285/75-16(33x12x16) with a 5in backspace so they poke out quite a bit more then stock. BFG All-Terrain TA's came with the truck, these are Toyo Open Country MT's... I'll post a front shot so you can see how different the offset is, lol. I also have the lower flarettes removed if you can tell. As for the truck itself I love it, I've pulled more big trucks out of the mud then you can imagine. Can't touch a short wheelbase truck in the mud, I don't care how many ponies you have underneath the hood. I don't commute in it (I have a TDI for that) so I basically drive it in the city and when I go fishing... Here is stock when I bought it. Front shot as it sits now.
  5. I drive a '03 S10 ZR2. With stock tires I was pulling 20mpg tanks on the highway pretty regularly.. But after the lift and new tires, I'm seeing about 14mpg on average, lol. I get about the same mileage as my oldmans '07 2500HD Duramax.. In short, these trucks suck for mileage... Engines are pretty much bulletproof, except for the intake manifold gasket issues some earlier engines had. My truck.
  6. Tie a bottle of vodka to a rope and tow it behind your car in the Erindale parking lot.
  7. We could use a few of those in eastern tribs to grab the unsuspecting idiots casting spoons into 2ft of water.
  8. I gotta sell the brand new Mustang Integrity HX I got last year, it's not tall enough, lol.
  9. I'm going to have to make a drift with that sucker tomorrow
  10. Mike, awesome fish man!! I didn't get out much for specs at all this year, however I did bag this lady last week on a big articulated leech.
  11. Let's hope people don't read page 7 of the regs and think it's 2 lol
  12. Dave, one day I'll make it up there Awesome fish man, that dolly is unreal!!!!
  13. Limit isn't 5 in the tribs.. The more you know.
  14. New Avid float rod along with a lower end Okuma. Will get the job done with ease.
  15. I hope the OP didn't eat that thing.
  16. You are correct. I love my unit.. Everything from bushwacking into Chapleau back lakes to using BlueCharts out on Simcoe in the winter for lakers and whities.. Absolutely love it.
  17. Best answer yet. The Cherokees are bulletproof, everything from the engine down to the diffs.. If you want something to get dirty and go to all the nasty places, this is it. Also, forget fuel mileage, SUV's usually suck (Especially the Supercharged Xterra, lol)
  18. You're right, all those black boots swimming up the Notty this year must have been catfish. Thanks again for the eye opening insight. :facepalm:
  19. You don't know what would have happened, give it a rest already. Along with the muskie police, we also have a psychic onboard!!! Lucky us!
