I put all my trucks away during the winter salt months and drive a jeep Cherokee. Mine has 215k on it now. I oil coat it twice a year and so far it's 99% rust free. I believe it was 99 and up that they had head gasket and cracking issues once they went to coil packs. The only real problems I've had with mine was a broken leaf spring from our crap roads, and rear axle bearings. I put a 3" lift in it to replace all the springs and new bearings and it's been going strong. In fact I like it enough that I just bought a plow for it so I don't have to snow blow the shop anymore. I have a 5x8 trailer I've towed a lot of diesel motors to the machine shop with it, and many deer from the middle of the woods to the butcher shop.

My brother and I put an airdog on a 06 dmax today. They sure have those things a lot more install friendly than when I put mine on 5 years ago. Took two of us today about 4 hours which included a couple 15 min parts runs. Now that I've done one I think we could do one in 1-1.5 hours.

Went to a hockey game tonight. Despite having no interest in hockey I had a good time (it was also free). 2 fights in the first 6 minutes, and when it'd go to commercial on the tv women in short skirts with shovels come out to clear the ice

Nice adjustment to your sig kiddo.

[DMan1198]

Thanks Pete. I figured it was about time considering how mugh effort I put into it

Found a snowblower attachment for my cub cadet. Hopefully going to look at it in the next few days. I'm beyond excited. These things are super rare, I've only ever seen one in person and heard about the one Pete used to have.

Eric Gilbert weren't you looking for something like this? Needs a bit of work.

GT mounted snowblowers are awesome! I mounted mine earlier this winter and it rocks. I used it this morning to clear up to 3' drifts off the farm drives. Make sure to use chains and weights. I have loaded tires (75lb each) and chains and its not enough. I need about another 150 lbs for good traction.

Looks like his style for sure!

[RCCUMMINS89]

Yes, I was looking for one last year. We finally threw in the towel and decided we'll just venture with the newer stuff.

It's got a VE on it! Too bad the idiot cut the original hood, do you think the turbo has anything to do with the bad head gasket?

[DMan1198]

Probably. I'm almost willing to bet there was some oralling going on as well since nobody does a hood stack unless you're A: a douche or B: you hotrod

Hey DMan is your 12 a long bed?? If so can you take measurements of the bed?? Length and the width at the front and rear of the bed??

Tom Brady, Super Bowl MVP, gave his Chevy Colorado to Malcolm Butler in appreciation for his interception.
Brady offered it to Pete Carroll, who elected to PASS
Of course Brady had to deflate the tires before Malcolm could accept the truck. All for better off-road traction

[DMan1198]

Yeah long bed. You want inside right, so you know if you could fit something?
