    The 67 is a better bug than the 69 🙂

    I totally agree. I have a 69 that I am almost done restoring, wish I had an earlier model. 

    JBugs.com will be your new friend if you are need of restoration. 

    Good luck !! Post pics

    Fox or CNN pick your poison. If you watch the news all day you will be miserable. 

     

    I can not agree with your more on this !

    My wife works from home and watches Fox news all day long. I get it, that is our channel of choice when it comes to news but ........ All day long all she listens to is negativity about this and that. Weather it is true or not, you can not subject yourself to that all day everyday. I have seen a change in her. Very snappy at everything that is said and has a long winded comment about everything. I tell her to take a break from it and watch something else... So she puts on a Channel that plays Criminal Minds all day long !! What happened to the feel good shows that made you laugh and not think about anything in the work other than the moment you are in ?

  3. I too grew up in the 70's and 80's and was very much into the skateboard scene. Did the whole ramp in the back yard, had the where abouts of every empty pool around ! Definitely good times. Watch a little "Search for Animal Chin" and then go shred.

    There is another interesting documentary that is less exciting to watch than the Hawk one. It chronicles the story of Mark "the Gator" Rogowski who rode for Vison boards Stoked: The Rise and Fall of Gator .

  4. I have been through termites in the past and paid big money to have my house treated professionally. However, we recently had a few trails pop up on the foundation around our garage. I called a few places and they wanted the big bucks to place termite traps around the house and then they would monitor them and treat as needed. So I looked into it and you can buy a 6 pack of traps with bait and poison for way less. Dig a small hole by your foundation and set it in and burry it. You monitor it yourself and when you see activity in a trap you simply replace the bait with supplied poison. Look for termite bait stations on Amazon. Save yourself a few dollars.

    put a webpage on the domain with a for sale sign and your phone number or contact info... that will cut out any middle man.

     

    if anyone ever wants to buy it they will find the contact info on the page and reach out directly.

     

     

    DO this ^ but maybe use an email vs phone #.

    If you are not contacted by next renewal, then let it lapse ?

    Good luck. 

    Sports betting is big right now, so I would imagine those would be the sought after sites.

    I had an 2013 F150 with 3.5 V6 Ecoboost.  I liked it a lot, I am looking for another one right now.

    I towed my boat and enclosed with it as well.  Boat was around 5,000lbs, towed it to Powell and back a few times, zero issues.  I also have towed my 24" box trailer loaded with buggy and two bikes, full of fuel and water as well.  Power is no issues, brake controller works well as well.  Tongue weight was the only concern.  If I was going to tow the box trailer a lot with it, I would add airbags to it.  It gets really squishy in the rear (I know some people like that 😁).

    I only put 87 octane in it, mileage is mediocre as well, I think I got around 15 empty around town.

    I bought it with 15,000 miles on it, sold to my son and now it has 110,000 miles on it, zero issues.

    Thanks, it has the 2" level kit on front, 1 " in the rear and air bags. It also has a boat load of aftermarket engine stuff, tuner, CAI, Exhaust. Claiming 500hp ?

    It also has the 10 speed transmission which I am not familiar with either. I am not a "Ford Guy" which is why I am looking for input. I am in negotiations right now and if he meets my price I want to be sure before I pull the trigger. 

  7. Looking for real life input on these trucks. I am looking to get a 2018 F150 with the 3.5 ecoboost. I would only be doing light towing with the truck. 

    What is the trailer assist for ? 

    According to owners manual online, it says they recommend using 87-93 octane depending on elevation ? So at 1000'  87 would be fine ? Thinking of gas prices right now !

    Thanks in advance for any input.

  8. In AZ they did shutdown all of the forest during our dry spell. The reason they said was not only to keep the dumb asses from burning it down, but as our monsoon storms started up and lightning was causing fires everywhere, it allowed all the resources to fight or contain fires and not have to go through and find people / campers to evacuate. I am not defending, just repeating what was said. 

    Regardless, California has a big problem on their hands right now with fires.  

  9. I have never been to Laughlin and we decided to join a car club do a 9-11 cruise to Laughlin. We will only be there one night. But is there anything that is interesting or a must see while there ? Anything that is a "stay far away from" while there ?  Thanks in advance.

    Here’s our crew for this trip. Mr. & Mrs. Buttcrack (she’s in pink), my wife’s best friend, my youngest, 15 year old (on top) and 2 of her best friends (one is the daughter of my wife’s best friend in the picture).

    It’s been a great trip. Flying home Saturday. 
     

    Completely shutting down my business for 2 weeks was the best decision. 
     

    Totally relaxed.

    Peace.

    That is strange...everyone seems to be smiling !!

    You must be doing it wrong !!

  11. I am not new to stock trading but I am new to crypto currency.

    Why is it that Fidelity, Ameritrade, and other big investment companies do not trade crypto currency ?

    Why is it so hard to set up a crypto account with these various smaller ones and what is a crypto wallet ? 

    Are all these challenges really red flags or is it designed to be difficult to keep would be investors away ??

  12. Great thread, I am looking for cabinets right now. I am looking at the NewAge Bold series brand that Costco carries. Anyone have any experience with these ? 

    Also, I am having my garage, patio, and carport done with a newer product that is some sort of poly-something or another that supposedly stands up to the sun light and does not turn color ? 10 year warranty for sun exposed areas, lifetime for garage and non exposed areas. Roughly 2500 sqf.

    Did it have yellow mags?

    Chrome Molly frame with black mags. I was about 10 years old, so I don't remember details like model or anything.

    That would be greatly appreciated! The one I posted is a good price. What scares me is they come disassembled in a box. I would hate to drive all the way out there and all the way back only to find out something is missing. Then have to deal with trying to get what I need. That’s why I’m looking for a trusted seller. Not to say that the one I posted isn’t legit. This is the bike I’ve always wanted. I couldn’t afford it when it came out and now they are next to impossible to find. When you do find them, people are asking crazy money for them!

    I had a Mongoose that was just like that back in the 80's. All chrome molly with mags. I thought I was the $hit riding that thing around the neighborhood. 

    Good luck with your search.
