    18"-24" long 1/2" drive breaker-bar utility. Keep one somewhere in your vehicle along with the proper sized socket for your wheel lug-nuts, maybe a few other sizes, like whatever size might remove a hitch-ball from a draw-bar/bumper. A buddy nick-named said tool a "Persuader". 3-4tn bottle...

    Ford did you really fk up the 5.0 -- wow

    Got it, thanks. I had an '01 and an '05 5.4L and can't say I ever saw the temp creep up on either of them in ~150K combined between the 2. You ever use a garden hose and get all the dust/bugs out of your radiator? Obviously don't do this when it's warm, just pick a nice day before you drive...

    Ford did you really fk up the 5.0 -- wow

    I'm not arguing, nor discounting what you say when I ask: What does "struggling" mean to you? With that kind of load behind any gas motor pickup I'd expect to lock out Overdrive like you could on an '03 on the end of the gear-selector stalk, even if you've got 3:73's, the lowest gears they...

    10/22 Stuff

    Pass me a 12, 25, or 37 before a 97 please. All 3 are far less Rube Goldbergish than the '97. In regards to the OP, I did a Timney group with under-lever magazine release on a Magnum Research Carbon 22 Mag that made me happier than the issued trigger. I replaced the trigger in my AMT...

    Egg Strangeness

    The number of folks who truly comprehend how essential CLEAN/POTABLE water is, is really really small. Complete lack of water will kill you pretty doggone fast. Lack of CLEAN water will kill you more slowly with much more agony. Regarding chickens, a whole bunch were killed, so more eggs will...

    200hp on 14’ boat

    Would've been interesting to see some slo-mo of the hull-flex. Nobody got hurt and nothing had to be recovered from the bottom of the lake. Alls well that ends well.

    Diner Hash Browns

    You can also used boiled or baked potatoes for hash browns. You still have to grate them but you don't have to do all that soaking, drying, etc.

    Homicide ? Alec Baldwin

    I'd be REALLY interested to see how this played out if the justice system were truly "blind". What I mean by that is the jury members don't know and never see who's being tried, just the lawyers, witnesses, and their arguments. I realize this goes against facing your accuser as well as...

    F-150/2.7 Ecoboost

    60-90 seconds of idling a turbo when you start it, and especially before you shut it down will do wonders for longevity. On start-up, let some oil and coolant get up there and circulating where it needs to be. Regarding shut-down, 60-90 sec of idling will do a lot to cool the bearings back...

    Sitka gear…..$$$$

    Rule #1: Manage self-created moisture (sweat), get it away from your skin and evaporating/drying as quickly as possible. I don't bird hunt early-season in cotton T-shirts anymore, I usually wear a long-sleeved vented lightweight "fishing" shirt that dries fast and cools me as it does. If a...

    Bites of the Past

    The all summer long shallow crank-bait/swimbait bite on Devils. Started to wane in 2015 as the water really started to go down. Not that there aren't still shallow fish but the numbers aren't what they used to be.
