Dam Yankee cold air invasion. No wonder them Yankees are always grumpy and rude. There should be a law against cold weather. I vote Rick for the chairman of weather. No wait, he wants it to be 100 degrees all the time. I guess we need a more moderate weather chairman. Dang politics, the extremists mess everything up.

If you elect me chairman of weather, I promise sunny days, highs in the low-to-mid 70s, lows in the mid-60s, and rain only on Mondays in the middle of the work day, with a break during lunch. Oh yeah, two nice cars in every garage and a chicken in every pot.

For several years I put together and printed an annual reports for the Oklahoma City Housing Authority. The requirements depended on whether they were at risk of losing funding. If at risk the report had to look like it was cheaply produced. If they were not at risk the report had to look like it was expensively produced. I got paid the same and one year making it look cheaply produced actually cost more.
Weather determined by any elected position would suck most of the time as it would be highly influenced by the contributing lobbyists and special interested groups, and only be good a few months before re-election time.

That truck is probably fine for what you are using it for. The ones from Radio Shack would probably work as well if it isn't really rough ground. You can get some tracked vehicles in that price range as well. They can even shoot back with airsoft ammo.
We did the high velocity hole poking last weekend. It was not paper though. Emily had a great time even if Jacob thought she shot a cow "on accident". She did not, just to be clear. And dang it Glen, us peoples in the northern states are not grumpy. We are not, I tell you, grumpy in any way whatsoever so take your grumpy weather comment...Call us grumpy will you. Why I oughta. Grumpy, hmmph. By the way, Saturday was ball cap and sweatshirt with a blaze orange vest weather out walking for deer. Cold today and I have the truck that won't heat up properly.

I'd thought of a tracked vehicle, but in concerned about serviceability..... It seems pretty nonexistent until you get into the ones that run serious change.
Might have to check out a radio shack. I want something that'll be fun to just bash around a bit as well as suit my needs on range. |

Took my MIL out for dinner tonight, I parked the Boxster at her house and we piled up in Beth's car and while at dinner someone piled up onto the front of the Boxster. No metal damage that I could see in the dark but the front bumper cover is shifted. I hate people

Joe, For what you are doing I'd pick up one of the ECX Trucks from Horizon. Mikester on here has a few and loves them. Seems to be a lot of bang for the buck!

Got started buffing on the pickup tonight. It has lots of deep scratches on the tailgate and bedsides from his hunting dogs. Not going to get them all out I think, but I think I can turn it into a 5ft truck instead of a 10ft truck. Will look pretty decent for a 180k mile rig.
