  1. aren't they one in the same?
  2. The 300 ford 6 cylinder is a powerhouse,, and with proper buld will outrun most V'8s.. There are a few guys experimenting with LS heads, custom intakes, and custom headers that are making very impressive power numbers. I have heard 300 6 cylinders rumbling that would make a 427 chevy hang its head In shame.
  3. luckily i do not need a log book, or elog either as i never go more than 100 miles from home, and return there every day.
  4. i am a back road driver. and will do it every chance i get. i hate major highways. way too many idiots on them.
  5. not to worry pal, i lassoed the roosters testiculars and staked them down tight to remind him of the time change.
  6. you never "had it" to begin with..... and what you "remember" is cause by "ice cream brain freeze" just like your unklejoe. 🤪
  7. out of their play book. rule #1 is :accuse your opponent of what you are guilty of.

  9. I remember man from snowy river. Good movie. If I remember correctly kirk Douglas was the main charactor
  10. agreed, if i copy paste i post pics. if i try to post from stored on the computer they tend to not work.
  11. i sure do not miss hay season!!!
  12. another picture tease: with caption "I will be removing the second transmission tomorrow"
  13. I have had the heat on for a few weeks now. But it is set at 65. We had a cold snap and it was dropping into the 40's at night which in turn was dropping the house down around 60.
  14. my connex and galaxys are all pushing 50 watts on CB channels, 75 watts on 10 meter bands.
  15. wow, those things are bad!!! first thing i would have done was let the air out of them before toughing them
  16. here are some pics of his progress:
  17. ouch!!!! kidney stones suck big time. even worse when they need to be surgically removed!!
  18. i was always a fan of the galaxy radios. i had a 959, then moved up to the DX88. but the new overheads need a front port mike, so the galaxy was out. my radio guy said the connex was the next best thing to the galaxy 88, so i picked it up 6 years ago. only thing i do not like about it is there is no frequency meter, so it is kind of hard to know what channel you are on without an external frequency meter.
  19. Age should not nake any difference. Antenna and power source are usually the culprits. The cobra 29 classic in the other truck died. So I put an old 23 channel ssb sidebander 2 in it until I could get a new radio. The boss loves it and asked if he could buy it. It sat on the shelf better part if 30 years also and still out performs the connex CX33HPC-1 10 meter radio I have in my truck
  20. Speaker would fit up there though, and be easier to hear.
  21. i have not noticed much of a difference between the 1200 and 1100 tires other than weight capacity
  22. You will gain top speed, but loose pulling power
  23. Problem with Hooking up to the battery is you have to remember to turn the radio off, or it can kill the battery if sitting a while The reason they say to hook to battery is some of the bigger radios use up to 20 amp draw. And most fusebox circuits are only under 10 amps. I hook to the battery through a 30 amp relay that is triggered to a key on power source.
  24. your wife still works rite???? she can buy one for you.🤣
  25. Have her send them in private message On bottom of page is an envelope looking page. Click on it than on new. Paste the pictures into thar. You will most likely need to add my user name into send to box
