  1. Some trigger therapy in the desert was in order today... Fun fact, that ratty mag came from one of my best friends... He smoked terrorists using it in Afghanistan... It's got a special place in the collection
  2. I once read Bill Gates dropping $300k is the equivalent of the average American purchasing a postage stamp. And that was at least 10yrs ago. I have a hard time even comprehending that much money lol.
  3. Did they say why this is? Interesting.
  4. The wife and I have this game 😂 it's better than the original.
  5. So many memories of busted knuckles from these things....
  6. Sent this to my father in law.. He's in Ohio and wants an FJR.. Not sure if he's ready to buy one right now or not though. You forgot to post the mileage, btw.
  7. While I still think this was a dumb fight to pick, it's awesome to see the system work for the little people 😂. Congrats to everyone who put in the effort on this. Special shout out for having to deal with Tonic so much through the process.
  8. I don't like the powered running boards... They get in the way. My truck has a huge double moon roof but I'll probably never use it... My luck it'd get stuck open or start to leak lol. Never been a sun roof person, if I could snap my fingers and have a solid roof I would do it. However, the glass roof helped sell it to my wife... So 🤷🏻‍♂️🤣
  9. My step-dad has had some awful experience with Fords recently so I hear you lol. I left the house to go test drive a Ram and I ended up at a GMC dealer buying a Ford 😂
  10. Other than some badging, the only thing his truck has that mine is missing is powered running boards and heated rear seats. He also paid 10k more for his and it's a generation older. So far I love the Lariat. I've never had anything but base model trucks before now.
  11. It's all I ever own, if I can help it. I've had way more good than bad. I blame the size of the engine in the fusion more than the brand. It's too hot here and I have too heavy of a foot to drive a 1.5L 200ish hp turbo 4 banger; I really think I just ran it down. The 5.0 NA motor is much better and I don't have to run it to redline to merge onto the freeways lol
  12. So after the engine blew in my fusion at 80k miles I just didn't trust it anymore with the replacement engine. I traded it in on a new (to me) truck that is so unpractical, but I fucking love it... So oh well. It only gets 13mpg and I can't park it at my job because the garage is too short there; I have to park it a half mile away and pay an extra $30 to use the garage between the stadiums downtown lol. Garages above 6'8" are rare here, or so I found out recently. It's a 2015 F150 with a 5.0. At least she's pretty. Got tired of my father-in-law bitching about scratches on his truck when we take it out to the desert to go shooting. So I got my own lol. His truck is a Platinum edition so he acts like it's too nice to get dirty. This one is a Lariat and seems to have all the same shit as his. Not sure what the difference even is, but this one is gonna get dirty lol.
  13. I made the same choice... After about 3yrs the drive never got better and I was never really satisfied... If the drive is "killing" you then don't move further. There will be other houses. I used to commute almost 2hr each way to live in the house we loved. Eventually it wore on me hardcore.
  14. I know for sure I celebrated midnight eastern time... My wife says I made it until midnight here, but fuck if I remember that part of the night 😂 🥂 Happy New Year, fuckers.
  15. I can't believe I watched all 10 minutes of this. With a look of disgust. 🖕🏻
