Your own argument applies here too.

Is this crab grass? I got this house 2.5 years ago. It was SEVERELY neglected on the outside. The first year in, I made HUGE improvements in the landscaping and in the yard. Then last year, I put some Scotts fertilizer down and come to find out, it was a bad bag and had been recalled by Scotts. It was too late, the damage was done. It killed half of my yard. Fast forward to this year. I over seeded in the spring and got alot of the dead areas to come back. Then later in the spring, I used the Scotts patch master to fill in some of the last remaining holes. It all looked great for about the month of June. Then in early July I started having these, what I thought were crab grass, areas start showing up. I got some of the Scotts fertilizer with crab grass preventer and weed killer. Now, 2 weeks later it seems to have fertilized the crab grass. It seems to be taking over my yard, and to top it off, it seems to be choking out the "good" grass. Am I incorrect about this being crab grass? Whatever it is, how can I kill it without killing my whole yard or having to pull it all up and do sod? Should I call Scotts and let them come treat it? Or do any of our resident landscapers wish to tackle this? The pics are in chronological order from taking possession of the house to my current problems. Thanks for any suggestions. http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Starleaf%20LN/DSCN1472.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Starleaf%20LN/DSCN1572.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Starleaf%20LN/IMG00102.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Starleaf%20LN/IMG00104.jpg http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/Starleaf%20LN/IMG00103.jpg

Amazing work Tim!

A good read I found on the Warrior. It sounds like they took alot from the R1 and made this bike. I like it....alot. http://www.motorcyclecruiser.com/roadtests/yamaha_road_star_warrior_1700/index.html

One of these two for sure. Honestly, I would say the Roadstar. It is more of a cross over like mine. I like the Nightster, I just don't think you will stay happy with it. You have the CBR for going fast and having fun, I would look now for something you can still have some fun on while being a little more comfortable and relaxed. Plus, with either one of these, you can be super cool while riding with Eden and I.

Same as this. My Ram came with one. It was a really nice one, probably a little nicer than that one even. It was white, so a semi popular color. Especially for service trucks that might use them more? Anyway, I had it for about 6 months trying to sell it, then finally let it go on eBay for $200. It was nice as some extra weight back there in the winter for when I wasn't in 4 wheel though. I just haul way too many big things in the bed to justify its use, so I took the low amount just to get rid of it.

Damn. What did it run? Wow. Awesome price for a clean and comfortable car. Is this on craigslist yet? Good luck with sale.

Totally thought today was Tuesday. I may be out there tomorrow.

Negative. You can use them, but you run the risk of the big boom. I would not chance it, especially on anything related to spark. Here are the parts you should need. It should all be the same as my old stock 350 5.7 was. It had the same Thunderbolt ignition on it. Definitely double check with your engine S/N though. Jegs unfortunately does not carry them. You may not need all these, especially the coil, but here are the part numbers anyway.

That little guy was awesome yesterday. A great pup you have there Tim.

Welcome. Nice rides. Teeth REALLY need to go though.

I picked it up this evening. Sorry. Thanks Tim!

I want the wagon.... Any chance we can meet half way somewhere? The drive is killer....

I may drop by......

+1 I have been to every steak house and nice restaurant in Columbus; if Steak and a fine dining experience is what you want - this is THE place to be. My personal favorite is the Porterhouse for two. 40+ ounces of pure sex. I order it for myself though, not to share!

Damn! So much truth here!

Thanks. From that Post on Dayton FBody: Can you find me one of these? I would even kick you a finders fee.

Do they still have the SS?

Right now I am looking for more major components. When I get into the actual swap, I will piece together the small stuff then. Plus, most of the internals will be changed out anyway. Not getting into too much of the build as I am still deciding on which way to take it (N/A, N2O, Boost), but it is a E39 5 Series. To give you an idea.... http://i177.photobucket.com/albums/w211/Matt86K5/DSCN1262.jpg Link to said video? If it is repairable, I may be interested. Whatever I get will be getting tore down and rebuilt anyway.

Let me see what I can find as far as what comes on the engine I buy. I will get back with you. What type of info do you need? I need the major components to put one of these in a car. Let me know how I can help with info. Thanks.

Let me know what you have and prices. I need pretty much everything from block to Manual trans to the wire harness. I would prefer a bare block, but would consider other depending on the deal. It will come apart regardless.

LOL - Don't know how I missed this. Do you forget I have seen this bayliner? LOL I want a couple of your bayliner racing stickers. I will put them on the Formula.

Anybody want to send me a quote on a water pump for my 1998 Ram 1500 4X4 auto trans with the 5.2 318 V8? How was that for a run on sentence? Anyway, send me a price. I need to get it in kinda soon, but not necessarily next day.

Awesome ideas. Check the marine carpet Lowes carries. That is where the carpet for the little boat is coming from. Decent selection - AWESOME prices. Only 6-8 dollars a yard. The sun pad is awesome to have. Great for laying out and much more sporty looking in my eyes. The carbon fiber is what I am going to do with all my hard interior panels. Sounds like yours will come out great. You already have a well built hull, so I wouldn't think twice about putting some moeny in it. If it was a bayliner though..........:gtfo:

LOL - You know me though. You know I did not pay CLOSE to that much. It is on par with paint jobs I have seen for that price though on the more expensive boats. Plus, if you just did one color, I bet it would be cheaper too. Less taping off and such.
