    Electric F150

    The misinformation in this thread is amazing. I laugh the whole way through. 10-12K hahaha. I too was misinformed until we test drove a few and found out the real numbers. We paid $500 for the Tesla charger and $500 for the install. Arizona has a $1K rebate that we received so the charger was a wash. We spend $35 a month extra on our electric bill to charge the car and we drive a lot. We can get a full charge in under an hour in the garage that happens at night while we sleep. No more oil changes, no more stopping to get gas in the morning and being late for work. We bought a Tesla model Y that was 3K more than the Toyota Highlander we were going to buy. Bought the vehicle in a few clicks rather than dealing with turbo salesmen at the lot. We paid 166 for 5 years of registration btw. The amount of money we are saving on gas and registration alone makes it worth it. Plus the car is very very fast and extremely fun to drive. We drove to California and back and I didn't steer or use the gas/brake pedals the entire time, and we spent $35 total to charge it both ways. My wife will not go back to ice vehicles. I wasn't a fan until I actually did the research and experienced it myself. It has a 8 year bumper to bumper warranty including the battery and the batteries are supposed to last 200,000-250,000 miles. Tesla comes to my house and does anything I want to free while I'm at work. If you need a car for driving around town its a no brainer. It's cheaper, faster and more fun to drive. That being said I'm keeping my Tacoma for hunting/fishing/camping. The electric thing isn't far enough along for that yet.

    Don't hire a guide. If theres any elk hunt in the state that you don't need a guide, thats it. Enjoy success from your own hard work. I can't stand dragging a guide around with me on an archery bull hunt. From your profile pic it looks like you have a lot of experience hunting, you should be fine if you can put some time into it.

    New Mexico draw

    Can't even draw the poverty tags! Glad we could in the past. My kids have no hope of getting tags which is really unfortunate.
  5. My concern is where this is going. LE hunts may turn into hundreds of auction tags like Utah. Why have them a draw when you can get 10X or 100X the money with them all being auctioned? Its a slippery slope.

    OTC hunts for 2023

    From what I've heard it would start Jan 1 through Dec 31st. So January would be guaranteed open but August and December could close. I could be wrong though. Anyone have good info in this?

    Polaris extended warranty and service plan

    No. Extended warranties are where the dealers make most of their money. If you can do the basic stuff on your own occasionally you will save money without it. How much is your time worth?

    He drew antelope, not elk. Don't point guard it. You will likely wait 20 years to draw that again

  18. Anyone on here just finish up the 23 December rifle mule deer hunt? Looking to talk to someone who had the tag. Send me a message.

    Feeling a bit discouraged

    It's nerves. When you get too excited you always seem to screw it up, at least I do. Stay calm, focus on shooting properly, make the opportunity count. You worked too hard to get that opportunity to screw it up. You can look at antlers later.

    where's the guy with the 3c tag?

    Saw this on Instagram...what’s your take?

    There will always be a small percentage that lie, but Flatlander is right. We will get better data from mandatory reporting, not perfect, but better than current info. Better info on how the deer herd is doing is always a good thing. I agree with you on the baiting/camera thing.

    Saw this on Instagram...what’s your take?

    Good question. Anyone know? I’m assuming it will be an estimated number of archery harvest allowed per unit and changed each year from the previous years numbers.
