Thinking about getting a cover for my F150. I hate watching it bake in the sun. It does not fit too well in the garage, only 1 inch to spare when closing the garage door. Not to mention, the wife and both daughters are occupying garage space now that they are home from college. Any suggestions on a good cover? Any suggestions on covers to avoid? Never used one, so I am not even sure if they are worth it. But, I feel like I should try to save the paint and interior.......thanks.

Yea, and then I would be trying to find space not only for my truck, but for my bed as well........besides, I would be in the same situation, watching one of their vehicles bake in the sun. And seeing how they are all worth as much as my truck, it would be a losing deal...........

I missed this post and as I read through it, my heart sank for you and your family. As a father of two girls, it is easy to feel your pain. Not to mention one of god daughters is named Gabi. Praying that she gets stronger every day. I am glad that she is back at school and can be around her friends, that is so good for the soul. Best of luck to her and her friend on the javelina hunt. -
So great! Congratulations.....sounds like my dad, except he is 81.

Looks like a great deer to me - hard to pass up.....especially broadside at 220 yards.

Great - I appreciate the referrals.

Does anyone on here do stucco work? Or, does anyone have a good referral? We need some estimates for our house - only looking to get 3 sides done. Leaving the red brick in front.......One story house located around 56th street and Greenway. Thanks!

Thanks so much for the pack. This is really nice of you. My daughter will be excited for the next hunt! Merry Christmas.

Selling my grandfather's China cabinet hutch. It is around 40 years old and is in great condition. It has been moved once - from his house to my house. Price lowered to $80 - the wife already bought a new one and I would rather not move this one into the garage. Two pieces and I can help load. Dimensions are: Deep - 18 inches High - 80 inches Wide - 57 inches

Price has been reduced to $80.....I now have two hutches in my dining room - this one really needs to go......

Still available..... It is two pieces, so it is easy to move and the glass shelves come out, so it is safe to transport.......

TJ - Nice talking to you about this antelope hunt when I saw you up on the elk hunt. My nephew did not get an elk, ended up being a tougher hunt than previous years......Hope your archery elk hunt went well. You still ended up with a good antelope. Like you said, kind of bitter sweet......

Thanks for the input. I am going to try the 275 and see what happens. I am hoping that I can shoot a bit farther without too much drop.

It has been quite a few years since I hunted the HAM hunt. As I am getting ready for this year's hunt, I am thinking of changing up the load and bullets that I use. I have a T/C New Englander 50 Cal and in year's past, the load I use is 90 grains of Pyrodex with a 355 grain Prelubricated Maxi-Hunter. This has been the best shooting load out of this gun. I have also shot a 370 grain Maxi-Balls with good results. I killed a javelina a few years back using this load with a 355 grain Maxi-Hunter. Here is my question - I need to buy more bullets and shoot a bit before the hunt. It looks like the Maxi-Hunter now comes in 350 grains and 275 grains. Do you guys think a 275 grain Maxi-Hunter is adequate for javelina? If so, do you think I can get away with 80 grains of powder? I know I will have to experiment a bit just wondering what you guys think. I use open sights and am good to about 80 yards. I just don't want to have to adjust sights and may just stick with the 350 grain........thanks.

What a great hunt - congrats to your daughter!

Looking to sell my 1994 Toyota DX 4x4. It is the Xtra Cab model with a V6 and 5 speed manual. I am the original owner and the truck has 170,600 miles. The truck has been used for hunting and has been well maintained. Over all very solid. The paint and interior is pretty good. Except for the fiberglass shell, hood and top of the cab - all has faded somewhat and can be seen in the pictures. AC is cold and the heat is hot. 4x4 works great, engine is strong. Has never been used for towing. Front seats have always been covered. No accidents. Timing belt has been replaced once. The good - All replaced within the last two years - New front axles, shocks, radiator and hoses and heater hoses. Tires are two years old (31.5 x 15 Yokohomas). The idler arm and pitman arm were replaced 2 years ago. Front brake pads were also replaced 2 years ago. One year ago, spark plugs and wires were replaced, front wheel bearings were repacked, and charcoal canister (emissions) was replaced. Rear axle seals have just been replaced and new rear brake pads installed. The bad - Shell and hood could be painted. Rest of the paint is great. The power steering pump is leaking and should be rebuilt, not difficult to do. I add fluid every 4- 5 weeks. Very small oil leak. The cold idle is a little fast - around 1300 rpms. But, once it warms up, runs at 800 rpms. The driver's side door handle is loose. Still works fine, but may need to be replaced in the future. Truck is a little dirty in the pictures........
