    Tire update - Nitto's response

    Nitto and Toyo are basically the same company. Usually it is the other way around though. Nitto's are cheaper, and Toyos are more expensive. I had a set of the Toyo AT's and wasn't overly impressed.

    WTB: Engine Stand

    Long shot, but worth a shot. Does anyone have a basic rolling engine stand they want to sell? I am in Glendale but travel around town for work. Let me know. Thanks

    Tire update - Nitto's response

    I know that people talk crap about BFG on heavy trucks but I have had probably 6 sets on 2 different Dodge 2500 diesels with good success. I am not hauling heavy all the time but my previous truck was loaded with tools, ladders, chains, and construction materials all the time and I would get 60k from a set with mostly highway miles. They have the new "DT" compound that is harder and specifically designed for heavier trucks. They have a 50k Treadway warranty.

    Tire update - Nitto's response

    I think I am headed in soon for another set of BFGs. They have always been good to me. I am intrigued by the Goodyear ultra-terrain but they dont have a tread life warranty either for the 3 peaks rated version so I will probably stick with BFG.

    LIBS

    Does freedom of speech only apply to the words published in the dictionary in 1776, or speech types and patterns used then? Are words on paper only protected if they were written with a quill and ink? By the arguement they put up about guns rights, nothing on the internet is protected by the 1st since it wasn't available then. All words written with ballpoint pens, typewriters, computers, etc are not protected...right...?

    Gov tag buck

    He did that buck a favor. It must have been a heck of a chore just holding those things up.

    Veteran POW

    My wife's grandfather served with a crew of anti-aircraft half tracks in WW2 in Europe. He was an amazing man, that I was proud to have known before his passing almost 5 years ago. He didn't talk about the war much, but he did tell us some of his stories, and we have many of his pictures and letters from when he was over seas. He was a rancher and farmer in normal life, and was as tough as they came. He worked every day on his ranch into his 90's. In his 90's he could not see very well, but he could still back up the tractor to the attachments with no help in 1 shot. Late in life he was at the VA with my mother in law and a nurse mentioned his file showed he received a bronze star. He would never tell anyone why or talk about it. My older son was fortunate enough to meet him, but he passed 2 weeks before our younger son who is named after him. Lawrence Huntington, you are missed by so many. RIP.

    Anyone work at Discount Tire

    I have never understood that either. I had 2 studs out of 8 broken once and knew something was wrong. By the time the 3rd snapped I was already looking for a safe place to pull off.

    Ever regret passing on a shot?

    Last deer season my 3 year old gave me words of wisdom when we were having a tough time filling my buddies tag. "Daddy. See a deer, shoot a deer" - Lawrence Smith 2018. Words to live by almost always I think...
  11. I am not super familiar with that side of the unit, but dont put all your eggs in 1 basket. Weather can play a big roll in where the deer are. Scout there as well as plan B, plan C, plan D, etc.

    Towing Behind a 5th wheel laws?

    If you are going to do a trailer, and want to take a ranger, I would really consider just doing a toyhauler. That keeps you to 1 trailer which would be easier to tow and maneuver.

    Towing Behind a 5th wheel laws?

    Each state has different laws so research the states you plan to travel to. The first trailer has to be 5th wheel or gooseneck. Dont try and back up 2 trailers.

    Browning A-bolt SS left hand 7mm

    I am looking for an LH, but 7mm Mag is to big for my son to start on. Should sell fast though.

    Show Low/ Pinetop restaurants..

    If you end up in Springerville make sure to hit up Avery's BBQ. The owners are friends and make some darn fine BBQ.

    Unit 10 early rifle bull

    Sorry for your loss. That's not the best way to get a tag. I dont know alot about 10, but others do. I know you probably need to pay the fees to have access to the Big Bo ranch though.
  24. Nope, I am willing to bet I am more straight edge then most. I dont really believe in ghosts or weird crap like that, but i have had/seen a couple funky things happen on that Mesa.
