Coop Posted January 24, 2020 Report Share Posted January 24, 2020 I bought the Flex Spray and the gravel today. I tried the spray on a scrap and that’s some neat stuff. I don’t know if I would trust it to float my boat across Lake Michigan but, I bet it keeps my pole dry! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seriously didn't think I'd be doing much more work in Walnut because of the high bf price, but I got this from a guy who has a tree trimming company and sold it for about 20% the price my regular mill would charge..

I'm just ribbing, I rented a minivan a while ago. It had more gittyup, got better gas mileage, and had more space for passengers and cargo than most suv's. It drove nice to boot. I just get stuck behind too many minivan drivers that think the left land is where you should be driving 5 mph under the speed limit during rush hour. It's always a minivan..... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naa i rest easy knowing they'd be fuming if they knew the awful gas mileage my car got. I get 20mpg on premium on a good day. My worst 300 mile stretch was 13 mpg. I was driving in to a 30 mph headwind at 83 mph. I had a smile plastered on my face the whole time. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I eased left to let him know someone was behind him but ended up just passing him on the right when I had a chance. Not 1 min later He gets behind a different person going even slower and just tailgated the crap out of them. The reality is people just don't pay attention to their surroundings. It's not a MN thing, I've ran across it in nearly every state I've drive in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post RichardA Posted January 28, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 As a former professional driver, I honestly believe that 70% of the people driving on America's roads, should have their licenses forcibly taken from them. Those people are not aware enough to know how dangerous they are to the others that share the road with them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, the van is actually my wife's. We looked at all the major SUVs before getting a minivan. The other nice thing about minivans, if you aren't going off road, is they ride lower, and don't have a central axle/hump, so kids and elderly people can get into the back easier. Some SUVs ride so high it is a real climb for little kids to even get into them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's to the point that they are basically tall hatchback sedans. Chevy Equinox is 7.6"-7.9" Ford explorer is 7.9"-8.2" Subaru Forester is 8.7". It's so funny because my WRX has 6" of ground clearance and i've had SUV owners talk down to me about how much lower to the ground my car is. I just laughed.
