Good morning.
Supposed to be 100° today.....
That is all.

I've been thinking about restoring a '72 2 door Chevelle and modernizing it a bit. For what the new shiz costs it's looking a lot more cost friendly, especially when one factors in that a home mechanic should still be able to work on it for a bunch more years.G'morn, what you shared about that late model pickup reminds me of what I heard about a Buick suv. Stop at a light, engine dies, take foot from brake touch gas engine starts. Don't wanna find out what a starter costs for it ! Think about stop n go city driving for cycling the process
Broncos w/turbo 3 cylinder have trouble getting out of their own way from my experience. Rather spend same money on a 1967 with interesting power, for more fun
@Sawdust Man just 100. Down south that may be underachieving lol . If we get rain or not hope your area gets some cooler, have good cloud cover locally
Dad’s new buggy has that option, it’s bizarre driving it, fortunately you can turn that option off.G'morn, what you shared about that late model pickup reminds me of what I heard about a Buick suv.

A lot of the imposed speed limiters were initially added as manufactures were putting on tires that weren't rated for anything more. To many blowouts at higher speed. Now there are several ways to change that mfr imposed speed limiter.On a different with all those “safety features “ it will haul azz, near as I can tell there is no shutdown limit switch on driving speed. It hit 121 mph & could of gone for more, or so I was told
Mothers pickup shuts down at 105-108
My wife’s buggy shuts down at 95
They are all Fords.
Ornery weather.Wind took out a few limbs around the area, this maple lost its battle at my folks place. I will get a splits of camp fire wood out of it.
Just waiting on the skid steer to clean up before start hacking up what I want.

We had a Ponderosa get topped at the local township cemetery so I will be headed that way either this evening or tomorrow morning to clean up the small debris & start logging or piecing it up. It will make some nice stove wood.

Somebody in town has a couple year-old male beagles they're trying to give away.You need a pack of hounds
It's true.....food prices are insane these days.Yet, there may come a time the potential of racoon tasting like pulled pork may make y'al curious enough
My current beagle is not a chicken fan, he killed my buddy’s wife’s favorite rooster & had a chicken cornered until I put a boot in his arse. I haven’t had anymore problems since.Somebody in town has a couple year-old male beagles they're trying to give away.
I thought about it, but not sure they are a good idea with ducks and chickens on the place.
Squirrel is called "tree rat" after all. In my youth had a pellet gun that'd drop squirrels at a fare distance. When there was a mess in freezer mashed taters n gravy, fried squirrels and the other sidesIt's true.....food prices are insane these days.
