    So you can hate me now...

    This is the time of year we start mixing it up....desert for Labor Day, then back to the river the following weekend. With the temperatures as high as they are now we are booked through October for the river. Then the desert takes over full time simply because I feel the need for speed! ;)

    Tire Pressure

    For what it's worth, I routinely drive through hot territory...from Death Valley to Needles it can easily be 120 where I'm driving. I don't deviate from my normal tire filling procedures. I just changed the rubber on my tow vehicle and it was around 100,000 miles on that set of tires. Probably...

    Cobalt's Website - Sterndrive vs. Jetboat

    cough, cough BULLSHIT, cough, cough That they felt the need to produce such a video indicates the bite out of stern drive sales the jet drives have taken. I'd like to see a completely unbiased review - but I won't hold my breath.

    Some of you may have read a post or two about a problem I had with my boat (ever since I bought it) - the elusive "Loose Nut Behind the Wheel". :eek: Well, it seems that I'm not the only one...and this time it could have been disastrous! An Air Force reconnaissance airplane caught fire in...

    DJI Phantom Drone Advice

    @Ronnie said: "However, the lily's ship date is even sketchier than the air dog. FYI - all I've received from them so far is a receipt, pics of their new San Francisco office and several employee profiles. No changes forward or backward on their tentative Feb. 2016 ship date." Oh my, that HAS...

    DJI Phantom Drone Advice

    I've had the Phantom 2 vision for a while now and I've gotten some great shots with it, but sometimes it's hard to choose between chasing the kids with the copter or on my dirt bike. I will probably end up getting one of those follow-me drones like the Iris+ , AirDog or Lily. That way we can all...

    This was forwarded to me , anyone ever hear of this?

    That's a first for me, too, Jeff. I seem to remember that one time a didn't add back quite enough oil after a change and didn't catch it right away. I never had a loss of speed as a result though. :confused:

    Review of the all New 2016 Yamaha 242X E-Series Wake Sports jet boat

    Well, since the lottery balls didn't fall in my favor last night I'm stuck with my old barge....but I did get the email from Boattest.com this morning and I was looking over the specs on the new flagship. And I mean SHIP - that sucker is heavy - now I don't know what the previous 24' boats...

    Pro's and Con's - Need some assistance

    When My wife and I were boat shopping we made sure to keep our kids factored into the equation and from your post I sense you are too. There must be an underlying reason your wife is leaning toward the pontoon. And if it were me, I'd be sure to sniff around that tree before setting my sights on...
