    RAIN?

    It's hard to believe just how bad radar weather presentation is getting. I don't get it. This is the latest from NWS. It's like they are intentionally making it more vague with each upgrade. NWS Radar (weather.gov)

    I've known about these winches for a long time, but I have one reservation about using them in the pines. Can you guess what my hesitation is? Bush Winch Series II - Get Yourself Out Of Almost Any Situation - YouTube

    I see these box frames, and I wonder how on earth you can clean the inside, especially if there are flakes of rust inside.

    Toyota 4runner

    Regarding that fluid film you mentioned, I've seen some good things about it. When I first encountered this frame issue, I watched a bunch of videos on the subject. Another one that comes in highly recommended and passes the test is this crc cosmoline product. Heavy Duty Corrosion Inhibitor, 10...

    Toyota 4runner

    Thanks for that offer Zach. It's kind of you. I'm putting it in the shop for other reasons, so they can do it for me. Here is the one I purchased yesterday. I got it at a used dealer in Millville. It spent its entire life in Maryland, so aside from the bumper in the back, it's halfway decent for...

    Something like this? I don't recall anyone saying it was a ford. We should look at the post. 48 GMC Truck - Bing

    Toyota 4runner

    Since my Solara and Camry, I've warmed up some to automatics. I do like a manual though. I think I found my 4runner. I'm negotiating now. Frame is pretty good, but he likely had a boat, because the back bumper and the spare tire retraction device are pretty rusty. In fact, the retraction device...

    Toyota 4runner

    No fair, that's a diesel! I've had two Fords; a 92 explorer and a 95(?) F150. The 95 needed a transmission rebuild at $2,200. Although, that repair job may have been a ripoff. I had some trouble with transmission hesitation so took it to a recommended transmission repair place. They called me...

    Toyota 4runner

    In my life, I've had bad experiences with Nissan, Pontiac, and Volkswagon. But my first car was a 69 toyota corona, and while it generally ran good, it developed a problem later in its life. But I had a 91 Camry that I ran to 212K with no problems, a 2005 Solara that I loved but was totaled by...

    Where is this?

    Odd. Maybe somebody threw it there thinking it was a hazard to deer (catch their foot in it).

    Yes, I like that area too Guy. Go back there frequently. The road and stream has some interesting flora. I bet that's a mount for a hand pump?

    RAIN?

    I slept through it all like a baby, but I really don't think it got bad here at all. I never heard any howling.

    That's very interesting Guy! I saw that 1762 date and was surprised. Right now I'm reading volume II of "New Jersey as a Colony, and as a State" (Lee,1902). Very interesting to see how things developed. There were a lot more loyalists than I thought. And William Franklin (Ben's illegitimate...

    Toyota 4runner

    An update on the grand search: Went to see a 2006 V6 with only 82,000 miles on it. A Florida one that a local used car lot bought at an auction. The frame was really good, only light surface rust. The body and interior were immaculate, almost like new. I saw right away the axle boots (inner) on...

    Well, that would have looked junky.

    Good thing you grinned! I thought you were serious, and I didn't know how to answer you.
