Ron, would I be warm if I said 'near Pemberton'?

I recall reading about the windshield being flat was a problem. More likely to break due to no curvature--rocks could not glance off like a curved one.

I vaguely remember a member either arranging to, or telling us about the plan to bury an Iron Forge site in deep south jersey. The reason was to save it from pot hunters. I thought it was an odd thing to do at the time.

Yes, that is correct. But one feed strip? The major reason I posted this is too see what it was made for.

Where is this?

That's Terry's stream. To drive down that stream is a moronic thing to do. No sense at all. Those people doing that are ignorant and care nothing about the environment.

But Guy, to be fair, most vehicles were like that in 1973. It was common to be stuck on the side of the road, like an alternator or over-heating problem. With that said, I'm not sure how the 2007 - 20014 (?) FJ cruisers fared as to reliability, but most for sale have over 120K miles and they...

Good eye, I didn't see that. There was one I looked at up by Belmar, and it had a bubble at the top of the windshield, dead center, right next to the windshield trim. About 3/4" round. I told the seller (used car dealer) it probably was a rock that glanced off there. He said no, it's just the...

Well then, there you go. Thanks.

Here's an oldie. Does anyone know what those hook-like metal bands are on the wheel?

Old, heavy beams right next to the bank would be a clue I think. Look to see if anything is jutting out from the bank or if there is a platform actually under water. Go to Dover Forge, and you'll see what I mean. Now, clearly that's only a clue. Dover Forge also had a bridge there, so maybe I'm...

I used to play frisbee in that hanger when I worked there. Dead calm makes for a great spin.

Bingo Ron! I usually don't drive off-road, unless I'm crossing an open area like that one near Spring Hill. So, the only thing that really scares me is those long, muddy-looking puddles that are likely to have clay in the bottom along with deep ruts. If you get stuck in one of those ruts and...

No, that's not it. Want me to tell you, or do you have another guess.

Correct Ron.

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.

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...

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...
