“I’m sorry for what I said while I was backing up the boat”

One of the duties I had in my job at the local army post right out of high school was trash collection. My personal worst part was going into the back of the truck wearing a raincoat and wielding a steam cleaner to grub the maggots out the various tracks and cracks in the back of the trucks. That job put me off of…

I did not know about the 80% part. Makes the case for EV 80% less compelling. 

275 miles range under perfect conditions still doesn’t get us to Detroilet on one charge. ND. 

for what it is, an old school hot rod, it’s perfect. It projects just the right of menace and agressive stance. You’d have a hard time duplicating this for the $25 K and there’s even a bit left for you to put your own stamp on. NP.

I made the “dance of death” commute from Wasilla to Anchortown for decades and the goal was always to find something affordable to drive and AWD or 4WD. A couple of my fellow travlers drove Justys as they were small and AWD. I took one for a test drive that made it about 2 blocks before I turned around as that car was…

I wouldn’t call it Barney, sorry. I would give it a home. It was parked before the two legged critters got to it and the interior looks like somewhere humans would sit without going “eww” and you won’t be hunting down oddball parts just to get it running. I’m NP on this happy little camper. 

Viggen out. ND for the Opel.

GMRS. The license is $30 if you actually bother to get one, but up to 50 watts FM. Better range (unless you are shooting skip of course). 

It’s great for carrying boards. I do it in the wifes Bronco Sport. I don’t tell her that though.

My wife wanted to know why there was a painting of Bob Marley on the tail. I told her that’s supposed to be an eskimo and then I looked again and now I also wonder why Bob Marley is on the tail.

one the passengers asked him for a diet Coke. That sets off the flight crews on Ak Airlines planes, according to my daughter the cabin attendant

I’d say 17 large is the finished price, not the price as presented. Finish it, paint it, get it tuned up nicely and you’ll have a Falcon with a nice bark , not this ropey chicken. 

now we know why EV’s are shaped like suppositories. 

I’m glad I ordered my Bronco when I did, base price was $29500 and I added a few options, under $35 and out the door, my dealer didn’t do the markup. Can’t order a base now. 

at least Jeep doesn’t charge extra for a passenger seat and sun visor like they did in the past.

This was absolutely THE car to have in AK when it was new and gas was heading up towards $1 a gallon from the 70 cents a gallon it had cost for years. These little bastards will go through the snow like a husky and aren’t much bigger than a dogsled themselves. It’s pretty much the car that established the brand in the…

Completely irrational and impulsive NP.

winners do get a cool job at Bronco Nation. That winner should bring the buggy to the next meet up. Cheers and good luck!

I’m clear on all of it, thank you very much. I have worked on ham radio amplifers capable of over 2000 watts, with 3500-4000 volts on the plate and a couple amps of current to back it up, and Oce copiers that use a flashbulb for exposure, driven by a capacitor that holds enough electricity to kill you and make it hurt…
