Saturday me and a friend went out to Iron Gap Rd. It's a trail down near the Alabama/ Tennessee border. Was a lot of rocks and mud with some real challenging line options. Really enjoyed the day exploring.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.

"220, 221, whatever it takes."
Removed the spare tire in preparation for its annual touch-up at Zeibart tomorrow.
It's a northern thing. They don't call us the Rust Belt only because the steel mills closed.
Scrubbed the tire with Bleche-White and checked the air while it's out.
Ford puts the spares in with the valve stem facing up but I flip them over so I can check the air without removing the spare, which is a pain in the ass.

Picked up the truck after the Ziebart touch-up, it has new truck smell, kind of.

I attributed the stank to all the ham and beans you eat. Lol

Looks good...
Tease him all you want. But I assure you that when he leaves the house, the little lady has done her due diligence to make sure he will be well fed.

This is very true. But most likely because I usually have Zane with me. We will see if she does as much for me on my solo trip haha

Does she ever refer to you as “her oldest child”?

Those Instant Connectors are great for water or pneumatic.

Yes sir. I'm actually building a 4 tire inflation setup with some 1/4" slip in connectors. Parts should be here tomorrow.
