Re: What work did you do on your SMB today?

After seeing Greg in Austin's Linexed hoop step on McBeast, I took my pathetic step with it's sad peeling black paint over to the Rhino guy and he sprayed it for $15. Now it's sexy black once again!

Re: 2000 4x4 Ford Van Build

Geez, I'm so impressed!
Looking at the trees in the background, it seems like you've done all of this in one season: winter. Is that possible?

Re: Trim maintenance products

Where do you get them? I'm contemplating pulling the billet grille for a paint job. It's really grey. The stuff I've bought a Walmart has been pretty useless.

Re: 2006 e350 rb diesel 4400 miles

Fresno sold us the last '07 they had that would take both fuels. I knew I was going to be going into Mexico from the Rio Grande Valley often, so it got me off the fence regarding the purchase.

Re: Wanted - Free/Trade 4 Bumpers

Texan, radical AND an omnivore!
In fact, I'm headed for Cooper's in Llano this weekend for an episode of Big Meat. Also to Sportsmobile, Austin, where all my money lives.
Good luck on your bumper...

Re: Wanted - Free/Trade 4 Bumpers

Hey, PP!
as a Texan and ultra-liberal SMBer (though radical would be more accurate), even with decidedly pinched pockets, I'm contemplating the Aluminess sale. Come the revolution, I'd be ready.

Re: No Starcool, other options

Every time Ford has it's hands on the van, I ask them to be SURE the doghouse is seated correctly. It always gets hot, which I sort of expect, but I also feel heat hitting my knees (no, the dragon is...

I'm planning to drive 7 hours to Austin in mid-February over this issue. My dash AC just wasn't enough for last summer's heat even with the Starcool going. The van is from Fresno, so I think that the...

Re: Forum Rally 09 May 11-15th in Moab

Having it in Moab instead of Glacier makes it possible for me but all depends on my mom's health and I can't be sure about that until maybe a month prior.
It would be great, though.

I can completely sympathize with needing vast seating possibilities when driving teens and their friends around. They're all so big and their gear is voluminous. ...
