LOL...blush. After rebuilding the new spare tire carrier..and properly
welding it using something other than a HF Mig..so far its held up
nicely for about 80,000 miles.


OhmyBuddha! You've put 80k miles on since posting that a year or two
ago, Gunner? Amazing.

P.S: Congrats on your newly-found non-lethal welding skills.


I average about 65,000 miles a year. This year was a bit more.

The old girl now has 384,000 miles on it.

"Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire.
Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us)
off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give
them self determination under "play nice" rules.

Think of it as having your older brother knock the **** out of you
for torturing the cat." Gunner
