So I told both boys they better be here Sunday. They like each other, whether they like me or not, so they’ll be here, and the oldest will bring my granddaughter. You see this sleeping, beautiful child? She is the rip snortin’est, high-drama, wildcat when awake that you can possibly imagine.

I’m 30 minutes from where the Carolina Hurricanes just won the Stanley Cup, and I have no idea if any of the players “are from around here."

I bought mine in June and it had just shown up on the lot.

My ‘25 is showing 0 unrepaired recalls.

Nah, just a well paid bean counter working for a tech company.

Thanks. Sorry for the thread stomp. Adult beverages were involved.

To me, there is no “worst” Fathers day gift. If my kids remember me, it’s a good Father’s Day. How about, “What’s the BEST Father’s Day gift you ever got" Both my boys playing a new Taylor I bought at Father’s Day last year.

I like those wheels. Classic. Stock wheels on my father-in-law’s '92 B2200. A whopping 78 horsepower. I did all kinds of truck stuff with that little truck.

Headliners in the hard top were the very first mod. Big improvement. Especially with the black hard top. Both JT’s were bought in summer. Then front mud flaps, rock rail steps, shocks, longer lower control arms, and a bed cover.

I have gotten some mileage out of all her “NO’s”. I got a quote on a whole house generator about six years ago. They are kinda spendy, you know, like a Jeep. 😃 Anyway, she put the kibosh on that, even after spending ten days in 90 degrees, nine months pregnant after Hurricane Fran rolled...

I tried for about ten years to convince my wife to let me buy and split some acreage with two friends and set up a second home/bug out location/cabin in the woods. The first time we discussed it she said, “You can go anytime you want, but you’ll be by yourself, or in a pine box." The next time...

I had some friends out in the country use those. I had a large yard and a walkout basement at my last house. I had a rack system in the basement with 55 gallon food grade barrels, but once the wife and I downsized houses seven years ago about the most room I have is for a half dozen 7 gallon...

I’m in central NC.

As much as I can. That said, we’re getting some rain recently, finally. Burn bans are still in place, but I’ve had a recent look at a couple of the local lakes/reservoirs, as well as the primary river (Cape Fear) that supplies much of this area, and it’s not as bad as I was thinking it would be...

I’m angling for a set of Michelin Defenders at some point. I’ve run them on two other 4x4 trucks and they did what I needed. I’ll probably drive the tread off the Wild Peaks first.

I searched "water bobs” for my full sized truck a few years ago, and it seems in the reviews many of them failed. Now I have a JT and want to find something that would best fit the bed and has a good survival rate. My brother-in-law uses one for the bed of his Ram 3500 truck to store water when...

While Rubitrux advertises they’ll do a 6.4 swap for $40k and a 5.7 for $35k, if you look at the 392’s for sale on their lot, whether Wrangler 392s that came from Jeep, or their own JT hemi swaps, they load them up with all manner of added off-road gear driving the listed price up to $120k, plus...

You can probably tell by looking at the oil on the dipstick
