    The weather is a bit ordinary today so I am taking my big ute for a drive.

    I managed to get a lot of trail work done with the 310J today. Things are finally dry enough to go just about anywhere. Stumps pulled. Low spots filled in. Three culverts installed. I must have put 7-8 hours on it. Time to get more diesel fuel in the morning and get back at it if it hasn’t rained yet. A crapshoot for thunderstorms tomorrow so I guess I’ll just get at it early and quit when they start. Trails are coming along nicely now. All the work is starting to pay off. :)

    The Aveo... wasn't that the replacement for the Geo Metro?

    I have a Kia Rio for my daily driver, stick shift, manual windows and door locks, no frills whatsoever. Gets 39-41 mpg (readout is always higher and wrong) and drive it 144 miles a day roundtrip. It's not what I typically like in cars but it saves me money for the cars I do like.

    I pulled the hubcaps off because it's easier to rotate the tires without them in the way. I do it every oil change (5000 miles) which happens frequently.

    I did add a catch can (oil separator) since it's GDI and there's no way to clean the intake valves through the fuel system. I hope it lasts awhile.

    How's the Land Cruiser treating you? Great vehicles.

    The Land Cruiser is great but today I took my Nissan Patrol, we wanted to make sure the bike rack would fit it as it has a custom service body on the back.

    And it turns out that it fits very well.

    Morning hoarders. I almost forgot. A couple hours of OT this morning. Then back to work on the trails. If it’s not raining yet. You folks have a great day!

    Holy cow! You are on the wrong side of the road mate!


    btw, I got my bike out. Not cleaned up yet but plan on seeing if I can possibly ride again.

    I got a scare this morning. Google Chrome wasn't liking FHC and was blocking the site. I was going through shock and withdrawal. Don't know what was going on.

    I had the same issue earlier this morning. It was strange to see. Figured it was either a glitch or we’d been hacked. Good to see we are back to normal.
