What's up today (bullchiting) thread.

Look for Kumho tires - love my Venture AT51's. They are highly rated and much less $$ than most of the other high rated brand/models (Firestone, Goodyear etc) Check out this rating chart by Tirerack.com. Hey, and it looks like right now they are doing rebates too. I paid a total of $642 and then got an $80 rebate when I put them on my Explorer last year.

 

Just a bit of background - I had previously had Firestone Destinations on the Explorer - the Kumho's are better in every way - better ride, less noise, better wet and snow grip and even dry traction on roads (don't do off-road so can't say anything about that). I was so impressed I put Kumho's on my car this spring (not the same model of course )

 

It would've been OK.....using the at51 for the car.....maybe!




I think you'd get away with it around here!

 

LinkedXJ These three have really good advice. Take Canadian border VT up on his offer. Find a professional health person quick. Take your wife with you for any counselling sessions. She needs to know how you feel. Her support will help.

 

I am up early. Bread buns rising this morning. Looks to be another gorgeous day. And it is FRIDAY!! Overall it has been a good week, just really busy.

 

LinkedXJ, bocefus78 is pretty much on target, imho. There is wisdom in his words. Some of us are dealt better hands than others. I think you've got a lot going for you, even though it may be not easy to see. The main thing is that you do have a family and many friends here to lean on. All the best to you, and please seek out some appropriate care. It can make a world of difference. Hang in there, buddy.

 

X3 I have to agree with everything you said here.

 

Mowed my yard for the first time in a month. I has been DRY here lately. Looked like a dust storm.

I have 0 plans for the weekend. First time in I can't remember how long that I can do whatever I want.

 

Put my name (and my wife's) on a big chunk of Maine woods today.

 

Congrats! How big?

 

I've ridden a few Sinclair dinosaur's in my day. If the one in Green River is the one you're talking about, I've tamed that bucking bronco.

 

I've been running kumho tires for a number of years on a variety of vehicles. I've got a set on my Audi now, and I love them.

Also check out Falken wild peak AT's, or their new at3 tires. I've got the wild peak AT's on the 4runner. They are probably the best AT tires I've ever had on any 4wd truck or SUV. They wear great, grip everywhere, rain, snow, even mud, and they are quiet on the freeway.

They are also not expensive.

 

You are lucky. My lawn never quit growing this summer. It rained a ton this summer.

 

Oh, I got lost.



Lol, no this was a road trip between Wisconsin and Oregon. Once or twice. The last time was the summer of 08. Rawlins is in the middle of nowhere, and right off of a major interstate freeway.

When you need food, and probably gas ( not that kind) you stop where you can. We got lucky as that restaurant made some of the best Mexican food I've had. The chili rellenos were amazing.

 

Once you go pro you never go....
Nothing I can think of is appropriate.
Point is, see a counselor.
A reality is, from my experience with my family after an unpleasant episode, they facilitate and you'll do the figuring out. It was an incredible help for us.
I, and I'm sure the rest of us, are concerned and want you to feel better.
We here have our fwh delema's and can help with that.
Take advantage of those who train to help otherwise.

 

Sounds great. And I'll bet you had a great time and chili rellenos

 

Yeah, the last thing your wife wants when she's on a road trip with you is .
