Agreed.

 

An suv is basically an enclosed pickup to me, I've been looking at getting a Dodge Dakota, uses the same v6 as the Durango I thnk.

 

Yep the dakota is the platform for the durango.

 

Just like my toyota sequoia shares the same frame and running gear and drive train as the tundra.

 

This is true.

 

Today was the first day the weather was decent and the roads were clean enough, so I took the motorcycle to work. I was on my way home and wouldn't you know it the campground where I get most of my scrounges had some wood out by the road. Being on the bike, I almost just kept going, but I couldn't resist.



Here's the good part, while I was there, the campground guy came by on his tractor with another load. I told him I stop every time I can, and take what I can but often have to leave some behind (no truck). He took my number and said he'd call me whenever he had some to pick up. He said he'd leave it at the campsite and tell me the campsite #, and that I could just go right in and make as many trips as I need

 

Did a double take on your bike... didn't even see the wood tied on, thought it was in the stack... you're a true firewood hoarder...

Is that a dog kennel in the background?

 

Thats a garden. Got to keep those whitetails out!

 

Yep, the garden. Even with a pack of hounds the deer are still a big problem, it's amazing I'll see them in the yard not 10 minutes after the dogs are in.

 

I don't hunt, nothing against it just never got into it and no hunting on the island I live on, big part of the deer problem

 

I'm no hunter either. Not opposed to venison, just can't handle guns after my time in the military. My sons don't have that hangup. One of them got a deer not far from the house. I was happy for him. He didn't waste any of it. Deer are seen about everywhere now that the snow is about all gone. i hate it when they come into our yard and feast on my shrubs.

 

I am a hunter. Nat killed much the last few years. Busy in life and the new little one cuts in my time.

 

I don't own a pickup. I have an 04 Audi allroad with the rare 4.2 liter 40 valve v8. There were very few v8 allroads made in the 2 years they were available.

I saw a Lamborghini gallardo yesterday on my way home. My car is much more rare than that car. Granted while my car is fast. It's not a supercar. Audi made the rs6 avant with either a twin turbo version of my motor, or the 5.2 v10 that's the same motor as the gallardo if you want a supercar wagon, but you can't raise the suspension on those, and you certainly wouldn't go light off roading with those two either like i can.

It's got airbag suspension factory all 4 corners, onboard air compressor that lowers or lifts the car, from 5" of ground clearance, to nearly 9" or clearance on level 4. I tow a 4x8 trailer, mesh floor, gate on the back. I won't ever put much wood in the car, even though its a wagon, and it has the factory rubber trunk liner. I'll put a couple pieces in the back, that's it.

I'll have to take some pics of the allroad after I give it a bath and wax this spring.
