Heck no, I enjoy listening to the excitement you have about a new chapter in your life. As long as it makes you feel good, its good enough.
Congrats to you and your wife:thumb:
:usa:

I agree.

 

I didn’t realize Mike was that old. Anybody know what he died from?

I know years ago he had liver issues, I don't know if he died from complications of that or something else.

 

It's Officially mine now!

Awesome, about time!

 

When did popcorn farts backfiring in the can of your shitbox car become the ultimate of "high performance" ??

2001 - That's when Fast and the Furious came out...

 

The guys that build performance Japanese engines hate those more than anyone...

Nah, I was in high school in the late 90s, they had that shit then too. :sonicjay:

 

Picked this up today, 36v with good batteries (matched set Crown) and charger. Has a new motor and rear wheel bearings.
Sense board is bad on the charger, but it charges the batteries if I jump it out. Board is about $50.

Everything on the cart works, I drove it up on the trailer. Took it for a short ride in the woods, didn't get stuck. I need to see if I can increase the speed in reverse, it creeps backing up.

Oh, and it only cost me $250

Haven't you learned by now? It's not the size or the speed you get her, that wife of yours is still going to crash it.

 

Are 1968 Mercury Cougar parts easy to find?

Most parts are the same as Mustang so yes. Body parts, not sure.

 

I dig the old cougar eliminators.

 

After putting a scope on the 12 gauge DeerSlayer and sighting in, ten rounds of 1oz slugs, I got a 450 BushMaster upper. I got that sighted in and that is much more better. Like shooting a 45/70 with a pillow on your shoulder.

Went to go out, Truck dead. One battery has a dead cell, which naturally draws the other battery down. FML!

That blows.

While on topic of wives crashing cars, my wife had someone pull out in front of her the Thursday before Labor Day. The truck went to the bump shop from the accident. I called earlier this week for a timing update and apparently the frame was bent enough that they have decided to frame swap her truck. Still 2-3 weeks out.

 

That blows.

What really blows is the good battery has two cells significantly lower hydro. I know what that means.
It’s holding 12.9v but won’t when the temps drop.
I get to R&R two group 27 batteries.
My last truck I got twelve years out of lead acid batteries by doing annual PM. My luck hasn’t been as good with the wonder AGM battery’s.
The two batteries has to come out of money budgeted for reloading stuff for the 450.

This is all work, I want to play. That’s frustrating. Life is too short, and so is hunting season.

 

Billion dollar lottery. Anybody think they have a chance of winning? 1 in a trillion chances of winning. You'd have a better chance of getting bitten by a shark.....on land:sonicjay:

Time to dump it and get a new dually. :d:
