I guess the state/county decide they need to tax cheap boats now. Didn't used to cost anything to keep a $500 boat, other than the state parks sticker. They appraised my 20' jon boat from 1996 for $3,500. I paid under $500 for it!!! Ridiculous IMO. I'll try and talk them down next year.

Waiting at Line X for the bed to get sprayed. Getting the premium UV coat protection. Also met another High Country owner that had just got his sprayed. He's got a HC with 22's and the 6.2. Didn't seem too thrilled when I asked if he wanted to trade [emoji23]

OK Governut said she hioes gas low prices are temporary so tax revenue will increase. She and the republican state congress promised to repeal the state income tax 5 years ago. Still waiting(it keeps getting out on back burner)

I didn't go to collage so bare with me, don't the taxes stay the same on gas? So if the prices on crude go down gas is cheaper, so people drive more, buy more gas pay more gas tax by volume, right?

The wife has the flu so I got her car and finally able to get some stuff done like the recall on the 2013 Malibu and getting the windshield replaced and removing about 12 half empty water bottles (literally) and a empty Arby's cup. We always take my truck everywhere so I never look at the car much less drive it.

    • I don't wanna do major surgery/upgrades, behind-the-dash work, add amps, change radio etc. on my '26 std cab WT. On the WT, it has the base 7" IOR infotainment setup, and only two speakers (doors). Since I listen to classical, looked around for speakers that do well and dug thru reviews. Two-way speakers were found to be better than 3-way. So I've ordered a pair of  Infinity Reference REF-9632IX 2 way speakers.  [These may  or may not have been discontinued / succeeded by the 3-way ...9633 ones.]    These speakers are lauded for 3 ohm and 94db sensitivity spec so they'll work well for ordinary base car radios without amps and offer better performance (quality,  strength) than  default base paper-cone speakers. They'll be installed in a few days and I'll let y'all know what I think. Bill W San Jose      
    • Thanks!   Changed out the rear shocks today to Bilstein 5100s.  So far feel much better. The stock Rancho were wore out.  Lots of heavy hauling (2 moves, home renovations, etc).  Next up is new BFG tires Monday.  Cant wait the current tires have little to no wet traction and are super loud (hum)    
    • Ok, I got the all the codes. What do you all think would be a place to start?
    • How about I just point to the factory pans stand pipe little drain plug and claim its a pan with a real drain plug !. I just couldn't swallow the fact that a Dorman pan which at this point is probably the only pan out there that fits the gas version truck cost that much up here in Canada so I decided initially anyway to skip it and see what I thought of pulling the pan method and down the road if I felt inclined enough then I would either install a drain plug kit in the factory pan if there is enough room for it, or have a bung welded onto it, or put an aftermarket pan on. The thing is if the pan is not pulled then the magnets in the pan can't be inspected and cleaned or if wanting to change out the filter. However of course it certainly would make the job easier to be able to drop the oil first before having to handle the pan if dropping the pan that go around was the goal.    I knew a guy locally that was doing custom field spraying years ago with a pickup pulling a ground driven sprayer, I believe it was a GM pickup with an automatic trans. He had a drain plug in his pan and would drop the oil out of it once a week and top it back up through the dipstick tube to keep refreshing a portion of the oil often and that made the transmission last far longer than had he done nothing. Soft fields pulling 500 gallons of water at the start of each mixed up sprayer tank batch and in low range sucking along. I imagine he got some tips from other custom sprayer outfits doing the same thing at the time and learning from their blown up tranny mistakes. Transmissions then had no lock up converter so would cook the crap out of the fluid slipping that much and it would not have been synthetic fluid either.
