I havent taken ANY pics of it yet. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img]
And that blowing sand/salt would have reaked havok on my camera. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]
Did you wash it good[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] and spray it down with some WD-40 or the likes??
Yup. Also waxed the plastics.
But the electric bed cover on the f250 still wont open all the way. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img]
LOL.

That's not good[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] Sand gets everywhere[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]
I was thinking of getting a top like that[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] But for the price they are[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] You would think they would hand handle sand better[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img] Probably just get a manual one now.
My boss as a manual Roll-N-Lok on his Lightning. Pretty much the same thing. I'd worry it too would get jamed up. I'd stick with the shell you have. Esp. if you get a trailer (err toy hauler...since you already have a TT, IIRC)...better aerodynamics.
You remember correctly[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] I'm thinking of getting a 5th wheel. If I do, don't feel like taking the campershell on and off[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]everytime I want to back up to the trailer. But, I like a covered bed[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Hear lately though, I've been thinking of getting a pull toy hauler. I'm sooooooooo confused[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]

OFC, I was only messing with you. I can understand your frustration. They is case law that prevents officers from sitting in the near vacinity of a bar/local drinking establishments waiting for patrons to leave.

Enjoy your stay up north[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] And bring home enough fish for all of us[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] yeah its all water under the bridge.. One of my friends gota DUI on monday for a 0.088 and the police officer was setting across the street and followed her when she left... They do that crap up here all the time. When my uncle got his.. same thing cop sitting across the road and made up some chit to pull him over. I have the utmost respect for em but it pisses me off on the drinkin chit that they just pull ya over and make up some reason why they did that aint what happend.. since they have a good probability ya been drinkin so since the DUI enforcement is such a big gig round these parts they get away with BS.. heck there is an officer locally that is under investigation for just recycling reports. multiple people getting tried on the exact same report. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] thats like mine i think i have a copy of it around here somewhere i should scan it and send it to you. Its like the best freakin report to hang a guy. and its a bunch of crap. there is some serious pressure on the officers for DUI conviction so i can see why they do it but its still wrong.

That report would be interesting to read. MADD around here is real active. However, the liberals and ACLU really keep a tight watch on how the laws are applied.

geez, sure hope yer wrong about injectors! I'm thinking electrical due to the intermittency of the problem.

Yea, we have the exact type of ******* around here[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img] They definately know how to ruin a car. Thing with those cars are, when you really want to throw the book at them[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] it's really easy[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] There's like 30 laws covering that stuff. From having to small of a wheel, hydralic suspension, to not having your batteries in a vented area. Best hing about it is, it's a hazard and has to be removed from the roadway immediately[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] which ='s tow truck.

I agree with you on it being electrical. If it was the injectors[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] you would think it would do it all the time[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img]

I was gonna make a funny about the border but i better not. never know who could be reading [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-sad.gif[/img] its kinda like tellin the security check people at the airport you have a bomb [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
yep , dem law enforcement folks got absolutely no sense of ha-ha...unless it's something really disgusting, perverted and twisted. Like the time there was a fatal mva, and the one cop is walking around with the victim's decapitated head and holding it by by the hair. bad part was his buddy snapping the picture.

had a friend that was an armored car guy. he musta heard "stick 'em up!" 100 times a day, and then some moron laughing. i can see why the airlines don't see the humor.

my friend was at the US/CAN border and there was an extremely gorgeous border guard. guys were making a$$es of themselves, saying "Search me!!", and ..."I've got drugs!". don't know what happened, but something tells me the latex glove that tickled their small intestine wasn't from border-babe!

okay, enuf digressing here. why are you (dis)gracing us with your presence OFC ? and why didn't ya tell me so i could get ya to mule some atv goodies here for me? [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] OR, i coulda taken ya out for a ride. where are you rich boys headed?
