I am not addicted but before I make almost any purchase, I check both e-bay and amazon. At least half the time one of these has a decent deal. A-Jay

Very sorry to hear about your Grandfather's passing. I've always believed that Grandparents are so special. They help us learn who we are and where we came from. You have some great memories to keep close. I hope your Grandfather's spirit can help you and your family though this time. A-Jay

And since you are clearly very familar with this crowd you must be the dude in the head dress right ? A-Jay

I have a favorite Texas Rig worm set up - the bait is a 10" Black Power worm with a black Tungsten weight - It's "The Johnny Cash" Oh, and there are more, several more. A-Jay

That is Very Cool ! Yes - that's me - I don't water ski often, but when I do, I use puppy power. A-Jay

After the last thread on this, I did a little research of my own. Since then I also have been doing the alcohol and jeans deal and it works. I been using the same Fusion blade for a couple of months. I don't store the blade in the alcohol, instead I rinse it off in the alcohol and let it air dry. (I keep a small covered container of alcohol in the head) And then before each use I buff it up on ther jeans. It's not magic - but it does work well. A blade will last you Waaaaaaaaaaaaay longer.

Three Alaskan Malamutes (Diesel, Tucker & Fenway) and the newest member of the pack , Roxi - an 8 month old Dutch Shepard we rescued just last week. And she's a handful ! A-Jay

There is no reason for you to drive 5 hours to fix this. Tell them you bought this vehicle in part based on the customer service, unfortunately it's early on but now you have to use it. If your dealership Really wants to make this right, ask them to do this ~ Have them call your Local Toyota dealership and explain the situation to the local guys. Let them workout who's going to pay for what. Take the truck in so they can make it right. The only way I'd drive that far is to hand them the keys and get my money back. Good Luck A-Jay Good Luck

You have discriminating taste Sir - I'll be sure to restock the bar upon my return. A-Jay

Good Luck man - whack'em good ! A-Jay

You're still making it happen Dwight. Looks like good times were had by all. Very stout smallies right there ~ as usual. The weather looked fairly cooperative, at least in the photos. While playing poker, do you guys bet using jerkbaits ? I can see it now - "OK, I'll see your 3 deep husky jerks and raise you - 2 pointer 100's And a Smithwick ! " A-Jay
