My next bed is a sleep number with a foam topper. Enough of the s***ty springs and I am way too warm blooded for a full foam mattress (they hold in heat like a mofo).

I heard that memory foam mattresses hold in heat also but I've never had a problem and I hate being hot while sleeping. So basically I'm saying you are full of it...
Go sleep number with the pillow top, not the foam. I got one for Christmas (or I got my wife one for Christmas) and it is magic.
Bite the bullet and go with a waterbed. I can sleep for days on that thing
Original Mattres Co. in Charlotte. I've tried lots (except memory foam--the heat retention stories scared me off) and they are the best I've ever slept on.
So I found an Fj45 in a mans back yard the other day, its in pretty rough shape and I have no idea what shape the mechanics are in on it, but he said he has the title for it and will take $500 for it. Hmmm decisions decisions!
Depending on the shape of the frame, that and the title are worth well over 500. Details?
The frame has a good bit of surface rust but nothing bad at all. A day with a wire brush and some paint would clean it up. The cab area is the worst part, there are a few holes that go through on the sides of the top and quite a few below where the top mounts to the cab. The fenders and front look to be in ok shape.
As far as the engine and drive line go he has no idea whats going on with it. He restores really old jeeps and got this as part of a bundle with 5 or so jeeps. He said hes never had any desire to work on it because he's always so busy with his clients jeeps. He really just wants it off his property so he can get to the line of jeeps and tractor trailers full of jeep parts behind it.
As for address I don't know that he actually has one. He lives in the middle of the woods outside Quinby. You have to take an un-named dirt road to find his house and he didnt even have a mail box.
If I pick it up and decide its way more than I can handle I'll offer it up to anyone who wishes to restore it and get it back on the road. And if I don't get it I'd also be willing to find that person who wants it and take them out there to his place to get it all worked out.

Put me in line if you decide to pass!

Looks like I have a new camping buddy. Picked him up last night. We named him Blue Ridge Shepherd. He's 12 weeks old.
i got a pretty high end sealy that i used for about 10 years.
I loved that bed. Was still very firm even 10 years after purchase. I also kept her rotated/fliped as directed.
I would still have it but when we moved from 5 forks to downtown simpleville i didn't have the extra room for it so i gave it to my sister.
I can't remember what i paid for it but i got it at the mattress outlet and it was a pretty penny.

I love tanks. This is a cool Youtube page. caddydave's Channel - YouTube This foundation builds tanks. Military Vehicle Technology Foundation It was at one point a private collection of Mr. Jacques Littlefield. An amazing man. He died a couple years ago from cancer but They restore the tanks back to eaxactly how they were when they rolled off the line. Exactly. An amazing process. That would be a dream job for me.

I would send a letter to the management advising them of the problem and tell them to clean it up within a week. If they didnt do it Id crank up my leaf blower and blow all the butts into their parking lot. I would also put up a cable across where they walk through with a no trespassing sign. Or maybe you could just attach it to the back of their sign..funny they dont wanttrespassers but they have no problem coming onto your property and trashing it. F'tards
If that didnt work Id start calling the PD and have the dumb asses cited for littering. FYI a cigarette butt is littering. A littering charge in S.C. not only carries a fine but also a mandatory community service. Cant stand jackasses that have no regard for other peoples property!
