So last week I ditched my cappy uverse for cable internet. I live about a mile outside city limits and the fastest speed that ATT provided was 3mbs. I can not get Charter but can get Northland cable in my area. So I elect for the 18mbs service from Northland. The fastest they offered was 24mbs. Yesterday I witnessed speeds only in the 3mbs area. This morning it was around 5. So I decide to call and see what's up. As I am on hold my internet speed shoots up to 19.44 mbs. This is going to be a long and bumpy relationship!
 
Northland Sucks. I've had nothing but trouble since I have had them, but I refuse to use ATT and only other option is satellite Internet which is :censor: expensive. GOOD LUCK:(
 
Saw this on Pinterest. Pretty neat idea for those of us that sleep in the back of our rigs and don't want to share a bed with a kid!

WOW!! nice, I might not be able to hang with you guys anymore. I guess you and @CharlestonG8R are trying to look the same...only yours is bigger !!
 
TSL Boggers are more aggressive than SSR's! Man, those are huge! I don't think you'll get stuck at Black Balsam this year. :flipoff2:

The Chik'n is a cool project. I predict that David will want to wheel it once it's running right.

Lol, wasn't worried about Black Balsam! I'm anxious to get them on to see how much I need to trim my front fenders up. They are only 8 pounds heavier per tire than the Duratracs I'm running now. Also, one of my coworkers has a car trailer that he only uses 2 or 3 times a year for his tractor, so he said I can borrow it whenever I need it. I plan to trailer to GSMTR and Logan's Run, but will drive it to OTMT, Gulches, Black Balsam, etc.

Are you sure you need to cut your fenders? I guess you don't want to go higher with a body lift, eh? So when are you going to hit Gulches and do some flexing?

I don't know for sure about the cutting. I'm thinking I may not need to since these are actually narrower than what I'm running now and I have tons of clearance as is. But, I'm not opposed to it, if I need to. Body lift is a "never happening" thing for me. I also don't really want to add spacers or anything up front, since I'm really happy with my suspension right now.

Not sure when I will get to Gulches. I have a big ditch in front of my house that I can flex it out in to see if I contact anywhere.
 
I was running 33/10.50's on my 62 with no lift and no rubbing. Lifted it 5" and went to 35/12.50's and they rub...alot.
Just saying.

And the chick's isn't getting cut. I have the 62 for wheeling, I'll just have to cut it like Johnny's to run bigger tires.
Looking for tall skinnies.
I have Scott's 33/12.50's to put on to start, but with no pwr. steering, they may be too wide.
 
Last Thursday and Friday this was valet parked in the lot that i park in off River St. downtown across from Innovate building and construction of Embassy Suites.....Fantastic new paint job, excellent condition. Dealer tag with Ralph Hayes Toyota plate holder and i spotted a TL Hanna Athletic recognition award on back seat and last name was Hayes so i'm figuring a family member of the dealership owner. Put my business card and Upstate Cruiser card on the windshield.

Nice looking rigs, both of them! Jeff, you're like the UC evangelist.

Seeing your sunshade reminded me of this, I've ordered these for 3 different vehicles and they're excellent:
UVS100 Custom Sunscreen - Covercraft

Random thought: maybe for an upcoming UC event, we could get a block of seats at a Greenville Drive game.

Thanks Daniel....Great idea.....will look at schedule and propose date(s) at our gathering Thursday for an evening game.
I'm trying to stir up interest in UC! I also saw this 80 parked behind the strip center next to the closed Rio Bravo on Haywood. Belongs to Jeff who runs the Greenville Running Co. store. He just had it painted at Maaco and was a pretty good job...gave him Marshall's card

and invited him to our gathering at Quaker Steak & Lube.
