While in Rite Aid picking up some cold medicine for my girlfriends toddler this caught my eye. He now has a new favorite toy lol. Pretty good detail for 1:43 scale.

Nothing new really. Mileage is now at 288k (and overdue for an oil change..) and still running strong. Took it out in the snow and played around.. and pulled some people out of the ditches.

Since my last post Ive had to replace a CV axle because something in the front was making a rotational clicking noise. Turns out it wasnt the axle. The problem is still undiagnosed. Also replaced the pinion seal.. due to sitting for about 6 hours it would leak a puddle the size of a football.

I also picked up a set of Dunlop Maxxtractions for when my Duratracs need replacing. Got them for $40.. just had to drive an hour and a half to get them. Not bad.

Then these Texas 20s popped up on craigslist for 750.. so now im trying to sell my 17s and two sets of tires to pay for the 20s.

We'll see what happens.. I think they would look killer on an OBS Z71 Hoe.

And my Hoe's mini-me.

Changed the oil and replaced the tail light circuit board. I detailed the interior yesterday, shampooed the front carpets today, and cleaned the engine bay.

Thanks.

Took the afternoon to wash, clay bar, and wax.
