• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    Any experiences you can share about Elka vs Wilber rear shocks?

    No experience with Elka, but I have a Wilbers rear shock on my 2022 RT S2S, and also had them on my past F3S. The quality of Wilbers is impeccable!! material and craftsmanship is first rate. They are totally built to your specs with both specific spring rates and valving. I had the remote...

    Anyone have experience with the 2020+ Bumper/skid plate??? Your thoughts?

    I have the Spyder Extras front bumper/skid plate on my 2022 RT S2S. I put it on the same time I did my BR Ultra sway bar. I also added the H&R springs from MTV. No clearance issues, and minimal (if any) scraping. Quite happy with the set up.

    Did the Bears get some 'extra help' in their defeat of the Packers?

    Yup... It was a cheap shot for sure. Would the 15 yard penalty have any bearing on the game? Maybe/maybe not. A holding call on Walker would have negated the touchdown and added an extra 10 yards. Oh well... Two games left, with Da Bears facing 49'ers and Lions, and GB facing Ravens/Vikings...

    FedEx is the worst!!!

    My daughter has a small brick/mortar boutique business. Due to lack of storage at her store, she has her stock delivered to her house and stores it in a garage bay. FedEx is a delivery service of one of her venders. The dumb ass delivery driver must have forgotten that a vast number of people...

    Lame USPS - sending my items on a nice long road trip!

    My latest USPS debacle. I ordered some frame guards for my Husqvarna 401 last week from a company in PA. After two days of "processing", they mailed them out via 3 day USPS priority mail. They went from Waynesburg, PA > Warrendale, PA > Charlotte, NC > Gastonia, NC > Olathe, KS. They have been...
