Rig looks really sharp, James. It's pretty cool that the bug bit you at the last TECORE. Hope you get on the trails more often now!

Smoked 32 lbs of pork butt Friday night out at my MIL. Hickory and Apple wood. Beer, whiskey and some shine to keep us hydrated over night. Good times.
they've always worked for me.

Went exploring up in the Mt. Emily Recreation Area, OHV area is still closed due to fire, and the trails are closed due to wandering bison. But got the check out the trailhead anyways:

The problem with the Trailblazer is, people think you know what you're doing.

Depends on what his mission is...those may be all the functional mods he needs. Extra light and carrying capacity are two nicely functional mods. Looks like he gots a nice lil two wheeler that may be his real offroad rig.
they've always worked for me.

Steel bumpers wouldn't hurt. It gets freaking cold up there, and plastic becomes really easy to crack in the most minor of snow skids. Had a friend who bought a used Avalanche WAAAAAY back in the day. Spent a month in Quebec in January. Came out of the grocery store one day to see a car open their door, hit his truck, and cause spider cracks all over a plastic panel.
Plus if someone slides into the back of you, you're all good with a steel bumper.

MDB really is one of the only choices unless you want to fab up your own.

Or efans are snake oil. 30-40 amps are not a huge concern for a 150 amp alternator. The battery shouldn't even be asked to contribute an amp.SaltWaterDrinker wrote:
I will say that it is running hotter than usual and the fan is on a lot...it's putting a huge drain on my battery. It may just be that the battery is shot, but still.
