RE: Good Sam ERS Works...However

I say BULL, but a good story you wrote. First off, the highway patrol would NEVER let u sit in the road like you say, they would have stopped a semi and had him push you off the road. But it made for dumb reading on a boring night.
Wow. Did someone pi$$ in your cereal?

RE: Colorado: Camping and Fishing

I hestiate to share this but, out of Gunnison up the Taylor River is Taylor Park. Lakeview Campground now has water/elec sites as well as the usual non-hookup sites. Boats can be rented there also. Lots of small high country lakes around the area to fish. The single big draw back (JMHO) is the area has become popular to ORV's (4 wheelers/gator's/etc). Taylor Park Trading Post rents FHU sites as well as cabins if needed.
That was supposed to be a secret. ;) Been going up the Taylor Canyon since I was a kid. Prettist place in the whole state. Darn, I wish people didn't know about it. :(

RE: Land Rover is a Truck

Ok. So is it a 1/2 or a 3/4 ton truck? Can I get this in a long bed or short bed? Better yet, can I get it as a dually?:B

RE: 22 Degrees Tonight!!! What should I do?

Or you could drive up here to Colorado. The low tonight is supposed to be 30 degrees. You should be fine? ;)
Just don't go to Winter Park--their low is supposed to be 1 and Friday's low of -5....
You got that right. My son lived up in Granby for awhile. Brrrrrr:)

RE: Is that all there is????

Thanks for all the replies. I've always found most folks on here to be helpful and informative. I will admit I was trying to stir things up a bit. When I check the forum and I see 8 or 9 pages on one topic such as gate guarding or amazon, it get a little redundant. It's always nice to read something that's new. I've already enjoyed reading all your new posts. Thanks! Maybe I'm getting cabin fever???

RE: Is that all there is????

Oh I know. It just seems like it's been really quiet lately. Every time I look at this site, all I see is gate guarding and amazon.

I'm beginning to think the only workamping to be found is at Amazon or being a gate guard?

RE: Branson, MO campground recommendations

X2 for Table Rock Lake State Park. We've been going there for the past several years. One of the nicest state parks around. Campground #2 is our favorite, but #1 is nice also.

RE: Oh No!!! I have the drip!!!!

Thanks a bunch guys for all of your comments. I'll let you know what I find out when I go to the Ford garage. Capt Skup, i guess the answer to most of your questions is NO. I changed the oil myself and have never seen any of the issues you're talking about. I did have the Ford garage change the coolant at about 45k miles. Nothing unusual about the oil either. Here awhile back, the engine oil cooler was replaced and the thermostat at the same time. I can only hope it's just a hose issue, but will let you guys know when I find out. Thanks again!

RE: Oh No!!! I have the drip!!!!

Thanks for all the info. Hey DREEDER, when you talk about stats, I'm assuming you're talking about the thermostat? A few months back, the Ford garage did have to replace the thermostat on my truck, so I'm hoping it is just a hose. We'll see. Thanks again.

No, not that kind of drip. I went out to the garage the other day, and it looks like I had a couple drops of anti-freeze on the garage floor!:E I crawled under the truck and it looks like it came from the front of the engine block of my 6.4 diesel:M Anyway, I'll have to get over to Ford garage and find out what the deal is??? It's still under warrenty, but I just don't like the idea of this happening.

RE: Does Colorado have non-resident licenses?

While you're here during the months of July and August, why don't you go into the county clerks office in Ft Collins and duscuss this issue in person with the folks there. They will be the ones to determine wheather or not it's possible or not anyway.

RE: .

...and when towing a diesel gets much better mpg so what's your point?
When you're towing, the mileage pretty much sucks whether you have gas or diesel.

RE: E-Bay called me about selling my truck

With all the scams out there, I'd stay clear of that. I just sold my dads pickup through autotrader. It's been listed for two days and it's been sold real quick. When I sold another truck 3 years ago, I had several folks call up to sell it for me. I passed and sold it myself.

RE: Dodge Cummins, which year for best MPG?

I'm not a Dodge man, but I just drove my dad' 2001 pickup home to sell it for him. He said it got 22 - 24 mpg. I can't say for sure, but for a truck with 50k miles on it, I was sure impressed. I had to stop every now and then to look at the truck to insure I was not driving a semi truck. I was impressed by it. I think the older trucks were more bullet proof than the newer trucks. JMHO:)
