    Why I love labs

    I love all the pics as I have been considering a lab for a while.. The issue is finding a breeder near me that gives me the confidence in getting a healthy dog. Part of the problem is I don’t know anyone with a lab up here to talk to.. Anyone have a recommendation in the Sandpoint Idaho region...

    “D” rated tire opinions

    Hey guys, Looking to replace the factory tires on our 2023 f150 but wanna stay with d rated as it doesn’t go off road but definitely needs to be a great snow/ice tire for the north Idaho winters. I am running cooper at3’s on my other truck and love them but I am trying to keep the ride and gas...

    Vehicle purchase ( possible eco diesel)

    So I told my wife that there are only 2 things I would leave her over.. fooling around on me and buying a Subaru..🤣🤣. Yeah this second vehicle purchase is a tough one. Our f150 is a 5.0 and actually gets an average of 19 and that’s with an e rated tire. No matter what we buy we will be...

    Vehicle purchase ( possible eco diesel)

    Hey guys, I am starting to research getting a second vehicle that gets better gas mileage than my f150 but has a little ground clearance for our dirt road that becomes mud in the spring. I drove a highlander yesterday but was not really impressed and then I got to thinking about the eco diesel...

    Elk Stolen in Billings

    Canceled weekend...Bearing Edition

    If you haven’t already done the job, be sure to depower the electronic power steering rack. I got lucky but you can fry the rack by hitting the ball joints to hard. Found that little gem of info (after I was done) in a 4wd forum and it was not mentioned anywhere else I researched

    Big fin is in trouble

    Many years ago I would have the same nightmare about someone being in the house and we were shooting at each other.. my 44 would go off but the bullet would roll out of the barrel( vs 6 ft that arjcktts had).. there has to be some meaning there but it is beyond me.

    Big fin is in trouble

    What’s funny is I typically don’t have those kind of dreams.

    Big fin is in trouble

    Had a dream last night that randy took me way back in the mountains and then left me there. What’s funny is he took my GPS, OnX and left me with only a compass. All I gotta say he better hope we don’t see each other soon or we are gonna have words..😂😂 The brain is a scary thing.
