Blacked out my taillights with the ventshade tint spray:


Trimmed the rest of my valence so it looks better:


And put my thumb through my fender trying to figure out how bad the rust spot was (OOPS!):

Picked up my truck from the mechanic. The 4.10's made a good diffrence. Doesn't take as much gas to get going and doesn't lug for a few seconds when it first hits a new gear. Can run in overdrive without having to shift down into drive on the side roads. Keeps speed a whole lot better on hills. Still bogs down about 5mph on the bad one on the way to work, but thats better than the 15-20mph it used to do. I iz happy!

Haha, Well it has been discussed before but I have no idea what thread lol.

Toronto had a thing a 10 years ago with 150 moose. Each one was either sold or leased to a bidder. To which the winner got a fiberglass moose. They were then painted by an artist and set around Toronto to show off. Well they made their rounds and aren't too many around anymore. The one you see is in my backyard and was actually JUST finished being repainted by the original painter. Roy Bowers who saw this moose on Toronto's weather channel because my dad sent in a picture to show our weather lol. Long story short. We obtained the moose for next to nothing in a trade, and never thought anything of it. Now, Ten years later, It is freshly painted by the original painter (87 years old now) and my dad uses it as a business card lol

Its really neat up close and has a beautiful painting of a cottage on one side and a canoe on the other.

Here it is at its first location in Toronto

well after a quick drive in the blazer a few days ago and when I pulled in I noticed a coolant leak. Well I had been losing coolant slightly before but this time it drained the whole overflow tank. So I pulled out the radiator and found the crack. So went to advance and got a new radiator yesterday. Put it in today, flushed all old coolant and put new in. Well I went to start it up and the battery is dead and even on a jump box doesnt seem to be able to get it started. So looks like ill be back at advance to get a battery tomm.
