The state highway department has issued a travel warning due to snow storms and bad road conditions.

They suggest that anyone traveling in the current icy conditions should ensure that they have the following:

- Shovel
- Blankets or sleeping bag
- Extra winter clothing including coats,hat and gloves
- Water
- 24 hours worth of food
- De-icer
- Rock salt
- Flashlight with spare batteries
- Road flares or reflective triangles
- 5-gallon gas can
- First aid kit
- Booster cables

Its getting a 3" lift 32s 3" catback and a sct tuner from hemifever. Ordering yhe performance stuff this week.

It has 186k on the clock, but youd never be able to tell. People that we bought it from had an anti rust coating put on it when they bought it. Has a lifetime warranty against rust.. so the one small rust hole in therocker is getting fixed for free!

Also has every option that was available that year....except nav.

I'm stockpiling

Just got these in earlier this week... been like a box per day showing up since Tuesday

And the ammo can is finally filling back up again after the long ammo drought.

already had 800 subsonics, 50 cci mini mags, and 1/3rd of the can is full of loose federal 22lr (probably about 1500-2000 rounds in there loose)

so now up to 1000 rounds of subsonic, and 550 rounds of CCI mini mag.

and just got a box of 500 cci blazer ordered today

I have been closely monitoring ammo prices and stock, and when they become available in larger quantities for 7 cents a round or less, I buy up as many as the site(s) will let me

not worth it to buy a single box of 50rnd and pay shipping... brings the price per round up too much, and I absolutely REFUSE to pay these ammo vultures 2x-5x the cost of the ammo just to get it right then... they are doing the same thing I am, but with the intent to resell and rip people off.. I have no intent to resell. I plan to start shooting again now that I found a way to get ammo again since walmart is always sold out of 22lr. (the loose rounds and the 50rnd boxes of subsonics I have had since nov 2012 before the massive 22lr shortage really kicked into high gear)

And the amount of ammo I have is nothing right now compared to what I used to normally keep on hand. I've had that ammo can completely full of loose rounds at one point because when my buddies and I go shooting, WE GO SHOOTING! we burn through at least 550-1000 rounds in an hour or two target shooting as we all fire semi auto pistols and rifles.

buddy shoots a 10/22 and a Ruger pistol, I shoot a 15-22 and a P22 pistol.

I believe the saying goes Praise the lord, and pass the ammunition,... right?
