Welcome from just on the "right" side of the Minnesota border. I'll get them guys an ice fishin Elio pic, but they'll be waiting a while. I'm still stubbornly refusing to reserve one till I can take one for a test ride.

I'm by no means a hyper miler, sometimes I'm even dead opposite when I'm having fun, but I am a cheapskate, and like to make my dollars go as far as they can. So, I thought this might be a good topic to discuss what you do to get the best out of whatever you drive while waiting on that shiny...

Numbers on the dial are just that, numbers. They can read English or Metric, just change the input signal to the drive motor. My 15 year old commuter car does this. Kinda fun running down the road at "100" instead of 60 actually. Besides, it's just a matter of time before some wrench bender...

My TRS-80 ain't got color. [emoji24]

The factory gauges get their inputs from the wiring harness. I'd bet Dakota could make a plug and play dashboard pretty easily. The fact that this info isn't available at the OBDII port doesn't mean the information doesn't exist.

In that case, may your mailbox be as empty as my beer fridge on a Monday morning!

I've hit probably a dozen deer in 30 years of driving. I agree with one of the first replies, that the narrow cab will help keep Bambi from joining you inside, which can really hurt. One bit of advice, brake but don't swerve to miss a corn munching antlered road rat. More people get seriously...

It hasn't changed much. Used to shoot trap up there once in a while.

No it's not. "Our" version sucks donkey nether regions. The Brit version is one of my favorite shows, but you couldn't make me watch Foust and the other dingdongs at gunpoint. Go ahead and shoot.

Tony, whereabouts in Polk Co.? I'm SE of Osceola. There's another member on here from Amery. Lots of commuters=high Elio interest I guess.

For the more sport minded among us, aluminum wheels and suspension parts would save a little weight where it would go a long way, handling wise.

Packers took Brady and Co. down a notch yesterday, thanks to a better every week defense. Between that and the Badgers keeping Paul Bunyan's axe out of the hands of a Gopher team that is finally becoming a competitive team to earn their spot in the Big 10 championship game, it was a good...

Im just a guy who has grease under his nails almost all the time. Usually "vintage" grease. I got a soft spot for the old Internationals. AMCs, blah. I had to look up the Pontiac motor, I've been around 389s before, but not the 4 cylinder version.

I wouldn't be concerned much about snow/ice/mud buildup on a Tweel, the flex would probably self clean better than a standard wheel. Conventional wheels can load up pretty bad if run in deep snow, enough to need attention in the form of heat or scraping. Tweel may well have other limitations...

Not a chance. Some smart alec like me will be along seconds after 1000 just to say "1001"!

Close but no ceegar. It was half of an IH 304. Both actually came out in 61.

Heck, I think it's good. No accounting for taste I guess. I'll try to find Carl's and give it a shot though.

Sorry Z, I ate it all, so no pics. It's a Norwegian potato flatbread. Heck, you could use it for a soft taco if you wanted. Best eaten warm, with butter and sugar, and rolled up. Add a dash of cinnamon if you want a little spice in your life. This is the stuff I get when I can't get my...

Some good reading for da lutefisk lovers and haters alike. The church is the one I belong to...

Heated seats were nice in the Silverado this morning. Got heated grips on the snowmobile too. They're pretty much standard on sleds these days.
