Truck back from the detailer yesterday. Holy shine batman. You can see my uncle reflected perfectly in the first pic and he is 50 feet away. Unfortunately it is now up on craigslist for sale.

I'm pretty sure one of you MFC *******s sent me a troll offer via text this morning

[mm394006]

Showed up at my parents house and mom said she had a surprise for me. Had probably 5 times this many and told me the rotten/damaged ones were all mine. 'Splodin maters is fun.

Don't hate on my povertytime red dot and generic out of the box RRA rofl. She is my first babyslayer and I like her.

I only offer Komodo dragons in my troll offers. It's way too early for me to go searching CL to find your ad anyways.

Anyone pick up anything good over the weekend? After I saw that PSA wasn't going to do free shipping I kind of quit keeping up with the sales. That and I found out Friday afternoon I have to go up to NY for work next week so I wasn't in the mood to do much of anything this weekend.

I can confirm, he has 99 jimmies and I ain't rusted one.

mirin front plate.

truck looks good!!

Thanks. Had to go out and wipe it down and do a quick buff after driving it home yesterday. Covered in dust.

Very nice. Current truck (beater f-150) is stock, next truck will hopefully be aleast 6" and 35's, if not 37's

New truck i'm thinking I will level it, and then put it on some 32" BF Goodrich M/S tires. The 2015 2500HDs will fit 32" tires without a lift

Someone texted me saying based on my front license plate they think I may be interested in a trade for 350 HiPoint Compact 9mms.

How does a police department lose a Humvee?

One freezing day last December in the tiny town of Palestine, Ark., a young man climbed into the police department’s Humvee, turned it on, and drove off on a joy ride.

“It never crossed my mind” that anyone would do that, Palestine Police Chief Stanley Barnes said Wednesday of the incident. The Humvee, which the town of fewer than 700 people got for free through a controversial Pentagon program that gives old military equipment to local police departments, doesn’t have keys. But it’s easy to look up how to start one.

The possibility that the 5,000-pound Humvee might be stolen was so far from Barnes’ mind that it took a week before anyone on the small force noticed it was missing from the police station’s parking lot.

Once Barnes noticed it was gone, he sprang into action.

“We just do what police officers do — we find out who done it,” Barnes said. “People talk.”

A hunter reported seeing the vehicle, which was emblazoned with the police department’s logo, in the woods a county over. The thief had driven into a tree and completely wrecked it. Barnes sent a truck over to pick up the Humvee and tow it back to the station.

The police department now uses the massive wreck for parts for its other Humvee, which it also obtained from the Department of Defense Excess Property Program (DOD 1033) to help fight crime in the small town.

As odd as it may seem that a hulking armored personnel carrier could go missing from a police department, it’s not that uncommon an occurrence.

In fact, at least three other police stations have misplaced or been robbed of their government-issued Humvees in the past five years. Weapons turn up missing, too. Yahoo News found that local police departments like Palestine's have been suspended from the Pentagon 1033 program for misplacing at least 14 M16 assault rifles, 11 M14 assault rifles, 21 pistols and 10 shotguns. These figures don’t come close to representing the total number of weapons that have been stolen or lost over the life of the program, however — a figure the Defense Department has not released.

.

I know you mentioned you got the gas, but I dont recall you saying why not diesel. Any reason?? Im currently torn between the two.

[blumpkin415]

How much your detailer charge you?

$250

Strip, clay bar, compound/polish, two coats of wax, wheels completely cleaned of all corrosion then shined, frame and suspension components cleaned and painted flat black, engine compartment spotless. He had 10 hours into it

I was impressed at the attention to detail

Haven't bought a new one yet, gotta sell this one. But going with the 6.0L because while I like diesel, the duramax/allison package adds roughly $10k to the price of the vehicle. I don't do enough towing to really justify the diesel. the Gasser hauls my camper just fine. Diesel is more expensive per gallon. Plus I love the sound of a 6.0L V8 with dual exhaust.

Ahh gotcha, thought you already snagged a '15, my bad. I hear ya. I dont tow anything, I just like diesel, But with all the new emissions chit and all (plus fords recent reputation in the diesel world) the idea of a diesel is not very comforting. ford came out with a 6.2 gasser which seems pretty hnggg (im a die hard ford guy from a ford family) the 6.2 comes in the whole ford line too (150,250,350)

Too many damn options.

[taf1968]

Gawd, I hate the Tuesday after a long weekend. Everyone comes out of the woodwork with "emergencies" that they sat on last week because they were too busy slacking due to the long weekend coming up.

Yeah. I love me a duramax, but it just doesn't make sense. Perhaps in a few years when I upgrade the camper to a 5th wheel i'll upgrade to a duramax

The has been relatively slow for the first hour or so... Most likely because people are too busy getting their kids ready for back to school instead of calling me.

Maybe it would be worth it to stay gas and use the savings for this diesel.

[iUnknownKiller]

For christmas my GF decided to cover the cost of training for Chris Costa's Carbine Element 1.
I know people have differing opinions of him, but theres no denying he is a great instructor.

Has anyone taken this course, or anything like it?

Im pretty stoked.

Did I miss anything cool this weekend?

I was busy listening to hillbilly music and eating too much in Nashville.

Jarryd was blowing guys apparently

Jarryd was blowing guys apparently

No money was blown though. Well not much anyway. I got a few boxes of ammo, 3 boxes of 5.56 and 1 box of 9mm that I got cheap. I plan to buy all the zqi 5.56 at the Walmart every pay day. That is unless I show up and they have 100 boxes or something.

[tactical45]

isn't that krebs AK like $1900?

[Farley1324]

So since im new to MFC... What other hobbies are you guys in to? I was thinking of buying a functional sword as well, for ****s and giggles mostly

Other than occasionally lifting weights nothing consistent or worth mentioning because that time and $ could be spent on ammo, range time, etc

Looks TST. Black paint is hnnnggg when it's done right like that, especially in lower/indirect lighting like dawn/dusk or at night

I think this weekend's official MFC purchase was $109.95 G2S, Geissele's poverty wannabe-SSA
