I bought a cheap Samsung tablet to use bluetooth and wifi to a couple gauges in my car. 69.99 and I had 60 in best buy coupons. So 10.59 delivered for a 7" android tablet. It wont sync with Apple.

Damn, surprised nobody had a deal on the Nvidia Shield TV this year. I'd like to get a 3rd for the house, best set top box ever. Last year everybody had them for $150.

Fire TV doesn't compare. I was watching Deadpool in 4k HEVC 10-bit last night, 40gb file but damn was it pretty :lol: I don't run Kodi anymore, I've been using Plex the last 6 months or so.

EDIT: Forgot to add, if you get a HDHomerun Prime with a CableCARD, you can do live TV as well, and DVR if you have a NAS that supports HDHomerun DVR.

I threw a new set of Goodyear Duratracs on the Hummer. I turned in my redneck card while selling my 60,000 mile 305/70/16 Duratracs to the tireshop and ordering stock sized 265/75/16's.... Gas mileage is immediately better, should tow better too!

How much did you get for them??
 
$100, they were worth more and still in impressive shape but I felt like a worldclass business mogul selling used tires to a tire salesman. :) I said, "how about $100?".. he said "how about $80".. I said...I want $200, but ill GIVE them to you for $100.. SOLD.

He didnt even kick them....*knee slap*

Nice work. Since I added my lift, I'm thinking about upgrading to 315/75/16s (35s) on the FJ80... but my Toyo AT2s are wearing really well. They look almost new with 30k on them. 35s will fit no problem and it will clear 37s with a tiny trim..but it's already underpowered and I don't really want to regear.

37s... :yum:

It's going to be tough cilmbing up to your roof tent with bigger hoops. :) That brushguard/winch mount/light holder/rockrail/rollcage is friggin killer.

33" is big. Bigger means more noise, more money, more gas. Oh and going smaller rides nicer. I dont know if it is less tire bounce or if the shocks could not control the bigger tires. Its funny to find myself speeding on accident again. That didnt happen with 305's... 70+ was a struggle.

Yeah, it's definitely not a fast truck. I usually cruise right around 68mph with the current 33s. I'm sure if I step up to 35s, I'll be down to 65mph on the highway. I have bikes for going fast :)
 
And yeah, I want that bumper. They are $900 new, usually still $750 used. Scored one last year on CL for $400..... and went to install it and it turns out it was for a Land Rover... not a Land Cruiser. Seller told me tough luck. Ended up selling it for $450. :)
