    GASOLINE OCTANE

    During briefing, a supervisor (Sergeant) addressed the night shift and after reading all the BOL stuff, he made a profound statement, which is absolutely true. Basically he said if two cops that are best friends are under investigation he would segregate both. He said he would tell the first...

    GASOLINE OCTANE

    Thanks Bullet Bob, as you are probably well aware, nightmares are real to the person experiencing it, which is the reason 52% of my retirement income is tax free. The so called experts call it PTSD and I was in denial for many years. I’m venting, so please bare with me. Shootings are part of the...

    GASOLINE OCTANE

    I lived it for 32 years! I also have a BA, but I also make $170k, of which, 52% is tax free….in retirement. However when I became a cop, I did not know, or think about retirement. I taught at the police academy for over three years, I know very well about those that become cops. A reality check...

    GASOLINE OCTANE

    First, you watch too many cop shows on TV. Secondly, I wasn’t one of the people in school that could sit thru a lecture and get a B. I had to study my butt off to get a B-. Also most cops, me included, did not go into LE to, as they say during interviews, help people. Most did so out of...

    GASOLINE OCTANE

    First I need to clarify that I know almost nothing about vehicle mechanics. I also need to establish that I traded my 2019 Raptor for a 2023 Lariat for the added towing capacity. However I still own a 2021 37. Last night I was at a Christmas Party and met a person whom works at Ford Performance...

    What price to put on my Raptor 37?

    Haha…..just as I thought. The ole, I don’t have to prove anything….I get It. I was awarded the CMH, but I don’t like cameras, so it wasn’t publicized. Give it a rest!! My neighbor and his wife worked at Facebook before it went IPO. They have more money than I can comprehend. He trashes trucks...

    What price to put on my Raptor 37?

    Actually I own a 37. How about posting a few videos of you driving your Raptor off road??? I would love to see your $90 truck in action!! Isn’t the internet great, anyone can pretend to be a stud!

    What price to put on my Raptor 37?

    I’m pretty new to the UTV world and below is a very short story that occurred two weeks ago. I used a trail map to navigate from Boise to Idaho City, about 30 miles off road. The first 10 miles were on a 10 foot wide dirt road. Then the road started to get more and more narrow where it...

    What price to put on my Raptor 37?

    I also own a Polaris SXS and the Raptor can not come close to the ability of a SXS. Impossible to compare the two vehicle’s, even in sand. I would love for someone to post a YouTube video of a Raptor climbing large boulders like the ones in Moab. Maybe sand dunes, but truly a road or trail cut...

    What price to put on my Raptor 37?

    Hahahaha…..life is not a TV commercial, very few take a $90k truck “off road.” Maybe down an occasional dirt road, but not over boulders. I have owned all generations, except the R. They are like fake boobs, they look good, but don’t feel right!

    What price to put on my Raptor 37?

    What price to put on my Raptor 37?

    Although the 37 may absorb bump’s slightly better than the 35, the 35 handles much better, especially at speed. The 37 is a big boat and bigger is not always better.

    2024 Raptor Order MSRP

    This MSRP thing gets tossed around all the time and I honestly envy those that paid MSRP, or less. Although I couldn’t find it, I read somewhere on this forum that a person purchased a….I believe a 2021 and priced the identical vehicle, except 2024, at a cost….I think he wrote, 19k more. I paid...

    Towing a large boat with the gen 3

    InstallEd the Jack E Up today. It works perfectly. I do not need a hitch ball mount extender and the tailgate drops down without issue! Wish I thought of it!

    2024 F-150

    Your post brings up a question for which I hope to get many opinions. I read all kinds of stuff about investments and the economy, but nothing is as accurate as main st USA. The Jobs report blew up expectations and wages are not keeping up with inflation. The mortgage rate is almost 8%, which is...

    Towing a large boat with the gen 3

    I ordered this today. I don’t know how it works, but if it does work, it will be much better than tow ball extension https://jack-e-up.com/ An extension will dramatically reduce the payload capacity, which will be depicted in the black box. Big brother is watching! Most people don’t realize...

    Sorry to beat a dead horse, but I assume there are some like me that know little, or nothing about how to tow as safe as possible. Click the attached link to learn about ball drop and/or rise...

    Towing a large boat with the gen 3

    I guess it depends where you are located, but I know if a bad collision occurred, a primary focus will be on payload capacity, which is recorded in the black box. On a related topic, yesterday I discovered that I could not fully open my tailgate with the trailer attached. The trailer Jack...

    Towing a large boat with the gen 3

    For those that tow, the attachments are a comparison using the exact same trailer and UTV. There no occupants inside either truck. I took both trucks to a commercial scale facility and discovered the orange truck exceeded its cargo capacity by 200 pounds…..with me inside…175 pounds. The black...

    Traded my Raptor

    Okay, I can’t resist! I’m sooo glad you remembered me, but I have no clue about you, which simply means, you don’t matter. That said, I am super glad you decoded the password on your parents Wi-Fi!

    Traded my Raptor

    that was not meant to be a personal attack, you suggested, because I’m a grumpy old man, I bounce, that is personal. I did not even address you! Conversely, you stuck your nose in. This all started because some got their ******* in a bunch due to me objectively comparing the Raptor, in which I...

    Traded my Raptor

    You’re from Washington, the state where 3/4 of the land mass want to become Idaho. Are you part of the cancel culture for which Seattle is so famous? Do you believe people should not express their opinions, especially if others are offended? Let me guess, you are the forum police? I actually...

    Traded my Raptor
