You don't think "OH THE PAIN....THE EXQUISITE PAIN....." needs to be peppered in there?

The nickle coats a bit under $0.13 cents to make each ifni remember correctly. Why aren't we trying to kill that too?

If you wanted me to be a fan, you'd find a way to make it cost less.

I think my number is only as high as it would take for me to build and pay off a place to hide it in and forget about it.

Ordered dirt, company delivered landscaping rocks, they apologized, we laughed, they laughed, the rocks didn't laugh. Our garden beds are now filled with a compost/topsoil blend, just need to plant stuff.

Whole family got together for mothers day up in Michigan and had a great time. We had an extra person to give gifts to which is exciting.

Well, this weekend went way better than the week started. My sister-in-law had an awesome time at her prom from what she told us. And my wife somehow found an MSR 4-person tent for $10 at Goodwill. We did a test set up yesterday and the thing looks like it's unused.

They might be doing some sort of glass chop in areas (actually, i wouldnt be surprised if this is what they mean by "composit body panels", open molds would be cheap as hell, and parts are cheap too), but I used to use that more for body panels or exterior details than anything super structural. I guess they could do fiberglass frame rails, but that still feels like it would be a strange choice at what just doing basic ladder frame in steel would cost.

They are around a rhododendron, maple tree, and keeping a walk area on one side of the house clear.

Quick guesstimate is that he made enough mulch to cover about 400 square feet about 4 to 6 inches deep.

It's also 20ish" shorter, seats 5 with a 5 foot bed, can carry 4x8 sheets flat between the wheel wells (and tailgate closed if the midgate is open), tows a bit over 3 tons, has an AWD option, and the base range beats the maxed out range on the Slate. They aren't really competitors beyond "small truck." Telo is absolutely maxed out for it's size, Slate is as cheap as cheap can go.
