  1. You know, Cigarette Butts are the #1 rated Worst Litter Bug GLOBALLY. There are more discarded cigarette butts then anything else out there. Now I'm not a smoker and I'm aware that a lot of smokers are irate with a lot of rights they feel they've lost over the years, but honestly.... If I were a cop, I'd be that asshole cop pulling EVERYONE over for throwing wrappers and cigarette butts out the window while they're driving. I once stopped and picked up a butt some dude threw out at a light, went back to his car knocked on the window and when he rolled it down i said "You dropped this. Thought you might want it back." and threw it in his car with the burner still going. I felt really good after that since there really wouldn't be anything that he could do since littering is Illegal. At any rate, the shore lines that I clean up at the beaches are always riddled with thousands of butts every clean up which drives me nuts. I even had a guy once Toss his butt on the sand in front of us WHILE we were cleaning up the beach. I just about F***ing lost it.

     

    I really don't get the mentality of a person who litters at all. They know its illegal, they must know that it's just wrong on so many levels, they must know that there are millions of Waste containers ready to take your trash provided for you all over the place, so really...... I don't get it...

     

     

    Part in RED.

     

    you know i smoke, and i have a huge rule for people riding in my rig.

    If you smoke, put it out on the door and throw it on the floor.

    I'll clean it up later.

    Better than throwing them on the ground, wich i NEVER do,

    its quite normal to go camping wiht me and pull a hand full of cig buts out of my back pocket.

    cuase its better than on the ground.

  2. ??? What are you referring to?

     

     

    This really only pertains to the states,

    In canada you don't have public ORV parks.

     

    Down here, we have work parties to clean, maintain, and repair severly damaged trails.

     

    90% of this is done by volunteers.

     

    I'd like to know how many of our US (more specifially Washington or NW) have attended work parties to keep our decreasing ORV parks open.

    Cause when there are no more volunteers, we will have no more ORV parks (public)

  3. Make sure you get my good side,

     

    This is just a Bull@!*% thing thats not worth replying too,there is a diffrence between on trail riding and off trail riding.The reason the stuff is being closed down is 90 percent of the time pinko *** tree hungers saying that even the trails are ruining the land for the animals.Which they have NO proof of because the crust of the earth changes every day on its own.Kinda like the oil spill,big frigging deal,the earth has been pissing it out for millions of years,is a little more gonna hurt it.

     

     

    your right.. no argument from me.

    there is a difference between on trail and off trail riding.. one is legal the other is not.

     

    but if all it takes is for people to stay on the trail, be responsilbe, and tread lightly.. to keep our trails open.. then i'm all for it.

     

     

    How many people on this board have been to a work party?

     

    i have about 40 hours of volunteer time in this year alone, and more last year.

  4. you guys who question the tread lightly may want to consider going to some of your regional meetings with some of the clubs that are working to keep our ORV parks open.

     

    they are all being CLOSED because of dip @!*% idiots.

     

    they are now implementing wheel base and width restrictions.

     

    I cannot wheel at evans creek anymore. 72" outside of tire to outside of tire.

     

    rattlesnake trail in naches 75" width, 95" wheelbase

     

    and by next spring, all of naches (and associated areas )will have a 75" wheel base restriction.(with leght as well.)

     

    I'm so tired of my wheeling areas getting closed down (they are getting closed because of idiots that don't care or tread lightly, but instead of patroling the area, they are cutting down traffic with these restrictions)

     

    If i see any one of you purposely going off trail, or damaging the area,

    I will take a picture of YOU, YOUR VECHICLE, YOUR LICENCE PLATE,

     

    and i'll send it to the authorities.

  5. sorry it took so long, i'm out of town on business.

     

    for the OBA,

    I put the switch and guage just forward of the stick shift and under the console.

    I only had to run the control power and a guage line to the back. I have power (50amp) in the back of my rig, so i didn't have to run a power cable to the back.

    eventually, i'll run a line to the front bumper and to the back, but this will do for now.

  6. 383 in the pathy will warrant 1 tons.

     

    D60 front. as for ford dodge.. etc..

     

    depends, are you going to runt eh stock nissan T case? if so, then it MUST be a ford.

     

    however, 1 tons are going to be very wide. so narrowing htem is going to be expensive.

     

    to get a Ford D60 for the front, expect to pay about 1200 bucks. this does not include gears lockers.. etc.

    for the rear get a 14BFF duelly, and put single wheel hubs on it, should be about the right width, i'd have to check the numbers to get an exact measurement.

     

    there is nothing cheap about doing a SAS on a nissan.

  7. i was originally going to put the compressorin the engine bay, and the tank under. but i thought better of it becuase

     

    1) compressor gets really hot, and the heat in the engine bay will add to this, plus.. just don't have the room with everything else.

     

    2) i have crammed everythign imaginable into places under my rig. sticks, logs, rocks.. you name it.

     

    so i just put it all int eh back, it actually looks good but was PITA..

    again, i'll get some pics.

  8. the ONLY time ive ever seen this happen 3 occations total

     

    was in my old plymoth champ.. carb problems, and hot.

     

    1 kia sephia,cam timing way off.

     

    toyota pickup, Cam timing way off.

     

    are you sure your timging belt didn't jump?

     

    never does a pathfinder start that hard.
