Close Apoc, we went to Magnolia Point. It's just north of Green Cove Springs.
Living in a gated community might be ok if I wanted to play golf all day. I like to work on my vehicles and they frown on vehicles on jack stands for two days waiting for parts in the driveways there. My wife noticed several of the newer houses in there had a two stall garage on each side of the house. She asked it those were his and hers garages.
I almost crashed I was laughing so hard. I will have to look for that if we ever decide to move again and I don't get a place big enough to build a proper shop/man cave.

Use my wounded X (exhaust manifold leak) to drag the boat to the lake for it's spring shake down cruise.


Here's why I have nicknamed the EX Overkill, more truck then I need to haul a 17' boat.

Anything worth killing once is worth over killing.

Is 700 bucks a good price for a set of those bad boys? I have a source and I'm debating on holding off on my exhaust install and getting them...

I have no idea. I am new to this game myself! But from my research, that does seem a little high. Depends on want and wallet. Of course factor in shipping etc and may not be to bad of a deal. The wheel itself is a rarity, much less 4 in good shape. Another thing is they are over 10yrs old and no longer in production..., just throwng that out there....

Took a family vote and named my daily driver "CTC" or Chitty Tin Can...
The Ex is now "The Truck".

Just fooling around. Frustrated with this EGR delete, have hit a bolt that I just can't seem to crack. Will try again tomorrow.

Wheels are off for more room, and I really only half know what I'm doing.

Yes, up to $800. $150.00-$200.00 per wheel is a good price I have seen prices as high as $1500.00 for the set.

Buy them, if WE3ZS had not scored mine I would be all over them with free shipping.

Agsmv1 you should fine with what came with the rims, those closed caps should fit over your hubs, the '04 H-D F-250 that Mark's rims came off of was a 4X4 and those wheels all have the solid caps. Those caps pop on and off easily with the rubber cover tip of the factory lug wrench or like I use a brake tool wrapped in tape. So as long as you aren't locking and unlocking your hubs too frequently it shouldn't be too much of a hassle. I keep forgetting when exactly the lug studs switched from the earlier coarse thread and went to the later fine thread, I think the change was in '02 or '03. The chrome H-D nuts that are coming with your rims will be fine thread so as long as your EX has fine studs you are all set to go!
