Hope everyone is having a great Sunday...enjoy!

 

Shoot. Cant believe I havent posted in here yet. I've been super busy with school and other bs. Going into midterms this week. We had some family down this weekend and got the nice weather Saturday so we went out and shot for about 4 hours. Pouring here again thankfully.

Here's a pic of my uncle with my neighbors .50AE Desert Eagle. That's my White Whale in the background.

It jumps but it's nothing unmanageable or painful. I'm a small dude and I handle it. My aunt who's all of about 5'4" shot the hell out of it.

To me it's just kind of a novelty gun, I dont see a lot of use, but you feel like one bad motha when you're shooting it...

 

I bet.

Here was my weekend ride.



Drove it over 1,000 miles in a day and a half, and from Friday morning until Sunday night I drove 1,464 miles total, most in the S10, and 400+ in my F350. I was surprised when I got home and filled up the F350 that it averaged 13.3 mpg pulling the empty car trailer behind it. I couldn't believe it and tried to put more gas in it (it only took 15 gals) and ended up causing it to back up and pour all over the side of the truck. I have never been able to record 13 mpg in that thing. Most the time it is around 8, and on the freeway it gets 10 or 11 at best.

Another surprise was how well the S10 performed. It has the V6 in it, and even loaded down with 800lbs of Honda it charged up the hills in Southern California with ease. I was impressed, and I am not a Chevy fan by any means.

I read about your epic journey there. My 460 never touched higher than 11 when I was driving. My grandpa swore he used to get 13/14 with it.

That 4.3l in the s10's is a ballsy little motor. If I could get one of the zr10's or whatever the 4wd package is with the locker and the 4.3l for cheap I'd scoop it up in a heartbeat.

 

Good Evening Northern Cal.

 

Happy two for Tuesday Nor Cal FTE and friends. Hope everyone has a great day.

Yes, I like the GM 4.3 V6. Many years ago when the 4.3 was introduced, I worked for a security firm which bought a new S10 for patrols. It was a blast to drive, especially with no weight in the back.
