Scarecrow from scrap pile under shear, some old light for a eye, rusted out door skin for the head(dent on the sides of it's head) and the old parking lot light pole from work. Waiting for rust to happen.

Dang man... What you do? Jack up the radiator cap and slide a new truck under? That's a long list.

Pretty much, and to add to the list, I replaced the radiator.

Today was a bad day for working on the truck. Still can't get it to idle right, I twisted and ruined a brake line trying to remove the MC, and my lights are cutting in and like they did before I rewired the entire truck. Absolutely nothing went well today.

How do I go about repping people from my phone? Every time I try to write in the drop down box it disappears through the magic of technology.

I Guess I'll just stick to commenting my appreciation for posts.

Are you on the mobile site? I use the regular site and have no issues repping. In fact, you just got a rep.

I wasn't able to reply at all using the mobile site... On 2 different devices, and I don't even see a way to rep while using garage talk app. I just try to remember who I want to rep and do it when I get home to my computer.

I always use desk top view. I don't like mobile view.

I hit the scales icon and the window pops up to write in. I tap the window to write in and it disappears.

Aaaaaannd, my computer is broke.

Thank you for the reps. Mountain Dewd.

FWIW you can give a rep without leaving a comment. So you could give the rep to who you want then post the comment on the rep in that thread. That way it helps boost your post count.

It took a couple of tries to download the mobile app to my samsung phone. It was as if the whole download wasnt uploading on my phone, now my phone works like my computer on here. Was a pita for a month or 2.

Went to the Disney Oklahoma Saturday to ck out the off roading at the dam spill way. Way cool place, if you are a hardcore rock crawler. The water was up to high to get to the rest of the trails. I am taking one Bronco or the other next time.
