Why not to Zoodad

I found out today why I wouldn't want to do the Zoodad mod. We got about 5" rain in Central Texas. Streets were flooded. As I drove along slowly, waves of water would spray out the side of the truck. Vehicles coming the other way would cause heavy spray to wash up on the windshield. So I know it was hitting up into the grill much heavier than what I was seeing on the windshield. With the Zoodad mod. I would have been sucking water into the air filter. As it was, apparently water was deflected.

I am going to head down to the coast this weekend and see what kind of mileage I get with the new flash. See if I can't catch some reds.

Reds.....

1) Is that Red heads?

2) Red snapper

3) Reds.. not to be confuesed with greens and blues (oh remember those days)?

4) Beer with tomato juice in it (red beer).

Please explain... and boy... I hope it is "Red Heads" with Red snapper (ha, ha).

Commonly called redfish. It is a fish, you perv, that is a Red Drum. Great fun to catch and more fun to eat.
