    95 Tahoe Exhaust chev 350

    So I recently picked up a '95 Tahoe in decent shape (for MN) and have begun some small customization on it. I've never done anything other than stock exhaust so bear with me.

    Three MN Rivers in one day

    My dad and I had an awesome time boating on Sunday. We launched west of St. Paul on the Mighty Muddy Mississippi. We headed east under the 35E bridge, past downtown Saint Paul, under the 7th st bridge and than the Hwy 52 bridge. Seeing downtown St. Paul from the river is an awesome experience...

    Time Lapse Boat Ramp

    This may have been posted before but I think it's kinda neat. A time lapse of 5 hours at a ramp in Lake Tahoe. I like the guy that stalls around 1:48 and the cigerrette boat around 1:40. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ho1705vkc-k

    Trailer Sabotage

    Okay, this is the second time this year someone has tried to sabotage me. The first time someone removed my pin in the trailer lock lever and it caused my lever to pop-up on the way home (I bought a lockable pin to fix this). Yesterday I was at a launch I had never been to. The outing on the...

    Daniel Tosh

    I don't know if anyone of you have seen Daniel Tosh's work (Tosh.O and standup). I was watching his standup bit "Completely Serious" and he has a bit on jet ski's that's pretty funny. Something to the tune of "You ever see someone on a jet-ski NOT SMILING!" Sooo true...I would only be...

    Nikon Action EX 10x50 thoughts

    I just ordered a pair of Nikon Action EX 10x50 binoculars. I checked them out at FleetFarm before I ordered them and in comparison to the others on display they seemed like pretty decent binoculars with good clarity and focus at all distances. Does anyone own these and what are your thoughts...

    New Humminbird 587ci

    I'm not sure what the ci stands for in this model number but this looks like a decent fishfinder for the amateur fisherman that I am. I was more concerned about getting a good read on the depth so I can stop banging up my props. Any advice on this unit? I noticed there are HotMaps that I may...
