    I am to poor to have two dogs, just one has to do. Someday if I work hard enough I might be able to have two dogs...

    I do have two houses though.


    I only have one house, but it's as large as two. Working on a second one for a disabled friend to stay in. I also have two machine guns. I have so many guns they're spreadsheeted and have their own bank account. It's publicly known I have two women--one wife, and we have a GF.

    You definitely need to work harder if you're stuck in a liberal scum area like Hamilton County.

    I can't offer advice on how to get a bigger p3n!$. That's genetic. God loves me. So's the supergenius IQ, the perfect vision and hearing, and the insanely low BP and CV fitness.

    The 5 bestsellers and multiple awards I earned, though.

    I bring this up since apparently your purpose in being here is going to every thread and telling everyone how awesome you are, and frankly, you're not that special.

    Any time you want to compare anything, though, including shooting scores at the range, I'm easy to find.

    Toodles, sweetie.

    I run Duratracs on the back of my truck in the winter. We have a second set of rims so we just swap them out quick and easy here at home. I add about 1200 pounds of weight in the bed and can't even get the tires to spin in the snow most days. My old Chevy just plows through everything. No 4WD needed here. :):

    My car with radials and AWD seems to be adequate. Although I know people who do get winter/summer tires.

    Wife's car has no ability to turn off the traction control. So crossing an intersection using the excessive tire rotation method is not possible. Great improvement in winter traction with a set of Michelin X-Ice Xi3 tires. The winter tires are a little louder due to the open tread pattern and have a little different feel than the all season Michelin's we run in the non-winter months. We have enjoyed the benefits enough to have purchased a second set after the original set was worn beyond 6/32".

    In all your awesomeness did you miss the part where MBills trolled me? I never stated anything or let the bs follow into another thread, I simply offered what knowledge I had on this subject and moved on.

    If you are going to cry about someone it should probably be the person who is butthurt and follows me around...

    Huh. I always thought they were for igniting a carefully laid trail of gasoline.:dunno:

    To each their own. Probably works better than as a traction aid.

    I run Duratracs on the back of my truck in the winter. We have a second set of rims so we just swap them out quick and easy here at home. I add about 1200 pounds of weight in the bed and can't even get the tires to spin in the snow most days. My old Chevy just plows through everything. No 4WD needed here. :):

    1200#?! no kidding you won't spin the tires. Not my first choice but it works.

    I must have missed whatever led to this mess. You need to let whatever it is go though.

    yea, saw part of it in another thread too. seems a localized disagreement has spilled out onto the street.
