I have heckled the weather lately so I hope all who were wet are drying out. As for that cold front that came through through this part of Iowa, all I can say is brrrr.... no rain but plenty of clouds and cold. Beats stewing in heat but I am surprised how cool it is for almost June.

It seems this spring is a wet cool spring in the midwest all over... Won't promise it will be different next year, but it seems cooler at least and probably wetter in Kansas this spring than average. I think it might be an LaNina year, Might have seen that someplace in my web travels, which might have accounted for your wet and cool Rio Grande Valley experience last year.

I like... but I don't believe it at all... you have just as many emotions, perhaps you just can't name them all, or stuff them deep to hide them from yourself and all else. (or maybe the jeep just expresses them more cantankerously than you...)

Not that hard, really.


Just saying.............


Tom

Actually the dealer says that way can cause damage and voids our warranty, so that's the problem.

No worries though we know how it do it now.

Like that idea

[QUOTE=Wayne M;2579570]That will do you fine. Just some subtle differences. Remember that if the LCD screen is on the battery life is considerably diminished. I have the GoPro 3+ (jealous of the 4 - not really) and I picked up a different housing for it that allows me to keep it plugged into the DC receptacle.


There will be changed to ours I am sure. Hunter loves toys like this and so I see upgrades on the horizon ;-)

Marty, Dwayne has so many little men running around inside his head he never knows which one is going to step up and speak, or act.

Hunter and Dewayne,


Please accept my apologies, I should keep quiet. I am NOT a Jeep expert. Sorry about that.


Tom
