here's the picture.... i had just gotten off work at about 1230am. its a nice cool summer night, one of those windows down enjoy the cool air type nights... i am driving home, but my ipod had died earlier in the day so the stereo was off... i heard more pops, clinks, clops, clangs, dings, wizzzs and even a couple zhhhzhhhh's coming from both the front and rear end of my truck..... Lesson learned, ALWAYS HAVE MUSIC LOUD ENOUGH TO COVER THE SOUNDS OF A TRUCK'S ISSUES.......

 

 

 

yep thats what i do

 

my stereo's been broke for a long time so i definitely know what's going on and it irks me loins....

 

What's a stereo?

 

ya seriously, it kills me when i see people blasting music and flying down trails with their full-sized american monstertrucks. listen to your vehicle. and nature. that's why we get off the pavement right?

 

Sevendust Rocks!

 

true. I like hearing the songbirds and especially when i hear the mourning dove. I don't know what it is about that bird, but they sound good. No creaks or groans from my truck at this time, it's too covered in mud underneath so i think that suppresses it, he he. I do enjoy the wildlife though. I usually haul my mountain bike around with me so later I can go through all the same terrain on it. It is fun.

 

Save's gas as well on a mountain bike. For Fuel bike-wise, you need to eat a lot! Forget dirtbikes, i find bicycles much more challenging.

 

I'm still trying to figure a good place to pack mine (bike) where it won't hinder access, or fall on my kids' heads, and won't die if I roll (no roof rides)... but first I gotta get the truck running!!!!!

And yes, Sevendust does rock!!!! usually play it low on the trail tho... I'm intent on what my vehicle is telling me... call it a bit of ocd, but I am always bugged by the little creaks and squeeks unless I know where they're coming from, and what they're telling me.

 

I don't have many creaks on my tacoma, unless i go off a three foot drop and my bed buckles against my cab. But then it's not a creak, its more of a crash.

 

i got to see 'em live n' local! it was sick!!!

 

thanks to my isr mod, sometimes i turn the music down to listen to the roar (well, very angry buzz) of the engine...
