North West BS Thread

Gonna have to try this. Nothing stuck...but it was shit weather all day. Strong winds all night, then every form of precipitation all day today.

 

Same here just didn’t want to shovel more snow when I got home.

 

Good thing about the rain is that it has washed out most of the snow.
Bad thing about that is the potential for flooding: wet snow + a saturated subgrade + rain = massive run off.

I strapped down the propane tank today.
If the Nehalem river starts to cross the highway I will move our trucks & mower up to my neighbor’s place that has higher ground

 

Basically the same size I'm going with - 275/60/20, good size without pushing too much rubber.

 

Yeah, I think those translate into the same overall size basically, just different rims. My speedometer is about 2mph fast on the stock tires, so it should be nearly perfect with the new size.

 

Same.
Thankfully, after yesterday, it's close to that at my house.

 

That's one scary thing about where your house sits. You are quite a ways up off the creek (river?) there, but that's still probably within the realm of possibility.

The Toyota dealer in Longview put this exact bumper (with the bar) on three different 2020 TRD Pros without any issues on the sensor.

 

With that storm that blew in, we got 2.2 inches in about 12 hours in my backyard. It was coming straight down for a few hours.

 

That’s the SSO solution, not the Warn. Hoping to figure out if the Warn bumper with the bar will work with the TSS

 

Right. Was just saying I know the SSO one will.

 

Yep. Thx. I’m leaning towards the Warn because it can take a 12k winch. Victory and SSO are limited to 10k.

 

Looks like I'm in for some serious snow tonight. Reports anywhere from 6" to 18"!

 

Wow; that's a big difference between 6 and 18 inches!

It just started snowing here about an hour ago, but my weather app is saying only 1" to 3".

 

My son rear ended someone and his front end needs repair ('09 Civic Si). He probably needs a radiator (it's leaking somewhere) and it would be nice if the shop could determine if there was any damage to the engine from coolant loss. He will certainly need a new front bumper, some fender work, a headlight, and paint, too. Our insurance has suggested Caliber, Fix Auto, and Gerber, but we don't know much about any of them. And while we aren't wed to a westside PDX shop only, it would be convenient.

Anybody have a shop they can recommend?

 

At least he's ok.

 

Hopefully he wasn't hurt

 

Oh he's fine. It was just a little fender bender in some stop/go traffic on I5. We just need the Civic repaired so he can stop using the wife's Sienna to go to work.

 

I know right!
Meteorology, easiest career out there!

Got a pic of the truck?

 

Yessir! Just bought and awaiting delivery to me. Also throwing in some pics of my old mans tundra since my build will need to keep up with him on our Baja trips lol

 

Hey yo! How did I not know this thread existed. Been wondering who was up in my neck of the woods on here.

 

Awesome trucks! Love that trailer

 

Same immediate area. I'm out in Hayden.

 

Yo! Why didn't I ever think to tag you in this thread.

 

Thanks! Yea the turtle back is sweet definitely a lot of work to setup but I think worth it. He’s over the setup lol might sell it.
