    Of course it does. Well, I mean...pineapples have spikes too, so when they're in AZ, they identify as cacti, but they're cooler. That's where they got the name; Cactus but Cooler. Then the 'but' fell off...

    I've still got some prickly pear syrup. It was good mixed with lemonade & vodka, and lemon flavored vodka. And regular vodka. And regular lemonade.

    before I can imagine seeing the actual light ouput, I see the cover coming off and all the batteries spilling out due to trail vibration. From what I've heard, dust wont be too bad there. Chase lights are more necessary for the desert dust. I wouldn't worry too much about it

    Um. How have you not discovered this? Remember, this truck identifies as a Best gen when with Best gens so it's totally appropriate to check out his build thread. You'll enjoy seeing the antics. #truckflop

    Apparently the name came from the Flintstone's "Cactus Coola"

    But I think they were playing on cool cola not cooler

    Checking that all is prepped for T2S. Picked up the generator and put it up on the work bench (yes, I fucked my back up), changed the oil, gave it the once over and filled with fresh gas. Started it up to make sure the battery was good to go and the remote start was still working. Also, busted out a can of Wally World engine degreaser to clean up my WDH. Dried and wiped it, re-greased the contact points.
    Will pick up the trailer from storage next weekend, plug it in to charge batteries and get the fridge going. Then load it up and head out.

    My mistake, you are correct. It was the OG Playstation. Just remembered it was a disc, not a cartridge. That should give you an idea how much of a video game nerd I wasn't. I spent 80% of my free time as a juvenile on my skateboards and bicycles, another 20% was tinkerin on shit, and the other 20% was causin trouble. Yes I am 120%

    I just looked up Eeges. Looks fun. What other cultural/local favorites is AZ known for?
    Obviously if y'all came to TX we'd tell yall to check out What-A-Burger, Dr. Pepper, Big Red, kolaches, pecan pie, BBQ, sweet tea, tamales, horchata and more Tex-Mex.

    I'm alsot curious if anyone knows and can recommend cultural/local favorites from NM. This is my first time leaving the state of TX in two decades, I want to tourist it up everytime I walk into the convince store

    Nice. They don't sell it in stores here and until the last few years you could sometimes find it at restaurants. If you see it, bring me some!

    edit: According to their website, Publix in Tennessee might carry it.
