Ok, was just kicking around some ideas in my
Head. I want to add tow hooks to my Highboy... wondered if I could rob them off my f150 when it bites the dust. I like how our trucks are full hoops and not literal hooks. Although I haven't looked close enough at the super duty to see if they have hooks or hoops.

Yea, Kinetic makes good ones well, up to 2" in diameter. Not that you would ever need one that size unless you were daisy chaining up a cliff lol. A 7/8 or 1" would be cool to have around though.

Brew - It gets better. I thought it was pretty good.

2100 - Let me know if you need a set of hooks sooner than later. I think I still have a nice set here.

Snow finally started here around 10:00 this evening. (Was supposed to begin around 6.) The weather folks are saying 6-10" now through Wednesday. Low is supposed to be -2 Wed night. Hey! It's only October!!!

Yep, it stuck. I've got light snow on the patio in the back yard. It is supposed to pick up again on Tuesday night - the night I am going to SLC to see GNR. Hopefully it doesn't mess up my commute, and probably a good idea to take the F150 that night.

GNR ehh, that should be good. You get good seats?

Seems like you and Ohio are getting snow early this season. Well, at least you are.

Not too sure if they are good... my Brother got them. They cost me 244 bucks for 2 seats, so I sure hope they are good, LOL.

Yeah, it's definitely early this year. Tuesday is supposed to be a record low for October in Utah. Single digit night at 8 degrees.
