    Sleeping solution? Maybe!

    So I've been busy coming up with this idea trying to figure out how to make it work and then spent the whole day yesterday building it with a friend of mine that my wife kindly reminded me that today was our 22nd anniversary.

    Sleeping solution? Maybe!

    No, it ends at the lift gate. Flips down in the front only. I would have made it so I flipped down both seats. The driver seat is broken and doesn't move forward.

    Sleeping solution? Maybe!

    We've been mostly sleeping in the front seats every now and then we'd have a tent that we try out. Just added another 2 in memory foam topper for total of 4 in which is so much more comfortable. The dogs just love it.

    Sleeping solution? Maybe!

    It doesn't look like much room in the picture but we all slept pretty well, I will be adding another 2 inch topper for extra padding but so happy we can finally stretch out while sleeping.  :D

    The dogs haven't been up there I just got back by from getting memory foam. But they were pretty anxious to go check it out. They're definitely going to love being able to sleep next to us again. The added weight from build of the bed is less than 150 lbs

    Good price on a 'B' Craigslilst

    I bought a Chevy blazer without having a shop inspection since I got it from a dealership and later found out it was a flood recovery vehicle. Had nothing but problems with it and took it back to where I bought it which went against my credit. Always take a vehicle in for inspection before purchase.

    Sleeping solution? Maybe!

    Got the side back windows covered in reflectix. Using gorilla tape to put it up and will be covering the rear window as well when I get more tape tomorrow. Also going to start with the build tomorrow. Will be taking pictures and videos of the progress.

    Keeping it legal.

    When I get pulled over with the cop will come up ask me for my license registration insurance when I give it to him then he'd start asking questions and I just tell him I don't answer questions. It's your fifth amendment right not to talk to him you don't have to be under arrest to get exercise...

    Sleeping solution? Maybe!

    I've been brainstorming since I'm back at my home base and looking in the back of the bronco which as you may know is kind of short for me to sleep in but I may have come up with a solution. I talked to a construction buddy of mine and we're going to attempt a build out. And not to worry I'll...

    Ethanol gas vs non-ethanol gas?

    I have not noticed any changes in my mileage or engine performance in my 88 bronco 2 when using either type of gas.

    Share one weird/odd/unusual thing about yourself

    When I get a call from a teller marketer I interrupt them and tell him about the Church of the pastafarian and the Flying Spaghetti monster. After which I asked them if they'd like to become a member and they'll say no at which point I'll say well thank you for your time and hang up.

    Should I fix it?

    I'm familiar with rock bottom I've ordered from them before however my rear drive line had a CV joint built into it which they don't make anymore. I've done junk yards with my dad since I was like seven and I do plan on stopping up with this junkyard outside of Vegas that supposedly has parts...

    Should I fix it?

    This truck has deep sentinel value to me and I plan on making any repairs no matter the costs to keep it on the road, however I am looking into getting another vehicle (a van) within the next year and building it out after making it mechanically sound.
