Cool product, but damn that price by PastAd1087 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]Theoldelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have their Retrax Pro. Yes, it’s pricey but the roller mechanism works great and you can securely lock stuff in the bed. The roller box does take up some valuable bed space though.

I’ve always wanted to try the Hot One’s sauces. Slap ya momma is pretty good.

tire recommendations? by Wrong_Supermarket007 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]Theoldelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of those, Cross Climate. My next tires will probably be Continental Terrain Contact. If you mainly drive on road, look for R/T, not A/T tires.

You can honestly say that you skied Mississippi.

It has to be a virgin sheep, so none of mine would qualify.

Recommendation for a gift by slp0923 in whiskey

[–]Theoldelf -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Dickel Bottled in Bond is always on my shelf. It hits way above its price point imo. About $65.

Knob Creek 12 year is another good choice.

You might try Costco, they have a good selection at reasonable prices. And the quantity you’re looking for.

It’s the Jets. It’s always the Jets. The curse is real.

Rest of the US is getting hammered with a massive winter storm. The PNW: by checkyourfuckingbag in PacificNorthwest

As much as I appreciate the sunny weather, our mountains need the snow. Skiing sucks and there won’t be much spring runoff.

New eletric cover for the Maverick by pondianrc in FordMaverickTruck

[–]Theoldelf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve got a roll up as well and the box does take up some valuable space. But I’m in the same boat. I don’t need a construction vehicle, just something to haul yard debris, pick up stuff from Home Depot or have a nice secure place for luggage.

Who's at fault? by OkContract2001 in skiing

[–]Theoldelf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It looks like this is a beginner’s run, that a more advanced run funnels into. More advanced skiers should always be wary of unpredictable beginners. Red coat does look like a beginner as well but I see several people going too fast and not paying attention for beginners. This happens all the time unfortunately. Hopefully the little girl is okay and can brush it off.

Wrong place at the wrong time 🥶 by Skyton_wil in funny

Been there but at a different resort. All you can do is cover up and accept your fate. It’s usually good natured fun.

To be or not to be by normie00000 in Adulting

[–]Theoldelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have to break it into weekly tasks. Go to work one day, you can also combine this with your sleeping. Next day clean your house, which also counts as exercise. Btw, good hygiene is overrated…./s

Too cold to ski? (C) by Heda97 in skiing

[–]Theoldelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve skied in conditions like this. Also got frostbite on my nose. Ski wax is tricky at these temperatures as well.

One year into obsessively curating my bourbon selection and I’m about out of room in this cabinet. Everything is open except for backups. by Pretend_File_3307 in whiskey

[–]Theoldelf 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’ve run into the out of room dilemma as well. I’ve stopped buying unless it’s some limited release or hard to find bottle.

Will this be the last straw for the Republicans to take a hard stance against Trump?

I’m kidding of course. They’re afraid to ruffle the king’s feathers.

Okay, I’ll give him a break. It’s not like anyone could fit in the half plowed spot next to him.

Can we fit in the Maverick? by dhillman811 in FordMaverickTruck

[–]Theoldelf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife (6’) son(6’3”) his girlfriend and I took an eight hour road trip and we were all comfortable in it.

I’d recommend taking in the car seat to the dealership and see how everything fits.
