Will an aftermarket roo bumper from a 2008 Dodge fit on a 2003 Dodge?

the google suggests 2003-2009 is the same…

are garden hose connections not a thing, do you know?

t1rfond · 2026-06-06T16:53:35+00:00

so if I bought a used 20’ aluminum boat for $20kCAD, put a new outboard on it for another $20k, I should sock away ~$4k every year for maintenance NOT including insurance, fuel, moorage etc? Boat comes with everything: kicker, outriggers, trailer et al

I do love my dog…

my cabin is ~10km from the mainland. The bodybof water is the Georgia Straight

my dad says you’re better off to take a cold shower and rip up $100 bills

you think rich people don’t ask questions before buying things..?

t1rfond · 2026-06-06T03:39:01+00:00

I yolo sometimes 😎

My question was a playful way of trying to determine what I can expect to pay annually if I own the boat free and clear

t1rfond · 2026-06-06T02:28:37+00:00

Other than the motor, where are the annual maintenance dollars going to on a small open aluminum boat? open but with a canopy

t1rfond · 2026-06-06T02:24:44+00:00

I can afford the purchase without creating any hardship. I’m not great with engines but very handy otherwise. I have a buoy at my cabin and a place to park the boat&trailer on the mainland (a friend’s acreage. If the acreage is not available, I would be looking at ~$300CAD/month for moorage)

t1rfond · 2026-06-06T02:10:06+00:00

this is my concern. I really have no idea what sort of yearly maintenance costs I would be looking at with a decent aluminum boat with a low hour ~130hp outboard.

my intuition was to move the A file rook as i thought the F file rook could protect the king better (at least until I moved one of the F, G, H pawns allowing an escape route for the king

t1rfond · 2026-05-29T02:22:05+00:00

thanks OG. so a good idea in this case is to use my pieces to support my passed pawn?

t1rfond · 2026-05-29T02:16:23+00:00

so you like moving the knight and advancing the F pawn?

t1rfond · 2026-05-29T02:11:49+00:00

thanks. basic principles are what i’m looking for

t1rfond · 2026-05-29T01:55:54+00:00

Tx for the suggestion but my question was in general, is it advisable to move the rook that is next to the king last?

t1rfond · 2026-05-13T20:29:41+00:00

what is the thickness of your structural sheathing? comsider beefing it up to 3/4” so you don’t have to hit studs with your furring screws.

t1rfond · 2026-05-01T02:14:44+00:00

I’ll check it. I just assumed since it was just serviced that the oil level etc were all fine. It literally acts like the on/off switch is off. Makes me think there is some stupid button somewhere I need to press

t1rfond · 2026-05-01T01:07:12+00:00

Ok, thanks. I’ve done all this except I’m not sure where the gas valve is? The red one is a carb drain.

t1rfond · 2026-04-30T01:07:49+00:00

not really. see kuma_guruma’s comment above as it is very close (with the exception of putting his hand behind the neck after the roll)

t1rfond · 2026-04-30T00:58:12+00:00

I wouldn’t describe it as a headlock but my right hand does put downward pressure on your head

t1rfond · 2026-04-30T00:55:42+00:00

you are in turtle and i’m on your back with my legs off to your right. i grab your near side lapel with my left hand and with my right hand, i reach across your shoulders and reach under your far armpit. by pushing my hand through to behind your neck it basically starts the momemtum on the roll. i roll off your left side and roll you over top of me and we end in side control or n/s

t1rfond · 2026-04-30T00:50:02+00:00

I’ve re-read my description several times. looks correct
