I don’t buy to resell, again PRICE…the value on a Toyota is LESS than the value on a Ford or Gm .
I sell most of mine to private owners and have always been more than happy with the prices paid
I just sold a 4 yr old 67,000 truck for what I paid for it ..
Im more than pleased with that !
When did you sell your truck?

My King Ranch was the nicest trimmed truck I’ve been in , and I’ve been in most of them.
Even had massaging seats !!
Ram has really increased their interiors but the King Ranch was still a much nicer leather, layout etc as far as I’m concerned .
Toyota doesn’t even come close in that category ..too much plastic and cheap feel..
Again that’s my opinion
I've never seen a King Ranch, so ill have to take your word for it. But among the lower trims, ram is better than the rest. I believe King Ranch is the highest trim available?

Very cool and I agree with the purchasing from the CMP. Unfortunately a lot of the rifle availability has dwindled. I may try and make a drive to camp perry this summer and make one last rifle purchase before they dry up.
As far as German Lugers go they are a beautiful gun but no where near as reliable as a 1911
Also If you ever want to sell anything from your collection please reach out to me. I’m always in the market
Sent from my iPhone using TapatalkI need to get on that before they dry up as well! I always wanted a ww2 Garand

I’m a tier one supplier to Ford , Gm and Chrysler , back in the 90s I remember we couldn’t park a foreign vehicle in the main parking lot
Its a global economy now
Yea I like my vehicles plush because my butt is that seat for hours every day.
Things changed a lot in 30 years. Companies that were once great are a shadow of what they were in the 90's. Ford has still remained good, but the others I would beg to differ at this point. I think Toyota has caught up fairly well with the luxury aspect, but still slightly behind ford. Ram takes the cake on luxury in a truck.

Those “ biggest in the world “ numbers are mainly overseas numbers so that makes sense .
I always thought it was the same reason Dollar Stores do so well , people like cheap
Im sticking with what has worked for me, I’m sure you will do the same !
Cheers !
Agree to disagree on the cheap part of it though. I find it hard to use cheap with a company well known to be the most reliable company in the world, when talking about their cars as a whole.

Again drive what you like , I have had zero reliability issues with Ford or Gm .
I put a lot of miles on my vehicles , oil changes every 5000 miles . All the foreign “ trucks” seem small and cheap.
I still remember seeing the stacks of Toyota rotted out frames with the 4 billion dollar recall .
They just seem cheaply made and small compared to a full size American truck.
But if YOU are happy that’s really all that matters
I agree, drive what you like and what makes you happy. Just a friendly conversation here, that's all. Changing oil and filters regularly definitely helps with every companies reliability.
For sure, Toyota had its share of issues early on with rotting frames, but I think they've gone way past that. They were definitely behind on the luxury aspect of trucks and it did feel cheaply made on the inside, but they also had a reputation for being built like tanks. No company is perfect, they all have their issues. I do believe the Toyotas are slightly smaller than the American truck companies, but I'm not sure by how much.

I don’t get the attraction to the Toyota’s .
To me they seems cheap and flimsy , interior and exterior ..Ford , Chevy and Dodge in that order for me
Like everyone else said, Its the reliability that wins me over every time. I have 230,000 miles on my current Toyota, so I'm hoping to replicate that with the truck. Ford is the best American truck company IMO, but still pales in comparison to Toyota when it comes to reliability. Toyota is behind with technology as usual, but that doesn't bother me that much. Id never own a Chevy or Ram outside of a lease. There's a reason Toyota is the biggest car company in the world and they keep their value

Congrats on the new truck! I've been having a hell of a time getting a test drive for the Tundra. If I was leasing, I would get a Ram for sure. Since I want to buy, I want to get the Tundra.

I brown mine like crappy mentioned and finish in a stew. Easily my favorite cut of meat after back strap. For stew, there is no greater cut of meat for me. After a couple hours on the pot, all the connective tissue breaks down and becomes very tender. I suggest trying it again. If you really don't like them, you can always give them to the dogs

Are you a Dr. AT? You,Cynthia +I will have to do a Spring Turkey Scout perhaps. Now don't square me up with a 30 year old BBJ Blackbelt. I am older then the Hills. I need someone at least 55. I can work with a 7 year disadvantage.
Light hearted above. I am known for my Dry Humor. Comes off good in person- but countless on the internet want to fling Darts at my face- LOL!
I'm always game for some hunting!

Do you fight MMA the nights before performing 16-hour brain surgeries? Ever get the shakes?

The shakes is for rookies! Side note I’ll probably be there later in the night unfortunately

My friend decided not to press charges so I’m not sure if the DEC decided to give tickets of his own

Update on the guy that stole my friends deer. I sent the DEC officer pins of where the gut pile was, and he was able to find it. I haven't heard the whole story yet, but the guy basically admitted that he took the deer. His story was that he shot a deer, gutted it and thought that was his deer so he took it. Obviously its a complete lie. He knew he missed those deer he shot at and he found a deer that was gutted and had a drag rope attached to it

how did they know who it was?
We knew where the guy was parked. You have to have a reservation to hunt during the shotgun season, so his name is at the check station

Congrats on multiple successes.
If theft is an issue, next time cut deer tongue in a zigzag pattern before hanging. Fastestt way to match and prove its yours with DEC
I’ll have to remember that for the future. DEC found the gut pile and is taking a piece of it I assume

What a loser. Hope they catch him.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk ProThey know where the deer is. Guy didnt get a chance to butcher it before the DEC showed up. This deer has a muzzleloader shot to the right shoulder with no pass through. This guy was using a 12 gauge so there's no way to confuse the size between the two.

Thank you I was thinking about trying there or cranberry. Figured it would be tough now. I’ll be sure to let you know how it goes.
Cranberry is very tough. Guy who lives across the street hunts every day with his english pointer and knows when birds are stocked. He also brings friends and someone told me people pay him to take them out. I would hit stewart

That’s crazy. Where did he steal it from? Hanging in someone’s yard?
In the 70’s stealing deer from Catskills hotels meat poles was common. My dad said if you got a good one you stayed out there all night to make sure nobody snatched it.
Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk ProSo we drive the hell out of the property so when we shoot one we hang it in the woods and swing back to pick it up later. Done that for years and years and no one ever took any deer. This guy took it from a tree we had it hanging on, in the property. Usually cause you have to register every deer you shoot there with the check station

Interesting last couple days for me. Sunday started our shotgun season here on Long Island. We were able to get reservations for sunday and today to hunt. To make the story short, I ended up shooting 2 deer yesterday with my muzzleloader and I got 1 deer today. my friend got one last night and shot 4 today. Another friend of mine got one tiny doe and a giant half rack buck. it was one of the bucks i was chasing. 4 1/2 year old deer from what the DEC biologist said. Shame it didnt have the full rack cause it was one hell of a deer. All in all we get 3 yesterday and 8 today. Unfortunately someone stole one of our deer. DEC located the guy and now were going though the lengthily process of proving this is our deer and he stole it. DEC is going to take a sample of the gut pile and match its DNA. POS this guy is to steal an already gutted and hanging deer

Kind of an unfair comparison if you ask me. Right now used cars are selling for higher than they ever have, but even then value is subjective as we were mentioning before. I believe Toyota is the best value of all, but that's just me.
