I really need to get back to going to the gym. Last summer I went religiously and had a max leg press of 800lbs, bench of 295lbs, 60lbs dumbbell curls. No idea what I am at now but I want to beat those numbers.

I knew he was asking way too much, I asked him the price and was kind of expecting like 6-7K... not 10 lol

That v6stang kid makes me wish I wasn't associated with the mustang community.

jpalamar · 04-20-2012, 10:55 AM

He could own any car and would still be a tool.

i cant wait to get out of here today. Going home and going through the bottle collection for a couple beers, and then heading to the cigar shop to watch the game.

jpalamar · 04-20-2012, 03:25 PM

35 minutes for me.

HickRocket1258 · 04-20-2012, 04:06 PM

I got 2 hours but if someone leaves early enough, I'm not far behind.

piku · 04-21-2012, 03:55 PM

What's this work thing you guys keep talking about?

HickRocket1258 · 04-23-2012, 08:56 AM

Well the tuner should be getting the new o-rings in for the injectors and then I think putting it on the dyno? I'm thinking in the 310-320 range maybe.

russiankid · 04-23-2012, 08:58 AM

Bought my first pistol, wooh!

jpalamar · 04-23-2012, 09:46 AM

Can't wait until 4. No motivation.

**Big_Jim** · 04-23-2012, 10:05 AM

I'm curious to know of some good grills too. I'm getting one shortly but can't afford a Weber I think unless I just haven't looked hard enough.

Julie and I were at Lowes this weekend. Of course I can't ever walk through without checking out the grills. I was very impressed with how this one felt for the price. I actually was considering buying it rather then spending $400 on new burners and igniters for my grill.

Things I like about this one is that it was lighted, the burner quality looked fairly decent but not as good as my Weber, the lid felt nicely insulated. Had a slight feeling of it being a bit too much features for the price. Maybe cheap construction bit I didn't notice it? but its hard to rate since I've so used to seeing a $2000+ grill daily. Def one I would Google for review on.

I currently have a Weber Summit Platinum D6. Its discontinued by now. Its great but it is overkill. All the bells of its time... smoker, rotisserie that I haven't even used yet, IR to sear, side burner, ect. My only complaint is I wish it could get hotter quicker but even that’s not a big deal. It is by far the best built grill I have ever owned. Its about 6 years old, I rarely cover it, ect... and its still solid with no rust. The lid is very well insulated and keeps the heat in and I can set the temps on it very easily. No real hotspots so it cooks evenly. Rarely flames up also. Big grills also rape the gas tanks. I get about 3 weeks on mine but I also use it 3 days a week, sometimes twice a day on weekends.

One thing to know about Weber is that they are not all good. They do sell cheap junk but you can see that when you look at the price. They usually have ceramic coated cast grates rather then the stainless ones. Stainless is words better to clean, will last forever, and my food sticks to it much less.

I know there are other grills that are good as well, just don’t know too much about them. There are really good reviews you can find online but one thing I have noticed is the difference between the sub $500 and the above $500. Its def work looking in the $500+ price range. They just seem like they will last 10 years instead of 5.

I had a hard time finding a really small grill that was a high quality though. Atleast, thats how it felt at the retail level.
