    What to do with cash right now?

    Been wondering this and figured this group will have some good insight. Between saving and refinancing a couple years ago, we saved up enough for a DP on a house without having to sell our current house. We live in Lehi, my office is in AF, and our kids go to school in Provo, so the idea was...

    Helicoil tips?

    I need to get our roofing panel trailer fixed asap. My guy replaced the spark plug and completely stripped the threads out of the head on a 13 horse Honda engine. Repair shops are out weeks to even look at it. I can order a new head but nobody can put it in any time soon. One guy told me...

    Who would y'all recommend for some body and paint work? I'm nudging my dad to get out his 64.5 mustang and I told him I'd help pay for some of the work it needs, so he is getting excited. We don't need a perfect showroom job but don't necessarily need the cheapest backyard guy either. We are...

    I got a car. Anybody wanna go drive?

    I picked up a for-fun car in January and its finally great driving weather. Who else has a car that's fun for cruising, and would want to go on some drives this summer? I'm thinking after work until dark-ish.

    Plumber needed

    I'm finishing my basement and need a plumber to rig up a bathroom and mini-kitchen. The kitchen backs up to the bathroom wall which is also next to the utility room so it should be pretty straight forward for somebody who knows what they're doing. The hardest part will be cutting the concrete...

    So, this trailer followed me home today. It's a mig Apex XCT tent trailer. They first made them to pull behind sxs's and then made this model for pulling behind cars and small SUV's.

    How does your off-road trailer tow? Affect power/mileage? Specifically 3.8L JKU....

    Hey all, quick question for those of you who have pulled an off-road trailer. I have an '09 JKU on 37's w/ 5.38's. It actually does great on the freeway. I can cruise between 65 and 80 from here to St. George or Moab and get 16-17.5 mpg's. My question is how much would an 800-900 lb...

    Who does boating? The hobby conundrum......

    OK, so I'll start by saying that I'm just "thinking out loud" here and looking for opinions/ideas from y'all. We have done some boating with friends the last couple years and really liked it, and we've casually talked about getting a boat but there is no way I can add it to my fleet of hobbies...

    Hey all, I just purchased a 2019 F250 in the gasser flavor.

    BFG km3's on an F250?

    I picked up an F250 and am looking at putting 35x12.50's on it. (On 20x9 wheels) Found some km3's for a good deal, e-rated. Would these be a good tire on a full size truck? I know they wont last like an A/T but are they a softer compound geared towards off-roading more so than heavier truck use...
