    The rise of FAFO parenting: is this the end of gentle child rearing?

    It is nice to be the recipient of comments and compliments like that. I have four nieces and nephews and would be surprised if my sister and BIL received the same about their kids.... 😶

    The rise of FAFO parenting: is this the end of gentle child rearing?

    Man it is tough raising kids. I am 38 and only 13 years into being a parent - my youngest will be 8 soon. I don't whoop my kids, but they get/got "popped" on the butt (or whatever tender spot is available) from time to time, to remind them to straighten up when they start acting ugly. It took a...

    Small crane truck in S. PHX area.

    Yeaaa, you'd be fine. More so when the operator got out to my house is when the Español came in to play.

    Small crane truck in S. PHX area.

    I used Rapido to set an AC unit on my house last summer. They were great - it helps to know Spanish. This was on a Saturday and thats the only reason I did not use my buddies down at Shaffers Welding. They are close to your shop (and mine) but I don't know where your house is. They would...

    Has anyone here ever purchased private farm raised meat, poultry, and/or pork?

    I second (3rd? 4th? 10th) Fort Rock. It is the only beef and bacon we eat. Just got a 1/4 last week from those two! Our needs vary every year (1/4-full) but we are ways happy to buy and eat their meat!

    Old School rails? Anyone use them anymore?

    I want an old school rail so bad. Two reasons - I grew up seeing them and riding in a couple. Reason number 2 is because Im broke and can't wrap my head around $20k+ for a sand car. If I came across a good 4 seater at the right price though, I would have a hard time passing on it.

    Park Like a Douche

    To be fair, you have to always give yourself an out. Cant count on anyone to park with you in mind. You likely know this [now] but take the time to back the trailer in to curb next time haha

    Ranger has crazy high idle

    Cheap parts + over tight is my guess. I got two more - if they do the same I suppose I need to look into it a bit more.

    Budget boot is already tearing, so I have ordered two more :LOL: Next up are rear the cv boots - just have to find the correct parts.

    Ranger has crazy high idle

    DM me the details. I am not in a spot to do that just yet, but if we keep this thing long term I would like to have an idea of what that would take. Little back story - a buddy of mine gave me this thing last year for helping him with some railing at his house. He was ready to upgrade to a...

    Ranger has crazy high idle

    It did! Installed the boot and then left for ID shortly after and didn't get any time to update the thread - thank you for checking in though. Next step is looking into rebuilding the shocks. Is that worth it on these old things? Mine is a 2007 three seater
