Need to consult with BC Kootenay Doukhobors about best culinary practices with honeys. Boiled, peeled, then fried is what I remember. I was a young resource tech hearing a Douk classmate saying they were choice edible on a field session, and without waiting to hear the rest of her story, popped one...

Loading the bed helps with the balance, but the added weight to make...

Dude. This is the truck tire thread, those are car tires. If it doesn’t come in a LT version, then piss off to that other tire thread....

LT3’s with studs on the big truck. Hate the studs on dry pavement, love them when the roads gets that 1” glaze of compact snow and ice, especially from graders and heavy industrial traffic. The full size is the family highway tripper, so the added piece of mind works for me. The car doesn’t get...
