Anchorage isn't far enough north to lose the sun entirely, but there have been plenty of days when that didn't really matter since it was dark when I left the house and dark when I got home, after spending the rest of the day indoors. The dark bothers some people more than others. It never really affects me much (I am a grouch year round) but the cold, on the other hand... It is slowly but surely warming up here. The main roads are pretty much clear of frozen stuff and I could probably drive my 2wd pickup again if I wanted to get it filthy. The Jeep is already filthy and needs a new windshield so the truck will stay in the driveway (unless I need it) until everything dries out. Of course, we could still get nailed in March and possibly into April so I haven't put the shovel away yet. ---------------------------------------------------- Del Rawlins- del@_kills_spammers_rawlinsbrothers.org Remove _kills_spammers_ to reply via email.

I'd like a little taller tire but at the time I just didn't want to open that can of worms on a new vehicle. What I would *like* to do when I upgrade, is install a custom built D44 rear axle with the sensors for my ABS, regear to 4.11, add a Tera 2T or OME lift, and install LT235/85R16 MT/Rs on 16" rims. That will give me about a 32x9.25. A detroit electrac would be nice too. That's some big bucks and it would go a long way towards my airplane project so I have to decide if it is worth it or not. I figure I can get through at least one more winter before I have to make a decision one way or the other. Barring any unforseen changes to my driving routine my current tires won't be worn out at that point but I like to have a little bit of margin in the winter. ---------------------------------------------------- Del Rawlins- del@_kills_spammers_rawlinsbrothers.org Remove _kills_spammers_ to reply via email.
