Nothing you can't get from other MNVOs who likely don't make it a standard business practice to sell your call logs. $20 a month, free talk and text, plus $10 for each GB is inherently inferior to the following Tracfone plans, for example: $20/mo for talk and text plus one GB, unlimited carryove

Spend some bucks with a skilled gun fitter to get the stock set so it "fits you", Now that I see the right link, I see it has screw in choke system, EXCELLENT, so spend a few more bucks and pick up every choke they make, doubles if you are doing sporting clays with it... so both barrels a

I have the wrenches and feeler gauges, and a bunch of nitrile gloves. I never got rid of them since I knew that I would eventually own another Mercedes Diesel. All of my spare fuel filters and MB Diesel items that I bought for the last 1977 pea green 240D are in a plastic toolbox on the bottom s

Well the sea is rising around here, but it started happening before Trump, so there's that... It's actually due to a very slight slowdown of the Gulf Stream, you can do the homework on why that has happened... --FT On 8/30/19 10:40 AM, Meade Dillon via Mercedes wrote: Glad you're part of it

Harbor Freight sells one set of wrenches that are really thin. I wouldn't use them for removing brake parts but they work really well for stuff like this. -Curt On Friday, August 30, 2019, 9:50:24 AM EDT, Curley McLain via Mercedes wrote: When you are "done" go through and check every

Re: [MBZ] Batten down those Benzes in Flahdah

7.4' high tide last night, 7.6' tonight, 8.2' on the Peninsula (Charleston).  New moon perigean high tides  Last night there were lots of streets flooded in town, will be worse tonight.  Latest models showing 20+" rainfall predictions for the coast and here, we will still be in higher tide mode

Re: [MBZ] Back In The Saddle...

When you are "done" go through and check every clearance again.  If you find one "out," repeat as necessary until all are good.   Not hard.  You just need one thin 14mm open end and one standard open end.   While the special tools may be nice, they are 100% unnecessary. Kevin Kraly via Mercede

I'm kind of glad, if it was on sale for all gauges I'd probably have to get 2, I agree with you on the .410... Heh, I just remembered that dad gave me a 20ga folding single shot. Kahn is the brand. I've never shot it, he got it at an auction for like $50. I thought it'd make a good truck gun in

King tides are occurring this week, making things even worse with the hurricane. Most people don’t understand that the majority of the damage from hurricanes isn’t from the wind, but from the water in the forms of rain, flooding and storm surge. -D Hatches ready to be battened > On Aug 30, 201

Yeah and likely coming up and over us mid week with some wind and probably lots of rain. My buddy and I are going out this weekend to deploy our water monitoring gear to get some good data from a large storm event. We have 4 probes to place. Last night I was coming home over the bridge at sun
