Blueka's "Pickle" Registry....

[blueka]

I think the 35's are going to be sold tonight and I might be buying some 33's instead... I want to be able to drive it as much as poss and the 35's make it near impossible to turn the wheel...

Lol... I couldn't use them as they fouled on the frame, not the bodywork... sooo, the 35's are gone.. Sold them for more than 4x what I paid for them and got a brand new set of General Couragia M/T in 285 75 16 for less than I sold my part worn Toyos for......

Anyway, I took Pickle for a nice long ride tonight.. and the only real issue is the windshield keeps misting up, even with the heater on...

I've also got to align my halo headlights as I can't see a damn thing on lows... and not much more on highs either... good job I fitted those spotlights on the bull bars...

So today I got the new tires fitted and put on the Explorer... so here you go..

I still don't know what the fish is about...

I have grown to love that fish. I also have no idea what its meaning is. I have seen those before and always just thought it was a goof on the Catholic fish decal thing you see on mini vans. I did ask ChaCha and got no answer.

Edit:
Do you think it could be something like this?

Web page I got this picture from, they sell stuff: http://www.cafepress.ca/+fish-skeleton+bumper-stickers

Its a G Loomis decal for "Fear no fish". It's a fishing rod & tackle company logo.

Looks good Si! Almost ready to hit some trails with it. Can't wait to see some pics of it off road with some nice background.

Lookin great Simon. Good show!

 

[blueka]

Thanks guys... I'm certainly pleased with it... I can't wait to take it on some trails, maybe later today... nothing serious though, until I get a 4406....

Since I've had plates on Pickle, I've driven her nearly everyday... The gas mileage is really crappy... roughly 11-13mpg.. however... today, I discovered that there was a leak on the fuel filter... not sure why, but I managed to get it to stop so lets see if it improves any...

I've done some trails in her too, didn't get any pictures, but I can report that Pickle is a little mountain goat... I'm so impressed at where I've taken this truck and it has just crawled up everything I put in front of her....

Anyway, today Sarah took some pictures for me while we were out fishing...

And my favourite 2 pictures from today

Nice pictures Simon. Looks great, and I am sure it will be lots of fun.

Are your shoes dry yet?

Awesome pics!!! You need a nice Gloomis rod to go with your decal. You could have fished from the drivers seat!! I would love to see some pics of that

 

[blueka]

[blueka]

Yeah, I've not forgotten, I've just been out all day for the last 2 days until it's dark... but tomorrow for sure, I'll get some and measure it too
