    Go DSLR or just get a better P&S?

    I'm really starting to enjoy taking pictures. The camera I use now (Fuji S700) is the first I have ever owned, and to put it lightly, is less than spectacular. There have been more than a few instances where I have taken a picture and thought, "Man, this would've been a sweet picture if it came...

    The shortcut home: Escalante

    I took a few days for myself after I passed my NREMT exam, as a celebration and a chance to finally relax and take my time to do whatever the hell I want. I went up to Colorado to visit a friend living in Copper Mountain, shared a 6 pack of Fat Tire and had a good night's sleep, then hit the...

    TCs: 242 vs. 231

    What makes the latter more desirable? I had people asking for the transfercase out of my old Cherokee, a 231, and I've been told it's a bummer that I have the 242 in my new one. Why does it matter? Is the ratio different?

    I found a camera... ?

    I was digging through the attic at my mother's house, and came across a camera. It's a Canon Rebel EOS 35mm. I know nothing about it, other than it's silver and it's an SLR. Should I start taking pictures, or is this camera worth a damn at all?

    Sedona 9/7/08

    Articulate and I took today and put it to good use by heading up to Sedona to check out Broken Arrow and Greasy Spoon. This was my "new" Jeep's first trip in the dirt! Due to my exhaustion and lack of imagination, there is no story for me to tell. Just look at the pictures. I'm sure Mark...

    255/70 R16

    According to my calculations, this is about the same size tire as a 31x10.50R15, only with a 16" wheel. If I were to get a 16" wheel, I would like to have as close to 31" tire as possible, since 245/75 R16 is a little smaller than I would like. Is anybody running this size? What brand, and...

    Thinking about a Tacoma...

    So I rolled my Jeep on Friday (Well, the OTHER guy ran the red light) and now I have to replace it. I've been drooling over the newer (2005+) Taco's for a while, and this is an excuse to act on buying one. What should I look for? What should I stay away from? What kind of problems do they...

    Day hike through Salome Jug

    A few friends and I went out to Salome Jug on Thursday, and it was a great trip to cool off and get a good hike in at the same time. Because we went on a weekday, we had the whole place to ourselves. It was a beautiful day spent outdoors with my friends. I can't ask for more than that...

    Can I bypass the relay?

    I bought a pair of Hella 700 driving lights, and can't seem to get it straight. I set it all up like the directions tell me to, but they won't turn on. I know I have power and good grounds, because when I bypass the relay, the lights turn right on. But when I plug the harness into the relay...
