Really? My YouTube channel got hacked and shut down a few years ago so all my old videos went with it. Where did you see it?

Year: 2008 Model: Pathfinder 5.6L V8 LE Drive train: 4X4 + Auto4x4(AWD) Transmission: 5-Speed Automatic Mileage: Purchased in 2021 @ 230'000kms. Currently at 271'000kms Color: Super Black Tire Size: 285/70r18 (RT) & 265/65r18 (WT) Location: Ontario/Quebec, Canada Modifications: Performance: -...

With the rear suspension issue, it was the kick in the butt I needed to get that sorted out. With new airlines on the way, I did have the other pieces of the puzzle around since spring. I had a Supreme Suspensions 3" spacer to replace the 2", and I got some midly used Mevotech HD springs that...

The RTT stayed on the truck for several weeks in case potential buyers wanted to take a proper look at it. The trailer would get some modifications to accomodate the new tent as the cover rested on the back of the changeroom arm with it's bolts poking into it. Not a good way to start. The...

Next step is back to the trailer, or more specifically, the RTT. The girlfriend had a rebate this year on items for outdoor activities, which included camping and tents, so this was a good opertunity to replace my aging tent from 2008. I've been hesitant on replacing it as I find the material...

The next day we had plans to meet up with the girlfriend's cousin at her 2nd cousin’s new cottage. Fred would follow me for a while. We followed the country roads to eventually stop at a Canadian Tire to get some parts in case the camping pot didn't hold. We then kept going but split once we got...

So it's been a while since I posted here, but I've sadly also had to change trucks. My Xterra's frame was badly rotten and I patched it up the best to could until find a replacement. The plan was another 2002-2004 Xterra but I couldn't find a clean (yellow manual) one, which only got worse...

I had dropped off the truck but the time it took to get them installed was longer then expected. I had an off-road outing with some local Nissan guys that would be the perfect time to test the lockers as it was stock friendly with challenging offshoots and would be the first real trail I'd hit...

The plans on that trip to join the sister-in-law had partially fell apart. The cottage in the pourvoirie, or outfitter, they were staying at basically gave us F-off prices for camping and fishing there if we weren't renting. What Fred knew is that our ZEC and their Outfitter shared the same...

Checking the tent it when I noticed that that mice had gotten in and eaten the rain fly. I did my best to clean up the smell of mice urine on the canvas and tried to patch up the fly with tarp tape and 3M glue, but that's the best I can do days before heading out. Now that all the major prep is...

So after all these updates will I get to work on the trailer? Yes, but one more thing. We have our annual fishing trip but it got mixed up with budget and participation issues. As the brother-in-law normally not only organizes it, but normally does two back to back, one with his girlfriend (the...

So how to 2024, which is already almost done. The truck got more mods, but the trailer finally got some love as well. I had recently discovered that switchback LED fog lights exist through a post in a Frontier group. I had immediately ordered a set. While I don’t like yellow fog lights I find...

With summer officially coming to an end, summer decided to show itself. Seriously, September and October were the better of the weather of the year! I was feeling better, technically was planning on starting to look and to apply for some jobs but I couldn't let this weather pass by. What I...

Once back from Mosport and feeling a bit better, I put the truck to the side to work on the Mazda2. The spare tire well has rusted away. I had gotten a clean one from a friend who had gotten t-boned in his early in the year and the trunk was mint. I wanted to get this done before it was...

2023 was another story. I had gotten really sick and wasn't feeling well. Without going into too many details, I had become anemic. I had started to go back to the gym in January but I was feeling more and more tired as the weeks went on. I was dizzy, tired, felt like the world was vibrating and...

2022 was the year I concentrated at getting the front landscaping done on the house and literally spent all summer, from May to September, working on it and the truck doing it`s duty to haul material. I did a few mods on the truck which was making a rack out of extreuded aluminum to mount my...

So it`s been a while, and things have changed, but not so much either at the same time considering the last of time that`s gone by. With the Xterra time counting down time was spent shopping for a replacement, and of course this ha happening during the pandemic. The plan was to get another...
