    With regards to the lights shown in the above picture the weak point on them is the electrical connection they are very bad for corroding so seal them up well with NYK electrical grease or dielectric grease, available at truck supply sources (in a pinch old fashioned vaseline also works well). The above lights as well as many of the ones shown in this link https://www.google.ca/search?hl=en&sugexp=les%3B&gs_rn=1&gs_ri=hp&cp=32&gs_id=2r&xhr=t&q=led+truck+truck+clearance+lights&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_qf.&bvm=bv.1355534169,d.aWc&bpcl=40096503&biw=1024&bih=600&wrapid=tljp1357487196576060&um=1&ie=UTF-8&tbm=isch&source=og&sa=N&tab=wi&ei=eZzpUO2VMYKwqQGVhIDwBQ can also be found at most any transport truck and/or trailer parts supplier's as well as most truck stops and are usually cheaper to aquir from these places than from some of the P/U and 4x4 custom shops.

    It was definitly a Pleasure to have Omer among us at the meet and eat. I hope we made him feel at home and that he enjoyed our company as much we enjoyed his. As swifty said Have a safe trip Home. It was great to sit down with all who were present to enjoy another group feed with good food. Thanks to Keri and her Table Top staff for a wonderfull meal.

    I think it will be interesting but I believe they will appeal most to nostaligia buff wanna be's and that element of individuals who will buy them simply because no one else currantly has one. After that the well of buyers will dry up and it will have to depend on performance, ridability, reliability and affordability.

    I went ahead and asked Ben for you and he agrees with Marcarl, its not that far.

    Hey Squid I just did the math If you are 1,600 miles away. Then traveling at 2,575 KM/H it should only take one hour to get here. I believe there is a one hour time differenc so leaving your home at 4:PM your time should get you here in time to listen to Carl's before dinner speech.
  17. saddlebum
    Time is drawing near and there appears to be enough interest so I am going to book the time for 6:00 PM. Sat Jan-05-2013. Please go to the Calendar http://www.venturerider.org/forum/calendar.php or this link http://venturerider.org/forum/calendar.php?do=getinfo&e=347&day=2013-1-5&c=1 and RSVP if you are thinking about coming so That I can get a reasonable head count for the reservations.
  18. saddlebum
    Ok , sounds like 8:00 PM is not too agreeable so how does everyone feel about 6:00 Pm.

    Huh:think: Which one is Daddy.

    I have been there and understand your concern. Hopefully things will be back to normal today.

    Happy New Year right back at ya ---and to the rest of the Venture Family as well. May it be great one ---Only downside is I will be hitting the big 60 come June:backinmyday: Until then-------I plan on spending lots of time with Marcarl so he can prepare me for this slippery slope since he has already spent a decade on it.

    If I had to buy a new helmet every time I dropped one I better start buying them by the case. If dropping a helmet from only 2 1/2 or even 4 feet renders it useless, I would have to ask just how protective would this helmet be in an actual collision. How much of this is ---A) to encourage continued helmet sales and--- B) just a means for company's to protect themselves from lawsuits. (The second being somewhat understandable since the majority of lawsuits are bogus money grabs.).

    Wew that was close .......I always get nervous when something that aint broke gets fixed.

    Very well put Fuzzy, though I must confess that though I was baptized and confirmed a Christian, my beliefs are not as strong as they probably should be. I tend to be one of those confused souls sitting on the fence, always unsure. I do however respect those who are strong believers as well as those who do not believe at all, as long as they both believe in Humanity and being Christian like towards Humanity. May we all respect each others outlook on life and may all have a great Happy and Prosperous NEW YEAR:group cheers:

    I havent set a fixed time as yet, I was hopping for some feed back re: the best time. At this point it is still open to feed back. I also am sure that the owner Kerri is somewhat flexible on closing time if we have a large enough group. I will make sure and follow up on this. However at this point I am not seeing much of a head count so whoever is intrested please post so I can have some idea of numbers. Using the idea of a fixed menu Kerri has put together the following dinner choices. Menu: Appetizers: Choice of (1): Mixed Greens Salad OR Caesar Salad Mains: Choice of (1): 1) Prime Rib 2) Chicken Cremona 3) Salmon Steak All above served with Roast Potatoes, Fresh Vegetables + Garlic Bread 4) Shrimp and Scallop Pasta in Rose Sauce Served with Garlic Bread. 5) Apple pie and Ice Cream for Dessert.
