New proposed hunt recommendations
Sky Island junkie replied to desertmafia21's topic in The Campfire
I know this isn’t exactly keeping on the topic of hunt recommendations but it honestly needs to be talked about. -

Yeah I get it. I live in the unit I’ve hunted whitetail my whole life and just get to see first hand how many cats are in an area and nobody’s hunting them. Even the houndsmen I know will catch a cat and pull the dogs off if it’s just a little 70lb female. They want the big toms. I get that too -

And there are two others that were half mile away and I didn’t drag them to the pile. Yeah e caller. I usually do a lot more but the last couple years I could only get out half dozen times -

This was a couple days worth within a mile of our house and didn’t make a dent. We very rarely see javelina anymore and Muley numbers are down. -

I’ve always been in favor of point restrictions too. But while we’re talking about things that’ll never happen, how about a bonus point for every 20 coyotes a hunter dumps at the doorstep of a g and f regional office and one bonus point for every lion. I helped a guy on a whitetail hunt this last year who said he wasn’t going to buy a lion tag! His explanation was they are so rare he didn’t think he could kill one. He never even saw a buck because the lions have taken out a lot of the deer! Meanwhile G and F is proud of their lion conservation efforts in our state -
I can’t stand the whole mess of them! I followed Charlie and that doesn’t mean I idolized him.But I did think a lot of him. Politics aside he was making progress amongst our young people through common sense, rational thinking and he was getting too close to making a change for the better. She’s a bitch all the way around!

No kidding? Is it a 1500? Just another sensor to fail! I’ve got a 2024 2500 that has a dipstick. Maybe a 2024-2025 change

Gotta be a crap ton of stories out there. Like 25 years ago my friends wife had a carwash/ oil change place changed her oil and the dumbazz installes a filter that was a lot longer than stock. When she turned out of the parking lot I think it was the Pittman arm tore off the end of the filter. She didn’t know there was a problem until the motor started clattering. They fought with the outfit and got nowhere

Did he get a new motor?

Years ago Midway changed the oil in a 2003 2500 and like I always did when I got home I double checked their work. When I popped the hood I noticed the filler cap was gone. Then I noticed the radiator shroud was cracked. The idiot never put the cap back on and left it on the shroud. Well needless to say it cost the dealer more than the oil change was worth to replace the shroud

Turners is awesome. The atmosphere somewhat reminds me of the old Arizona Sportsman. Bought a scope from them a couple months ago and the guy spent a lot of time with me. All around great counter guys

Really instills confidence!

Yeah for them to say oil changes will go up to $250 because the heavier viscosity is that much more is typical dealer BS. I don’t have anyone change fluids in my vehicles due to a bad experience with an inexperienced serviceman at a dealership and another time at a lube shop.
-
It’s their stupid fix to either bad crank bearings installed or poor machining of the cranks. There have been quite a few blow up in the last couple years. So they choose to change the oil to heavier viscosity. I think they’re doing some kind of test between the cam sensor and crank sensor to determine whether that particular motor has a problem. If in spec then this is their fix going forward. If out of spec I think the customer gets a new motor but I’m not positive about that

Yeah even his clone had an faulty flux capacitor
