Thank you for the tire information Silverado! Right now my son is driving from Moose Jaw to site so, until he moves to Alberta, he will prolly stick with a *somewhat* quieter mud tire but once he settles there the tire you listed sounds very good (I just can't see him putting up with the howl...

I highly doubt this would have had such a good result if son had bought the Jeep Sahara he had been originally looking at. I'm sure the jeep would have rolled. On Good Friday my son and husband were heading home after visiting Grandma. Where son was driving the highway was dry (Saskatchewan...

Daddy can own all the fancy vehicles he wants (no hate from me there)... most of the posts however are about Parenting101....some that get everything grow up to be fine upstanding adults but an awful lot don't. Odds are against the ones that do.

I have to shake my head reading this. I think back to an article I read about a famous hockey player, who is a millionaire now, who stated his favourite car was the first one he bought ... a piece of junk. He never had to worry about friends getting sick in it, a pizza being dumped on the seat...

Not yet on the GeoWagon....he just found out he has a month off in may/june so is eyeing spending 3 weeks in Europe. He has a friend teaching there so they are planning to hit the hostels and see as much as they can. He was looking at a horrendous health scare in his last year of Uni and...

closest netting I have found so far (will have to check sites that supply Police and Taxi drivers for a clear solid one) Jeep JK 4DR Warrior Cargo Net Have any of you fellows looked at the Nokian tire and Y. Geolander tire? If so which model would be good for the conditions he will be facing...

:D Thank you for above! Have sent the link to this thread onto him. The prairies are about to have a real honest to goodness winter storm (thank goodness, with those tires, he isn't heading anywhere for another week or two). He did have winter tires put on my Rav (he wasn't expecting to buy...

Good points...he'll now be looking at those as well.

Thank you for that ... he'll have lots to research when he comes home.

thanks will keep an eye open for those too :o)

Here's a news article from the area he is currently working near. Community Events Cougars killed Cougars and wolves continue to be a problem in the Whitecourt area. Fish and wildlife officers in the area have been working with hungers and trappers to reduce the predator population...

If he decides to go for the catcher/guard/bumper I'll make sure he reads the above and thank you.

Will make sure he had the undercoating done (I was at work when I made my quick reply above). will also make sure he is aware of the above re tires. Thank you for your suggestions.

I'm his Mom (who else would be annoying enough to do this). :S I am of the type that likes collecting info prior to items being needed at the last minute and thought you fellows would certainly have the knowledge of whats out there and, in some cases, where to find it. He, I'm sure, has...

So happy to have a reply from another Geo! :o) LOL re Fancy Pants ... the riggers saw him driving my 97 Rav4 for the first 6 jobs so have cut him slack there. He was bugged however for being seen plugging it in (temps weren't that cold) and for having clean, non stained, working overalls ;o)...
