You can get creative with PVC to put your rods in. I've seen them with just the handles or using a large one with a capped and screw cap, holding multiple rods. The latter one protects them from the weather and tends to provide better security. Good luck fishing :)

Find a local metal shop. They have the machines that can do what you need. I had a like problem on my Jeep's plate and they bent it back for free.

What is that extra plate hanging from your front license plate??

Contact a local battery shop. They can custom fab you a proper cable. I had the same problem with a Jeep I use to have. Good luck :)

Dealer Bumping Costs on Oil Changes I just had my 2011 T4R in to Bud Clary Toyota here in Yakima Washington for the usual 5,000 mile oil change and tire rotation. At the end I get the check list from the service tech and he advises, my toe is out of adjustment and for $78 they can fix that...

Moab Mystery Here is something the Archaeologists can ponder, lol.

Bryce Canyon and Zion National Parks The wife and I got back home last night from a week long road trip to Utah's southwest area. This is our third trip to Utah's park system. As usual our 4Runner did all that we asked of it :)
