Welcome to the IHoP

Of course, I could pull all that off for WAY less than 10K as well.

I'm pretty excited that my Silverado on 35's with 4.56 gears can get 16 on the highway.

yeah, but it's not your truck though. . . . . or your money. To each his own

[OuTLaWeD 110]

i loved the top gear episode where they proved that an M5 gets better fuel mileage then a prius

Speaking on a similar note.

WTF is a smart car good for? I was looking at the specs and my 17 yr old 4 banger gets only 3 mpg less on the highway and has a shit ton more room.

Watch this all the way through. Was going to post it in the what I'm listening to topic, but it is so much funnier here:

As for the durring work out drinks we know that carbs or fats will stop a GH pulse. So using a carb drink durring might inhibit the fat loss goals. BCAA drinks are great. I dont mix with protein, but that might be fine. A calorie free crystal light is a GREAT option to mask the flavor if you have to.

What about post-workout carbs and fats from that point of view ?

[Adrian_D 520]

I was going to mention something like a pre-work out could help carry you deeper into the workouts. Might need to do a slight carb load and a banana, an hour before heavy lifting.

I wish I had the time to have larger breaks, but I am forced to keep it around 45 seconds max, between sets. So the workouts are intense and fast paced so I can get in as much as possible in 45-60mins.

I try to shorten my workouts with compounds. I actually hit everything in each workout, even as short as they are. 45 degree bent over rows really hit almost every muscle group and it is totally exhausting.

Bent over rows FTW

Deadlifts FTW too.

You actually recommended me bent over rows when I started lifting this winter.

And I'm pissed if my Jeep drops under 28 out of town

Out of town means an average of ~40mph, with occasional 70mph passes, hills, twisties

Hey Neal, that steam show I was talkin about is this weekend...

Hopefully I will be able to make it out there for it.

I scrolled through 2/3 of the pictures and didn't see a single steamer.

Few nice Kerosene burners though

what would you guys think about going from 38's to 40's on my truck?

What sort of off roading do you do?

[jonbearsmt 919]

did anyone catch homeland ?

[///M5 2,833]

38

think the 40's would be too big? those are 38's on it right now

Are you even getting 12mpg? Just wondering.

I'm not. Lol

average 10.7MPG. thats another reason i'm going to do the Duramax diesel conversion, the extra power will be nice also.

Will 10k even touch putting a Duramax in it?

not likelly. it's quite a bit more than that, but i do get one more bonus from work that i'll be using since i quit being a boss. That won't be till the first quarter of next year though

Don't waste your money, you work too hard for it.

[///M5 2,833]

I see what you are saying

You won't see the same results in town driving. Basically a scooter in a "cars" body

[///M5 2,833]

Matt not sure what you had, but I puked like a champ last night and have EXPLOSIVE ass.

Mall parking lots have nasty pot holes.

[///M5 2,833]

Come on, I have the ultimate soccer mom mall car.

[///M5 2,833]

And even with 40 series rubber on 20's it takes potholes pretty well....thank god.
