I actually got stuck on the next set of holes and because i had my windows down so i could listen to my husband instruct me, i literally DOUCHED the whole inside of the jeep with stinky smelly mud water.

So you just hose off the inside?
I'd be affraid of ruining it by doing that, like frying wires or something...

[/quote]you just have to know where to spray is all. i ripped out the carpet forver ago for that very reason. there are holes in the floorboards with plugs. you just undo the plugs and spray. i wipe down the dash part but my stereo is waterproof so i dont worry about that. you just have to know where your spraying is all.
makes for easier cleanup.

[/quote]its not a marine one, it has a face plate that covers it in case we go a little hard. still cant take a hose to the dash, too many wires.

Just wondered, my boat has this marine one behind a plastic cover.

I got it on sale for $100. 200 watts, remote, USB etc. and came with two speakers. Pretty happy with it. Marine speakers might be something you want to look at. Considering where it's mounted, I doubt it will ever get a drop of water on it.

Where the FUCK is the picture of your car DAMN IT??????
A sixteen year-old boy came home with a new Chevrolet Avalanche and his parents began to yell and scream, 'Where did you get that truck???!!!' He calmly told them, 'I bought it today.'
'With what money?' demanded his parents. They knew what a Chevrolet Avalanche cost.
'Well,' said the boy, 'this one cost me just fifteen dollars.' So the parents began to yell even louder. 'Who would sell a truck like that for fifteen dollars?' they said.
'It was the lady up the street,' said the boy. I don't know her name - they just moved in. She saw me ride past on my bike and asked me if I wanted to buy a Chevrolet Avalanche for fifteen dollars.'
'Oh my Goodness!,' moaned the mother, 'she must be a child abuser. Who knows what she will do next? John, you go right up there and see what's going on.' So the boy's father walked up the street to the house where the lady lived and found her out in the yard calmly planting petunias!
He introduced himself as the father of the boy to whom she had sold a new Chevrolet Avalanche for fifteen dollars and demanded to know why she did it.
'Well,' she said, 'this morning I got a phone call from my husband. I thought he was on a business trip, but learned from a friend he had run off to Hawaii with his mistress and really doesn't intend to come back.
He claimed he was stranded and needed cash, and asked me to sell his new Chevrolet Avalanche and send him the money.
So I did.'
Hoping this make WTBB laugh or at least smile. Sorry I couldn't find a picture with a tribe of dogs.

My newest car:
1972 MGB GT :-D
It looks a lot like that, but I have black bumpers.
Husband's brother is selling this car. Hubby wants to buy it, he'll give it to us for 2000.
Husband has a boner over the fact that it's diesel.
Thoughts?

That's what I'm saying! But my bil and my hubby are obsessed with diesels and say it will run until 500,000.

[/quote]diesels are good yeah but not EVERY diesel is going to last that long. i think bil wants to sell his car and hubby just wants a new toy. :lol:
he's had the car and it has a shit ton of miles on it. its been ran, ALOT. he posted in his ad all the stuff he's had done for it so that just means it was already starting to have issues.
i dunno, someone here might disagree with me but the cost of parts alone is scary, not to mention finding places to work on it. i wanted an RX8 but the nearest place that would work on it if it had issues was over an hour away. changed my mind really quick.
we have a diesel truck and i love it, but i also know that when its gonna decide to have issues, its gonna be spendy.
