LO PHAT

Hello and welcome to the fun.

Walmart is saying that it was an internal technical error. They are adamant about it not being a hack. I don't think you should feel bad. If you posted something here for sale for $5 instead of $50 and got an interested buyer, I'm sure you would do the right thing and honor the $5 price even though it was a mistake on your part. Depending on how many orders got through this could be a very costly mistake for Walmart, but hopefully they will do right by their customers and honor the prices for those who already had their credit card transactions approved. This is especially important since many Walmart customers were able to buy incorrectly priced items directly from the stores. It would be unfair to keep other customers' credit card funds tied up for several days and then say, "Sorry. It was a mistake. We are refunding your money."

The word on the Internet is that Walmart's website suffered from an internal technical error. Some people, however, apparently made it out of stores with an online price match on some big ticket items like 55" TVs, computer monitors, and exercise equipment before corporate realized what was happening.

How are you surfing their site? I still can't get it to load. It says it is down for scheduled maintenance each time I try.

LOL! Walmart's site just went down. I wonder if they are having some "issues" with product pricing... Were you able to order one of those Cobra CBs at that price, Mike?

Out of stock...

Hello and welcome to the fun. You can't go wrong with a Jeep Cherokee (XJ) or a Jeep Grand Cherokee (ZJ or WJ).

I will volunteer to help as an instructor if this is organized again.

I'm in for Rocker Panel Pass.

In my opinion the main concern is keeping the draglink and the track bar parallel to each other and equal in length.

Now that Clifford is alive again, when will his phallic symbol be replaced? . . . And will it be made larger and more erect?

I always go. It's definitely a great time.

Your WJ looks awesome!

My two cents... Carry a Hi-Lift jack as it can also be used for various recovery purposes. (Side note: If your vehicle has tons of articulation, do not assume that a Hi-Lift will work for changing a tire. Make sure to also carry a bottle jack or scissor jack to use under an axle. It's easier and safer than ratchet strapping suspension components in combination with a Hi-Lift.)

Happy Halloween, everyone! Have fun and be safe out there tonight.

Here are 24 seconds of pure on-road recovery awesomeness! (bad language warning for those viewing at work)

Don't go cheap when it comes to XJ unibodies. Get the full frame stiffener set.

A little off topic, but... Holy freakin' rock stacking, Batman!

Is anyone doing anything with their vehicles for Halloween? We did this as part of our "decorations" last year. I'm sure that we'll do something fun with our vehicles again this year too.

We started on the trail at about 8:00 am with a group of eight, but at the hill with the "big" rock two of the Jeeps turned around and left the group. Our pace for the day was a very casual one, and, even though we got very close to the shack, the majority of the group voted to turn around so as to not have to go down the hill with the "big" rock after sunset. We finished our return trip in the dark and were airing up our tires shortly after 7:00 pm. On my previous run on this trail we started on the trail around 7:00 am and went all the way to the shack. On that run we were airing up much later in the evening, but that likely had more to do with some idiot (*cough, cough*) breaking an axle shaft while trying to crawl through a six foot deep crack on the way out.

I just did Mud Springs yesterday. If you plan to go all the way to the shack I would suggest an earlier start time.

Hello and welcome to the fun.

Hello and welcome to the fun.

It isn't the "wrong way" to do it. It just may not be the best way to do it. I've been running a hack 'n tap on my XJ for years without any issues.

(in my best South Park voice) Whoa, Dude!
