re: Advice on truck purchase
Posted by Cajun Slick on 4/17/25 at 5:21 pm
Wait till Ram starts remaking the Hemi 5.7 in August (supposedly). That engine plus the ZF transmission is ultra reliable. Interior is great and back seat is huge for the kids. Ride is second to none with the rear coil springs. Tech is great too. Had mine since 2021. Not a single issue. GM transmissions aren’t reliable and engine lifters are suspect. Ford has a rubber belt powering their oil pumps. Toyota’s new trucks have been having all kinds of issues.
If you do get the Ram Hemi try not to let it idle too long. Hopefully they put the hellcat oil pump in all new engines (some ppl say the current oil pumps that decrease pressure when at idle cause lifter failure at around 100k miles or so. I have the etorque stop /start so mine doesn’t idle much.).
Good luck

Louisiana is so low because ppl with disposable income here have more options (specifically a boat) to spend the money on. If I lived in Iowa or Vermont I might have a Harley just for fun. Bet since I live in a giant delta I choose to have a boat instead
re: Toyota donating $1 million to Trump's inauguration fund

Toyota just announced they’re bringing back the FJ cruiser with a V6!!!
This NEVER happens if Kamala is president. Guarantee Ram brings back a V8 for their trucks and cars soon too.
Thank 9 pound 8 ounce sweet baby Jesus for Donald J Trump.
So much winning already and he hasn’t even been inaugurated!!

the christmas lights show at the LSU ag center off Essen lane. $20 per ticket for all ages 4 and over plus $10 to park. I think this buys you a 30 minute time slot for viewing. Family of four would be $90 bucks.
Any of you OT ballers been. Does it come close to being worth the money?

Ram is rumored to be switching transmissions to a ZF. If they do that’s what I would have the confidence in to last the longest trouble free…power train wise.
re: Rain X, the best 5 bucks and a 6 pack ever spent?
Posted by Cajun Slick on 9/7/24 at 8:37 pm
It should be mandatory for all drivers. They should check for it when they do the inspection sticker. It would keep all these jackasses from riding around with their hazard lights on. Would probably cut down an accidents too.

My wife is dealing with a non at fault accident /repair as we speak. Our vehicle has been sitting at the body shop for 2 months now waiting on parts to be delivered with no delivery date confirmation as of yet. Her rental is just clocking up $. Before Covid I was in a similar accident, my truck spent one week in a shop getting repaired. It’s like American forgot how to do o logistics
re: Deer Processing Percentages?
Posted by Cajun Slick on 11/21/23 at 9:39 pm
Bourgeois in Thibodaux does a 50/25/25 deer/pork/beef ground mix that is the best tasting I’ve had yet. It also is the only ground mix that holds together when making burgers. I recommend trying it. Bonus = grab a pack of their beef jerky while you’re there.
re: Best ATV value
Posted by Cajun Slick on 11/16/23 at 10:49 am
Suzuki makes a phenomenal ATV. I’ve owned two since 1995 and never had ONE problem that wasn’t related to normal wear and tear. My Dad has had one since 2014. Same reliability. Suzuki makes bikes that live up to Honda’s reputation. Honda can’t even say that.
As for value and ride quality, their 500 would probably be best. 400 is a good farm machine, but doesn’t have independent rear suspension.

Israeli citizens aren’t allowed to own firearms?
Posted by Cajun Slick on 10/7/23 at 9:47 pm
quote:
Israeli law allows citizens to carry weapons under certain conditions, such as requiring one for work or living in an area of the country that faces heightened security risks. People who are eligible can own a single gun and 50 bullets
This is googles response to my query. Seems like of all countries Israel should encourage if not give out weaponry to all citizens who wish to own them. A lot of this could have been avoided. Especially considering all citizens serve in the military in some way shape or form. You would think this includes firearms training. “Every man a rifleman”. “Better to be a warrior in a garden than a gardener in a war”. Long live 2A
re: Hype video to try to top LSU football program's one. Spent 40+ hours on this. Y'all enjoy.
Posted by Cajun Slick on 8/29/23 at 12:22 am
Great job on the video, but….what happened to the good ole days where hype videos were set to some kick arse music that you know, hyped you up? I felt like I was watching a movie preview or something. I want to feel like I can run through a wall after watching an LSU Football hype video. Could just be me though
re: Car- Outside Temperature Indicator
Posted by Cajun Slick on 8/5/23 at 5:22 pm
My 2009 Silverado’s sensor was located behind the front grill near the radiator. I had it changed once due to inaccuracy, but the replacement gave the same readings so I just gave up. I think they all read a few degrees hotter than actual temp.

Give Suzuki a look. They’re just as reliable as Honda and would be perfect for your needs
re: Polaris Ranger battery recs
Posted by Cajun Slick on 4/29/23 at 3:04 am
My 4-wheeler is 15 years old and I’ve only replaced the battery once. The OE battery was made by Yuasa. I got 7 years out of that one and it was working fine when I replaced it. I only replaced it because I thought there was no way a battery could last longer than that. I was worried about being stranded somewhere on a public hunting lease by myself with a dead battery. Needless to say I bought another Yuasa and this one is going on year 8.
I charge it periodically but it’s not kept on a tinder (if you were wondering)

Where can you go crabbing from this launch? I have a dozen drop nets set at 10-12 feet deep. Would these work there?

Y light is 4% fyi. Y premium light is 3.5, so we were both wrong. It’s still not nearly as good as Miller Lite.

The real miracle is how the F Michelob ultra ever became popular. That trash tastes like carbonated water. I didn’t think anyone could make a less “beer” tasting beer than Coors light, but they pulled it off. It’s the only beer I’d poor down the sink if someone gave it to me for free. Yeungling is better than BL but it’s only 3.5% abv, you gotta drink 42 of em to catch a buzz. Milller lite is the go to
re: Pulling a boat with ATV
Posted by Cajun Slick on 4/10/23 at 10:55 pm
You should be fine if it’s just a Jon boat. Especially if you’ve got a big bore ATV with a low gear and differential lock. The tongue weight on the rear tires should help.
