Yeah, I’m doing my part here.

I honestly don’t understand why money backed by gold is better.
Gold is universally valuable because everyone agrees that it’s valuable.

Why not? I’d buy it.

If they could just take out the cylinder de activation shite in the 5.3 that would be perfect.



It would definitely help the reliability, but I’ve always found the 5.3 lacking in off idle/low rpm power. Bumping it to 5.7 or 6.6 would definitely help.
The 5.3 makes great power at an rpm range I rarely drive at.

People will absolutely torch me for saying this, but I will speak my mind anyway.

Your child is 6 years old. I don’t know your child at all, he’s probably a great kid. I’m not leaving any 6 year old on the planet access to an unsupervised gun. I don’t care what kind of training they’ve had.

If you shoot a lot, and/or train with your platform, you're not going to get nervous. If you shoot your deer rifle 3x a year, you're going to shake like a leaf.


This has nothing to do with it

There's a reason not to hunt with a traditional deer rifle and use an Armalite platform instead.

Explain it to me like I’m an embryo
I’m a little bit different than others, I guess.
If I hear deer approaching in the water (I hunt swamp) I can get shakey.
If I see a doe that’s acting like a buck is behind her, I can get shakey.

When I see a deer I know I want to shoot, I don’t get shakey until after it’s over.

Mine actually got horrible gas mileage for what it was. 4x4 with a 100hp 4 cylinder. The year before fuel injection. I got barely over 15 mpg. It was dreadfully under powered.

The Toyota 22R engine was quite a bit better



They seemed to run forever but they had their downfalls too.
They ate timing chain guides and oil leaks from the front seal were common. I had an 84. Helped my dad rebuild the engine at 230,000 something miles. Timing chain guides were gone and the chain had worn a 1/4” groove in the head. You could hear the chatter from the chain at certain RPMS.
