Have you ever fish for gar down there

I hooked a big one in Ms, but I was fishing from a bridge and it was too heavy to reel up. I would have had to walk it to the end of the bridge and get down to the water to land it. Wasn't worth the effort to me.

naw not really, i've caught some small ones in the Rockport area, but not the big ones, most of those stay near the brazos river and houston area....i've seen pictures of big ones in those areas....

i like sport fishing saltwater, flounder, red fish, trout, sting ray, snapper, hard heads if i'm desperate......the wife likes fishing too....she also likes to go after fresh crab...

That makes sense it was down in Vidor well outside of Vidor for I caught one in a little well maybe 10 foot wide Canal down there craziest thing I've ever seen come up water

Isn't the Sante Fe a seven passenger car? I really like the blind spot cameras in the dashboard that Hyundai is doing. IMO the infotainment system is the weakest link in the crv. Nothing has changed since 2017

2023 is going to be a full redesign, it kind of looks like a rav 4

I don't think so, but I may have my models mixed up. In fact even on the lot with my buddy we couldn't remember if I drove a sante fe or the Tucson...and he was with me. I said Tuscon, he said Sante Fe... :eyesmoke:

Yeah that's why I keep an unlimited wireless plan on my iPad because I can't listen to movies while I drive via my car's electronics, it's a shame. Getting stuck in LA bumper to bumper traffic listening to old 1930's movies keeps me from losing my mind, or at least whatever is left of it.

I'm vacillating on buying a very expensive (to me) car I simply want instead of need. I've had the ability to work on cars and my husband has the skill and equipment to work on these newer cars. But realistically these cars are engineered and priced to cost a certain amount to own over their life. You can pay it up front or you can pay it when you replace an engine, but you will pay it.

I want to spend less of my free time working on cars. I don't find it as enjoyable anymore, especially these new ones. So I'm thinking from here on out I'm going to upgrade every time my car's warranty period ends. The dealership can sell it for a nice price since we are gentle on our cars and I don't have to worry about what that sound means.

However my Probe is currently in restoration mode but I enjoy working on her. The newer cars are more akin to Bic lighters as we move to non-ownership of vehicles and instead just order one to drive over and pick us up.

Fixes cars, does plumbing and home repairs... if you weren't married

With a name like "Probe" you have to get that car back on the road!

Tucson is the smaller five passenger suv like the CRV. I was on the fence between the CRV and the Tucson until I looked at fuel economy.

You mean it already happened? I'm not seeing goosebumps.

Yeah I think it was the Tucson I drove...and liked it quite a lot. They paid me $50 to drive it too, lol. And Subaru too!! Thank you both!!

I'm just looking at a EX model in the Honda CRV...They have a decent lease deal that would work well, and I'm just looking for a daily driver really, which it would fill those shoes nicely. And I can get a few bikes in the back, another plus. It's rated as one of the best values.

I really look at cars like tools any more myself, and I don't enjoy working on them any more...I do, but I can't with my back. I haven't even washed my Accord since Fall, and it looks it!! But I still like a nice car and I want the options, for my comfort, and safety!!

Well there's a paying gig I never considered! The EX is only one step below touring, has all the safety features and you can get the sonic grey

Is it even possible to work on modern cars without spending thousands on special computers?

Imagine it parked next to a Probe. That’s auto-erotic right there.

Loved fighting gar down in Tennessee tva floodlands... was bunch of buried silos and bridges and what not, big spotted possibly alligator coming up from the Mississippi. I once pulled a 4 foot 50 Lb blue catfish off a trap line there too. Mostly lookin for large mouth down there. But the gars were fun though scary to try and unhook, usually they could just shake em if you got em close cuz they’re all teeth.
