Hey @Juan L I finally got the camera I wanted (kinda) ordered for shuffle. I gave the big guy a list and hoped. He got the one I was aiming for, a few years older tech, but still a fantastic system and it's compatible with the gear I'm currently running and expanding. I took this yesterday (this is a low res version) and it's my new favorite artistic shot. This was my camera, the "new" one isn't in yet. Just got word today.

Are Fruit Flies a problem in your neck of the woods Mick? If so, I'd advise jumping on that sale.

truck gets a set of struts today. In my younger days I d wrench ‘em in the driveway. But I’m well beyond that crap. Best to farm it out and concentrate on the stuff I can do without any trouble. Tires coming in as well. Cooper rugged treks.
Coopers are my go to truck tires. Had the usual goodyear wranglers on it when I bought mine, put Coopers on it the next year, didn't like the wranglers. Mediocre traction, noisy, and what I didn't expect, the truck rode noticeably smoother than the goodyears. Way better rain traction, I've never driven on goodyears that I wouldn't rate poor for rain traction, and that includes those awful rain tires they sold briefly several years back. Worst tire I ever drove on in any conditions.
