Sticking with OEM style parts is fairly cheap, unless you are talking about electrical parts.

Right now the roads around here are white and not with snow. Just getting near a road you will ingest 3 times your yearly recommended amount of salt

A few more bolts to go in, and reassemble it all, put in fluids, and she's ready to crank! Should be done next weekend, just in time for "the unveiling" at King of the Hammers!!!!

BwhahahahA. I was with my wife and thought it was for 70. She said to ask them if the 25% was already posted. I figured what the hell. She urged me to buy and after it was rung up even the kid at the counter was surprised lol. I couldn't stop talking about it to my wife. Hell I couldn't believe how lucky I got. Gonna mount it on the tranny tunnel since it won't fit to the off of the steering wheel like the midland

Oh, original price was like $140 iirc

Yeah it's something like that. That's a really nice radio. I like my Cobra 19, but I'd like to get a 29 or something else that has SSB on it.

I had a Uniden Bearcat PC78LTW (basically the same thing) in the Comanche. Personally, I didn't like it cause I always bumped the ***** that I didn't even know how to use lol. But definitely a steal at that price! Good for you, buddy
