I'd say get Capra or the SCX10 III. Save the XR10 for another day or hold onto it longer and make money on it.




Damn that's a bummer and kinda scary! No local butchers or farms?

What few farms are left around here don't grow anything people eat. That and it is spring planting time. They have been growing mostly cotton the last few years and sometimes soy beans. There is no livestock to speak of, all planted crops.

My thoughts are that as a moderator you should be tempering all of the banter, not encouraging it. I'll leave it up to you all to figure out who I'm talking about.
Soooooooooooo maybe it would be good to just step back and take a look at what this thread is really about and leave the political BS out of it. Just my 2 cents!

Bet you voted for Obama too.......

I’m a truck driver on my last roll of toilet paper in my semi, 1200 miles from home, and only a few cans of some really crappy food that was left on the shelves at the last couple stores I could actually fit my semi into. This shit is ridiculous. There is NO shortage of tp or food in this country of the USA just a bunch of panicked sheep ruining it for the rest of us. I never went out and bought anything extra I’m just on the last of what I already had in my truck for tp. And I’m not about to start using my clothes lol. Hopefully the next store I can legally get into will have a roll.

Overall this is a situation that you just have to roll with, it will pass, we will get through it. Seeing guys (and gals) like you rolling down the road during all of this is what gives me piece of mind.

I seriously, in no jest, think that all of the d!ckheads who panic bought TP should be sterilized, their children as well. They have proven that they do not think rationally in a crisis, and likely their offspring don't either. Given their lack of judgmental thought, along with procreation, they should also be prohibited from voting and driving.

Thank you. And I have to 100% agree with you about the rest of your post. It may not be PC or popular but YES if only we could do that.

If you listen and pay attention and have just a lick of common sense maybe, just maybe .......

You can make an educated decision for yourself and quit relying on the uneducated crap

Lt Gov. of Texas wants all us grandparents to give it up for the almighty dollar and the world’s economy!! Let him be the first one to step up....stupid MF...r

I am really discouraged... I thought the American public would be a bit more educated...

Today our Prime Minister declared a total lockdown until 14th April. We are caged for 21 days.

However this will be a good opportunity for me to get my software and electronics skill a level up.

OMG it's got the Corona! Put it down!

I don't drink anymore, but thanks for the offer.


I'm not sure why people don't realize that two educated and intelligent adults can review the same information or the same topic and come up with different synopses. You may say, "How is that possible?" Is it because one person is stupid? No. It's because we all have our own beliefs, our own core values, our own holdups, our own biases, our own hesitations, our own fears, our own emotions, our own desires, etc. Life isn't like math. Things in life usually aren't cut and dry. To think less of a person for voicing their opinion just because it differs from your own analysis shows a very closed mined person.

Also, quoting a single post from a person and then summarizing their entire personality or their entire point of view based on that one post shows a high level of ignorance. That's something the media would do.

I read his comment immediately after his post. I don't use twitter so I was not able to confirm the authenticity of that pic. These days fake news and propaganda make it hard to trust anything.

Oddly enough, it's all the perishable food that keeps disappearing... bread, meat, etc. It's clear to me that these panic buyers aren't really thinking through their decisions. I'm guessing that most of the people buying $200 worth of steak and Wonder bread don't have enough freezer space to actually hold it all.

Good point but these days it doesn't take much of a freezer to hold $200 worth of steak. I've spent way more than that for meat for a barbecue for just 10 people and that would have easily fit in my fridge's freezer.

~more facts, logic and personal responsibility would make the world a far better place than all the leftist ideas could dream of.

Seems like we haven't had a new name for this virus in a while...

There was:
The coronavirus
The Novel coronavirus
Covid-19
and ... C-19

How about something different... I am thinking "Captain Trips"...

If this doesn't make any sense, there are a couple of things going on here...
1. You are not well read
2. Its late, and you're tired
3. The Sailor Jerry's bottle on my kitchen counter has misplaced three shots...
