Colorado Krew Hangout

[Apparition]

In other news, I changed out my plugs cap and rotor in an attempt to clear the misfire code. The plugs that were in there were set at around 22-25 thou where the spec is 35. Not sure if that was enough though as they were clean and in good shape.

I take it on a test drive for a long drive and NO codes were thrown. I get to the emissions station and only one car in line..... Yeah baby!

I pull up and their effing machine won't connect to the OBD port.

I hook up my personal OBD dongle and show that it works. They moved the jeep to the other lane and tried that machine and it friggen worked. Now all I have to do is pass the emissions test. They just pull the Jeep forward and give me a PASS certificate. Woooohoooo!

But WTF, no readings on the paper. But it's a PASS.

So why the fuck do I even need to do this? Insane.

But it passed.

...and my horn quit working again. Jeep Life.

Colorado loves stupid fucking fees for everything, but "we have low taxes"

 

[Claytone]

I've dealt with a few of the folks in that program. It's a total revenue generator.
Like tits on a bull, useless.

So are we doing spring Creek or red cone

 

[NDSpeed]

living in Alaska really screws up my thought process because usually by August I’m thinking oh it’s better to start getting everything wrapped up for winter.

We still have two months to go.

So are we doing spring Creek or red cone

Part of why I was asking who’s in. Spring Creek lockers are recommended, Redcone not so much. Redcone will be busy but we get to take 285 in and out. My vote is SC but will be just as happy on RC

Well Mr NDS speed doesn't have lockers right

 

[lBasket]

I don't really need to drive on 70 either way

Spring Creek almost requires lockers and is the hardest trail in the area. Red Cone is mostly a dirt road.

 

[NDSpeed]

I do not have lockers. But have the authorization, so that's is easily 7/5ths of the way there

Not helpful this weekend. Hurry and buy!

 

[inkedrose]

So Redcone it is?

Yup

 

[Abendage]

Sounds good to me. If anyone wants to meet up SW metro to caravan in I’m game. I’ll also probably flat tow mine in so I’ll have to find somewhere to stash the tow pig.

 

[lBasket]

I am coming from West so we need to meet on handcart gulch somewhere

 

[NDSpeed]

The GPS said looks like I70 is better coming in from the corridor

 

[lBasket]

Are you going to go all the way through Montezuma and down Webster pass or something

 

[NDSpeed]

I still have to look it up. This is third person from my wife

 

[rasband]

I-70 is almost never the answer I'd take 285 even if it was a longer drive.
