3-12-09 Your Best Mod Net
We all have one week the ponder the following question...
What is the one single best vehicle modification or accessory you have on your current vehicle. Yes only one. We all have one week to think about all the money we have spend and the hours we have toiled over our vehicles and to decide on the one single thing that had the greatest impact on you. Is it your lift kit? Tire Deflators? Flashlight? LED interior lights? HAM radio? Compass? GPS? We all have slightly different needs and priorities so we should end up with quite a list.
Remember... just one... THE one... and why?

Re: 3-12-09 You Best Mod Net
Just one? Dang, I love all of my mods soooo much. Oh well, I guess it would have to be my lift...allows me to get through the rough places a little easier. Could taller tires be included as part of the lift?

Edit: Thought I'd chime in here since my current work situation prevents me from participating in the Nets. I'm working on it though... gotta soften up the boss so I can get a DSL line in my office. They refuse to allow EchoLink on our network. BTW, can I get a courtesy check-in, please?

For those of us that don't really particpate in the nets it's a great topic anyway.

Perhaps for those of us who can't get on the Nets, those who do our courtesy check-ins for us could mention our favorites for us... hint hint... nudge nudge!
