    8s are about the perfect size, anything after that gets excessive.

    Yeah the neighbor has an ego and inflated sense of he is better than evveryone. So we locals dont try to tell him anything. He wouldnt listen anyways.
    The joke about him? He left Connecticut because supposedly no one liked him. Well he has been a mules tail to everyone here and here in Maine no one likes him either. Looks like we are in for a long wait (him to move) as there are only a few locals left that he hasnt burned yet.

    As much as I like dark Colors fighting the heat factor to look good is just to impractical during summer months.

    Just bought my first vehicle tha isn't white in 20 years. Looks good but dang it's hot inside for a while .

    We have a solid white Pete. this one and 3 solid blue ones. None are any different to us when it comes to heat. I've drove blacked out petes6and the same goes for it. Never had a issue due to the paint color
