  8. Depends entirely how much buck space you need! For me its simple as I just need to carry saws and climbing equipment. Double cab for me
  9. If everyone was paid the same what incentive would there be for those of us who like to push ourselves? May as well slow down the pace to that of the slowest and laziest worker on the team if we are all getting paid the same.
  10. It doesn't link directly to the database, but what it does give is any dealer the option of checking the serial number on the database to show if its marked stolen, and also the police thanks to the accreditation arbsafe has with the police secured by design initiative, so well worth getting listed, particularly as its entirely free!
  11. Sorry to hear that, have you listed them on arbsafe?

  15. Taken from the site: The enchanted-looking tree above harbors a wondrous secret. Using an ancient technique called “chip grafting,” artist and Syracuse University professor Sam Van Aken has carefully nurtured trees that can bear over 40 different types of stone fruits, including peaches, nectarines, apricots and almonds. The process is one of patience: Over several years, Van Aken splices branches with buds of various varieties into a base branch called the “working tree.” By springtime, the “Tree of 40 Fruit” sprouts pink and purple blossoms. In the summer, the tree begins to bear fruit of all kinds. “Part of the idea behind the Tree of 40 Fruit was to plant them in locations that people would stumble upon them,” said Van Aken speaking to National Geographic in the video below. “And once they happened upon one of these trees, they would start to question ‘Why are the leaves shaped differently?’ ‘Why are they different colors?’” Dozens of these trees have been planted around the U.S. You can find out here if a Tree of 40 Fruit is near you.
  16. Didn't even know there were 40 different stone fruits! [ame] [/ame]
  17. Nope, and the fact that its all in aid of someone with more money than they will ever earn just makes it worse
