Hanging with Paulie: Reviews, Rides, and Regrets… All for Your Benefit…and entertainment
Proline Body Mounts
If you’ve ever tried fitting an electric Slash body on a Nitro Slash, you know the frustration — they just don’t line up! In this post, I test out the Pro-Line Adjustable Body Mount Kit to see if it really solves that problem. I’ll walk you through what’s in the kit, what works, what doesn’t, and why this little upgrade earned the title of a Paulie’s Pick. Spoiler: it’s not perfect, but it makes swapping bodies a whole lot easier for anyone who loves tinkering with their RC rigs.
Eufy… Euphoria or Epiphany…
Tired of paying for yet another subscription? So was I. That’s why I swapped out my Ring Pro for the Eufy E340 Video Doorbell—a camera-packed, subscription-free doorbell that actually lets you own your product. Two cameras, smart package alerts, no yearly fees. Yep, I’m strangely excited about a doorbell… and you might be too.
Aarma….My FURY is Released!….and I’m LOVING IT!
Unboxing the ARRMA Fury from Tower Hobbies’ Scratch & Dent section! Is this discontinued brushed short course truck still worth it in 2025? Let’s dig into the build quality, performance, and value for beginners and RC enthusiasts alike.
Badland Tires: Sometimes a Badland is the Perfect LAND!
I try out the Proline Badlands tires! The tires are absolutely amazing. The Slash is a whole new truck. That is, until the steering broke. OH well, what is one more upgrade? Anyway, we spend the time reviewing the Proline Badlands tires.
Antidote Rooftop Tent
The Antidote tent is sleek with a fiberglass shell (yes, like a Corvette), standing room inside, and a universal mounting system; it’s both practical and fun. Antidote’s customer service is top-notch, and the tent’s durability holds up provided that you close it. If you’re tired of Yakima prices and want a rooftop tent that works without the drama, this might be your antidote.
KTM LC8: Not a Katoomer…It’s the BOMB!
I have the opportunity and privilege to ride a KTM LC8. It is a very nice bike, and it is incredibly fun to ride. This bike ends up being a Paulie’s pick.
Heading Home: Devil’s Tower
We go to Devil’s tower, and get possessed by the landscape! What a cool sight or is that site….. either way it is worth a look.
Iron Mountain Road
Are you near Rapid City South Dakota? Did the Pioneer Auto Show close early for you too? Well, then check out this road! It is worth the trip!
Road Trip Report: Pompey’s Pillar/Tower
We do a bit of a road trip to North Dakota. We decide to explore a few places. Here, I report on our visit to Pompeys Pillar. This is one Lewis and Clark’s exploration of the west. In fact, Clark signs his name in the rock. Does that make our explorer an early tagger?
