Made friends with them and they both like me and realize i can work hard and know what im doing for the most part so theyre letting me run the digger and set poles and what not. Having lots of fun so far. He told me he thinks ill be one of the only guys to actually make it to a lineman apprentice.

Took turbo off and cleaned it. Thought I would change the belt while I was at it and found one of my idler pulleys completely shot. No bearings at all and basically just hanging there. Oh and got the 08 rear bumper on the 05 KR

I hear you. I got this one pretty cheap. 150 bucks. If I get a 08 tailgate I will be putting it on HD.

Decided to do a little battery maintenance and see if they needed to be topped off. It's a good thing I did because both had a few cells that were low. I wasn't able to top them off completely since I ran out of distilled water, but my truck runs and charges better already.

Thats why your supposed to have 5 kids Josh.... first 2 can be either boy or girls.. those ones dont matter... 3rd one has to be a girl. 4th and 5th have to be boys...

1st ones taken in trade for those "first born prices.."
2nd one is sold off piece by piece.. for those times when you only have to pay the arm and leg prices... (btw if its a girl you can sell the egg.. theyre worth way more at the banks lol).
3rd one being the daughter you sell to that billionaire oil tycoon over seas for a few million dollars to cover the college expenses of 4 & 5.
4th & 5th kids being boys are to preserve the family line and name....

LOL
