Oh for sure, the pit has always been there since I moved here 30 yrs ago,
but just lately I put a new set of rear air shocks on my 1996 Explorer plow truck

Good morning Monty and all.

Gerry, that garage looks SWEET! It has come a long way since the old one was taken down. That work bench looks pretty sturdy, but uncomfortable. Hope Mamma doesn't mind helping with your projects on that one.

Dak, I have NO experience whatsoever in the kind of driving you are required to do there in any sort of vehicle, but I have read repeatedly that it is highly recommended to turn off the exhaust brake in icy conditions, due to the possibility that it can cause the rear to lose traction. Be careful.

Roy, did you get the liner sprayed before the dump trip? How about the paint sealer?

My kids both came over yesterday evening, and my son brought his new GF. they stayed for a few hours before heading back to their side of town, but my daughter stayed over and is still asleep as I type. After my son and his GF left, my daughter and I decided we were feeling gourmet food and went to the Waffle House down the street. I haven't had Waffle House in many years, but it was fun. Their hash-browns are the entire reason why I have ever gone. Nothing better than scattered, smothered, covered, chunked and diced - unless you also get topped and peppered. YUM! They should really think about changing the name of the place to Hash-Brown House instead.

Mitch, I'm sure it's not fun spending Christmas off-shore, but hope you and your family were able to make the most of your time ashore prior to your departure. My youngest brother left just last week for a 6 month deployment off of the coast of Brazil.

You guys have a great day! I know I will.

Good morning to all Ye Bright Eyed.....smiley Folks........

Bedliner is not sprayed yet......Waiting until the Front Tough Country bumper gets here and is painted. Then the shop is going to spray the bedliner and mount the front bumper during one visit.

Yes ......I need to continue working on that project.
The Border Collie goes to PetCo for grooming and bath. I don't feel like doing it.

Good morning Savage Truckers!

It is pretty amazing how this little one pager kind of took off. Thanks guys I really like the thread and appreciate being a small part of it.

Gerry that garage turned out awesome. Gavin would be impressed how clean and organized it is...well done man. I love it!

It was a busy weekend for me. Got some work done on the sleds and loaded them all up in the trailer. Trailer floor works nice. I'm pretty happy with it. I have to take my sled in for a computer flash this morning for a cold start fouling issue. They say fuel remapping fixes the issue. I didn't have an issues because mine hasn't been on the snow yet because we HAVE NO SNOW. It seems unfair, but we don't.

Then we made 240 gingerbread cookies for Christmas. It's down a bit from prior years. We usually make 300-360, but with the wifey being sick for a week prior, we are a bit behind. Plus we give about 2/3's away and still had a lot left over. We didn't need that many cookies. Oh well...
