Welcome to the world of business travel. I havn't been home for a week in over a month and when I am home I am not at my house. I have had a new HPOP sitting on the bench and the truck torn down for 3 weeks.

Stuck in Louisville till Thursday. Then home for the weekend finally.

Yeah I was baffled about how it was built then never used lol. You might be able to answer this question though, there's something a few miles away from it that is just bellowing out white smoke or steam or something all day everyday do you have any idea what it is? My coworker and I have been trying to figure it out lol.

If it comes from the west, I believe there are some mills, and refineries in or near Aberdeen.

I moved away from Washington in 2003, but that is probably the cedar shake mill in Aberdeen/Hoquiam. (Ho-Kwee-Um)

I would have the Focus RS in a heart beat. It has a drift button..... I can hear Clarkson saying about how pressing the drift button for 5 seconds wakes the demon under the hood and in the differentials and makes lots more horsepowers and tractions.....

No excuses. You gotta plan for these things. Gives you something to do on the airplane

Not sure if i mentioned this to you guys or not but i am going ot be buying a 3D printer off my coworker that he bought and decided he didn't want but it's too late for him to return it so i am taking it off his hands lol. I am going to make some wire harness cradles, switch adapters and relay housing brackets with it for the dashboard so i will be pulling it off again briefly to take some measurements and print a few pieces to make the install cleaner. If anyone ever needs any of the stuff after i make them let me know, i will see how expensive it is to print them but a reel or plastic is only about 30 bucks and it takes us a long time to go through it at work.

Or if anyone has anything they want to try let me know i can try and make it for you just PM me! BTW I will be painting the Frame tonight finally the weekend is over and i wont be traveling again for a little while so its back to the truck!
