To far away. The reason TX and FL work is there are plenty of friends and family I can stop and see on the way back. I can only drive a small handful of hours at a time so stopping frequently is a big issue. To be completely honest I'm not sure if I can even do Houston. I would have to fly to Houston and stay for a night (probably) leave the next day and drive all day to get to Tyler where my family is. I would have to stay for at least 2 days to physically ready for the next part. I would have to drive the "12" hour drive from there to here that took my wife and I 20 hours to do together. That would honestly take me 2 days because I would have to get a hotel. If I do FL I can go down and get the truck (stay the night depending on time) hit the road and get to Jacksonville in a day. From Jacksonville I can get to Atlanta and see Mark and CO. and possibly get a hotel that night as well. Then the rest would all be done in a day.
So no response to this? I'm trying to help you stay organized here man! If Texas is out cuz of the driving distance thing, that's cool. Just let us know what you wanna do.

Have you thought about shipping? Have someone check it out for you, pay for it and then have it delivered to your house. Last time I checked it was around 1k. But, you don't have to fly and pay for fuel back or hotel. Plus, all your time and pain you may be in. It may open other areas to find the best deal.

Nice work Juan Huevos!!!! Reps to you!
Out of the lengthy list, these three stick out to me:
I'll call on it in the morning too. I'll see what happens with the red diesel first before though. If that one checks out then I'll skip this one
K&N with lots of miles might have a dusted turbo. I would want to see the turbo if I looked at that one.
I made a ***** move about a year ago. I was having a guy drive to my house to pick up some parts. I was waiting, he was on his way, I forgot and something came up, so I left. Apparently the guy showed up and sat in the driveway for an hour texting me the whole time (phone was on the counter). I didn't find out till much later that night. The text progression was priceless I wish I had a smart phone so I could have saved it. It started out as "I think I am in your driveway" to "Dude wtf, where are you" to "Is this some kind of f&^%*&^ joke?" LOL I was literally LOL at the texts!
I did text him as soon as I finished and apologized and ended up shipping him the parts for no cost. It was hilarious to me and he did get a laugh out of it eventually as well.
Well I sent an email to the guy with this one last night and offered 9k and he said that was fine with him... don't know if I want to go and look alone though Is anyone near here at all and know diesels? Hopefully the red one will work out this morning though so I won't have to think about it.
10,500 but he might come down a ways. Seems a little high, but give him a call. I told him someone from Va may be calling him. I can't go look at it, but maybe someone else can.
