Good morning everybody back home
That's nice R.C. But I'm not wired that way, I'll be right there with the yelling and if they want to take it further, I can be that guy too.
Glad y'all made it through the storms alright, yeah I keep a watchful eye back home.
I'm heading out of the house in the next 45 minutes or so to go get some guitar time/therapy in this morning.
I've had a idea for the coyote engine that was in my 2011, but never could get it finished. Well, I found a local shop and that would work with me, and I had 50 of these made. And the first set look great on the 2013, if I do say so myself.
Now to see if I get sued for using a cartoon character.
I need to clean up better from the Flex Fuel emblem that was on the tailgate. It doesn't look that bad with my eyes, but the camera sure liked it.

Unk Bob

yea bob ..i used to get mad and upset when i felt 'dumped on'... but i have found that it usually did no good and most times made things worse.. so from now on i am going to take care of me and my mental health first and blow off the small things....

now when it comes to my wallet i will still "speak softly and carry a big stick".. ha ha ha ha ha

cool stickers..

Howdy all. RC, good read, sorry you had to deal with such a tool. I've quit waiting on people who don't have green folding stuff and a firm appointment, I'm impatient as all get and would much rather be working on my projects, unfortunately I've got other obligations from running my shop so my son had a paycheck, now he's looking for a job and I'm trying to whittle down to my stuff. Plenty of work with deposits, hopefully I don't pull an Alan and near to work myself to death getting this stuff done.

Morning folks. The storms stayed north of us and all we got out of it was some thunder and a pretty impressive light show.

Welcome to the forums Scott. I'm in and out a lot depending on how nutty my work week has been. This is my favorite online place to hang out in so I try to check in when I can.

Evening Everybody!

Rich. ....I'm honored my credit is so good with you, but keep your kidneys. So far, mine are still working half @ $$ed ok.

RC. My response to those people is usually in a calm tone, "You do what you think you have to do, ...and then I'll react to it." It gets the point across rather clearly for being such a vague statement.

Scott. Welcome aboard. I'm sure we'll meet eventually. .....I'm the monster truck guy in the room.

Speaking of which.... We had an "oh s#!t" situation in the shop today. While spraying the bedliner in High Roller, we used stuff that is SUPER sensitive to moisture in the air supply. It looks like someone spilled a vanilla milkshake in the bed. Of course we panicked. We're having stuff overnighted that's a little forgiving to moisture and hopefully will have it done by lunch tomorrow. ...that's the plan anyway. The guy at the store said it was pricey. I told him he didn't understand what was happening right now. The truck HAS to be done in 10 days and it doesn't matter if something is going to run a little high. Hopefully, I'll be able to make the truck move under it's own power for the reveal at the Indy Jamboree. LOTS of people are counting on seeing it then. ...nothing like a little pressure to let you know you're still alive.

Hey RC. If you swing by, can you bring an engine stand? I hope to yank the engine out of HR tomorrow and I don't have an extra one right now.

Evening all. Just a typical Friday for me - ran Mom & Dad around for dr. appointments and grocery shopping.

Today's National Dog Day! The only thing more loyal and dependable than a good dog is a Ford truck.

Morning folks, RC are you still planning on meeting that guy for the truck bed sale/swap at my place? Any idea on a time line for you?

Yes, you were literally in the neighborhood lol! Always good to see you RC! Ever remember what part you needed from me?? Lol
Sounds good for tomorrow RC. I cleared out more space for the frame. Tomorrow before you get here I hope to have the rear end rolled out for it.
