I say Andy, Aaron, and I get all the 6.0s together and get a priest to come perform an exorcism.

By the way, guys... I'm not seeing as many replies as there ought to be over here...
https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/1025193-jan-gtg.html

Wallingford Ihop likely has better looking girls working there than the Hooters on the Tpke does. Unless they got an uglier staff since our last GTG there. Very nice scenery...
