Better than this morning and you????

Sandy is bringing the puppy to the vet tomorrow so if the truck is done I can stick around and give you a hand with your sleds, heck maybe I will even learn something, LOL.


Gotta run an errand see y'all in a while.....

The truck wouldn't start this morning so I had AAA tow it to Dave's shop. They found 2 batteries heading south, water pump leaking and gelled up......Sounds like I should get that back tomorrow, Thanks to Dave and Rob........

Heading out in the am to get Jays shocks and scoot over to Mike's to help if I can.....

Lee Thanks for bringing the trailer to Plymouth today I appreciate that.

How is everyone else doing today????????

Jay hopefully Lynn will be better tomorrow, Our thoughts are with Mike in a smoother recovery, its tough emotionally to be inactive. It gets to you after a while.......
Evening Tom! Geeez Tom I thought your truck always started! LOL Sorry to hear of your troubles but looks like Dave will get you taken care of.

Good evening guys.

The source of my frustration, transmission in my truck was slipping on the way home today. It only seemed to do it once it was warmed up and once I turned off the highway on to the road I live on. It was almost like the TC was not locked when it should have been and was slipping.
Headed to the trans shop tomorrow morning to see what he will do for me. It is a couple months and a couple thousand miles out of the GREAT 1 year warranty he offers..........
If you see my truck buried in the front of a trans shop on the news tomorrow you'll know how it went...............


I fricken knew I should have just bit the bullet and got a damn BTS....................


GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


FML!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Troy, Mike, Tom, and Jake!

Troy, I'm doing okay. A bit cold though...

Sounds good Tom, I'll let you know the plans.

Mike, that really sucks. If it's diagnosed as a TC, we can pull it and he can warranty that I would imagine he's done one sooner than yours. While it's out those up-pipes would be a lot easier. Make the best or the situation anyhow...

Hey Mike! Sorry to hear about the trans trouble! Hopefully he will make it right with you even though it is out of warranty, I will keep an eye on the news just in case!

Yeah, those up pipes would be a breeze with the trans out of the way. You'd have full access to the bolts(or the rusty POS's they have become) in the manifolds then.



I really don't know what to think anymore.......................
