Do you think a 1990 f250 two wheel drive 7.3idi weighs 5000. I'm doubtful. I did check with the seller and i can keep it there till i'm able to get it back home. So most likely i'll just go home, get a temp tag, which i need anyway since it was last registered in ny so it needs to be emissions tested and head back the next weekend with temp in hand.

My F150's light weight is 5000 lbs so that 250 is easily over that.

Between the California time change and the weekend in PA I have been pretty dead after work this week. I have managed to do a few small things but the real work won't be started until this afternoon or tomorrow.

I was working on the threshold yesterday, once that's in I can install the last couple of tiles and grout the floor. I need to finish insulating the ceiling so that the rest of the sheetrock can be installed then the mud and sanding obviously. And also the tile over the shower needs doing, but that should not take too long.

LOL! Awesome!

Oh, and I was glad to help eat the hot dogs Aaron. That was the majority of what I accomplished. That and try to keep up with a mustang on windy roads.
