Morning Steve and the rest of MN.

I told you it would snow/rain now. It always works when I wash a vehicle. I guess I should have done that sooner.

I like that snowmowheeler its kinda cool. That took some frabricating. Your right Tom, we may all need one of those for years like this. I wonder if you could run that on the state trails? Hmmmmmm.........it is a snowmobile technically.

Well, time to make the donuts.

So our cad guy got lippy this morning and made noise about how fast his Jeep was so I called him on the carpet. First he said that I have to come out west where he lives to go a little speed comparison. I said OK, when and where? Then he said I have to take the tune out. I said OK, when and where? Now he doesn't want to. LOLOL!!

Yes there was. In those TSB's I believe one of them talks about that issue causing other issues.

Nope! I give the guy credit for building something that most wouldn't. I would not have a use for it but looks like he did a decent job of mounting it. Needs to be a longer wheelbase and it would look better.

If you would move closer to the cities you could tow our Dodges.

The lack of snow will cost us a little business in the spring because the snowmelt causes ground faults which means a service call.

You can say that again! We just figured it up and and compared to last year at this same point I am close to $10,000 behind where I should be! Sure am glad I am not trying to make payments on a new wrecker or something! Funny thing is last night a wrecker salesmen stopped by trying to sell me a newer one and I said boy did you pick the wrong winter to try that! LOL
