Yeah and now zero lot line has been approved so you'll see more of these... when one house catches fire the whole street goes up in flames within minutes. In Alberta, Calgary started this first and now it's spreading.
I'm finally moved out to the county... so now there's a few hundred feet between my place and any neighbours.

I would love to get out of town, but with little kids and no money we will be in spruce grove for a while. At least we can get out on the weekends.

Thanks Guys!
My kids will be hitting college in about 15 years (if they are smarter than their old man). Maybe it will be worth something by then....LOL.
It actually would have been a good investment if we didn't buy it just before this......

We got screwed to the tune of 60k per unit when the contractor walked off the job with 90% of the cash........
Almost thru it now tho........

Well it happened...
Lots of city driving today with slow traffic everywhere so have been driving it slow and easy all day.
So on my way home from work after entering the highway I noticed the torque converter had not locked by the time I was in 4th gear so I thought what the heck, engine is at OpTemp, soot clean out time; pedal to the floor!
Message Center: DO DA DO
Me: Oh crap...
Turns out, 800 MTE on DEF.
False alarm. Carry on.
(I've never seen the DEF message before on my truck.)

I have been running the tank low on purpose to see what happens.
37,000+ miles in and had to let the computer alert me about something for a change.
It just had to happen at the second I decided to "goof off" otherwise it wouldn't have spooked me.

Happy thanksgiving gig, have a good weekend!
I am taking tomorrow off and we are headed to lethbridge to seee my parents, about 1,000 kM round trip.
I will be needing new tires pretty soon so a big burnout is in order. But not for another couple of months
Have a good one!
