So I get a call today from one of my local customers (I sell steel for the construction industry, mainly industrial facilities, but some commercial and institutional buildings as well) that wants me to help design an addition to the local Ford dealership. w00t! I hope we get this job. That would be kind of cool. They are adding some heavy duty service bays because their truck market is growing so fast.

OK Darren
A little education is need here 
You need to have a full grasp of the art of communication
You understand BS..... The senseless disscussion of nothing, solely for the purpose of wasting time. An example of the uses of this form of communication....... Drinking
Lends itself as a good excuse to consume significant quanities of Booze 
Lies This is just senseless attempts to squirm oneself out of some Stupid, Hair brain FU*K - UP This is sometimes confused with Sea Stories 
Not good to do this, it does cause confussion 
Fairy Tales....... Now, this is kids stuff.
Tends to fall into the catergory of Dreams and Lies. A little mix of both. Sometimes called "Wishfull Thinking" 
But not that simple.
Finally is the highly skilled and refined art of Sea Stories......... This is usually associated with highly skilled and educated Sailors
Now .... Now.... Hang in there
Sea Stories bring with them the expertly balanced placement of truth, carefully mixed highly intriging fiction with a sprinkle of hummor..
Now you have gained information beyond belief

DAMN Roy, that is one heck of a post there buddy. I am not that bright so I have gained information just not sure whose belief it is beyond.
But I am going to print it out and study it so I will get back to you!
1. You didn't answer my question.
2. I am so busy and stressed at work I am glad I took a minute today to pop in and get a hell of a good laugh, THANKS ROY
Don't stress out too much Darren....think about the lake.
Thanks for this Gavin. Carroll was a great guy and a genius with cars. He will be greatly missed.

I'm not sure how many of you have had the NOx flash done yet. I had mine done the other day and the truck is shifting a lot smoother now than it was before. The 2-3 shift isn't messed up like it was and I'm not having the shift flares like before. I'll get to put a few more miles on her this weekend when I stretch her legs a bit.
The only thing I can't figure out is there is a burning smell that smells like burning manure. I've checked the whole truck over and can't find a thing wrong and no signs of anything burning. It's not in regen or anything like that either. Strange.
Doesn't matter.....I'm still loving this truck!

Stumbled on this pic of my truck when it was pretty new and 100% stock. She still worked pretty hard back then even with the CEL on LOL
