Good evening guys.
500 pages, congrats WIH truckers! Thanks for all the fun John.
I just finished watching the race, Danica kicked Ricky's azz. No question which rookie finished on top Sunday evening.

I got my sticking front brake caliper replaced under warranty today and am now enjoying decent fuel economy again! Must have been wasting all that precious energy as heat all this long.
Excellent dealer service, the guys went above and beyond and took the time to hear me out and make time in their work schedule to get this done even though I had just walked in without even making an appointment or anything.
The 5 other dealers I phoned basically said 'booked solid until Thursday/Friday/Next Monday at the earliest, thanks bye! *click*'

Good morning WIH fans. Hope you all had a restful night. Rained here and looks like a bit more scheduled for today. That will wash away some snow! Hope you all have a great Tuesday!

Y'all can keep that rain. We're getting the best weather of the year this week, but I guess they're calling for rain on Friday... still, 4 out of five days nice enough to get the bike out of the garage makes for a great week.
-My truck must be getting lonely, though. I think I'll drive it to work on Friday

OK, spill it buddy, I definately know what dealer(s) you are NOT talking about. Or is this a trick...... Excelent dealer service does not exist around here.

I am hopeing to unlock my hubs soon and get back an MPG or 2, I have been terrible lately.

We leave May 2 and come back May 25. I am really looking forward to it. Work has been BRUTAL. I have never took that long off in my life....... Last year I only took 4 days off all year..... People can always get ahold of me and drive me nutz so it's not worth it.

But not this time, they are on their own for 3 weeks. A couple of our employees said "God help us"

I can hardly wait

For a couple of years it was just the owner and me.
There are 7 of us now tho......
