Gotta tell you guys.
There ain't much better than doing the final prep on a truck you've been at for 3 years.
Was out driving the '61 around today. Then poppin back home and tweakin. Then out drivin again.
It's really getting sweet.
Any other dezert rats here? I'm heading out for Easter for 4 days. 12 miles North of Kramer junction (395 and I think the 58) if anyone wants to join. Going out with my crew, garenteed great times!
Well it is Saturday and I'm still out in SoCal for work...gonna be here all weekend.
The good news is I fly home on Tuesday and then we fly as a family on Wednesday headed down to Marco Island Florida for spring break for 8 nights...WOOHOO!!!
Too bad I have to work tomorrow or I'd think about going to Fontana for the NASCAR race...but it is supposed to rain here tomorrow...so that may be interesting too!
Hope everyone has a great day and weekend!
Joe.

10 Amazing Upgrades That Solve Common Ford Truck Owner Headaches
My brother Bob (r2millers) and his wife already have their fifth-wheel set up out there along with a half-dozen others. They go every NASCAR race that's there.
Rained up here pretty-good for a while, but the L.A. River didn't ever get more than about five feet in it here in Reseda.
Brother Bob just sent me a phone-cam photo from their "campsite" out at the Fontana Raceway, and they are around a fire, clear skys, and no wind. However, there are ankle-deep puddles all around, and some of their fifth-wheels are out in the middle of real-shallow "lakes".
That doesn't slow down their fun, however, as he said that earlier while raining they were sitting around the fire, UNDER AN EZ-UP!!
Don't think I'd do that!
