After working 70+ days straight, I wanted to take a day off. I slept in until 6am this morning. How refreshing. LOL

Great call on the race, Steve.

Good to hear that business is booming. Or, maybe you are doing the work of the 10 guys who used to work there? Wish we were busy - been slow for way too long. I'm afraid I will forget how to work.

Hey Paul, good to see your smiling fonts today.

I just defrosted 2 gallons of water out of the freezer. Not counting whatever is trapped in the towels. Now to clean up the coils and the floor/wall behind. Pig coming home tomorrow.

I don't see this as a long term relationship.

Welcome back.
Also missed your smiling little face.

Just to be clear, I'm not recommending that guy. And not saying anything against him either. The new owner, Tony, was a guide for Bert. So he just took over the operation, and definitely knows the property. I would suggest you ask him about the type of terrain on the properties he has access to. Tony is a good dude and we all liked him. Just not sure that he has good properties any more. Definitely interested in how it goes for you.

Has anyone here dealt with getting parts from Sunrise Ford (WeHo, or Fontana location?)

I'm really considering doing the V/B swap on my X and someone in the X forum, from NorCal says that this Sunrise Dealer has prices similar to Tousley but since it's in SoCal it'd beat having to pay shipping.

Or does anyone have any other dealers I should check out and get a quote from?

Definitely gonna need to price the V/B's and the F-350 30mm rear way bar
