Jeez it's like I'm the NJ to CT branch of Jam sammich shipping. I'm already bringing the incorrect hood that we spent so much time on back up here for Jim.


And on a separate note... F**K TODAY.

Start out the day great... jammin out.

At lawn #5 of the day (out of 25) I notice the front of the trailer sitting VERY low. Look under the truck the hitch is broken because it's so rusty. Drop the trailer and head back to the shop. Swap the trimmers and blowers into the 97 and grab a floor jack so we can lift the trailer tongue high enough to get a block under the jack. Head out and on the way to get the trailer the truck cuts out coming up to a corner. Get it started back up and go hook onto the trailer. Head for Madison Mini right next to Saybrook Ford since it's food time. On the way there the truck wants to die without throttle at times other times it's fine. I suggest getting a CPS from the dealership since we're there but what do I know... I just spend all my free time doing Powerstroke stuff. Head back to the shop and get the F550 and the open trailer. At this point we're on the last truck we have available to us other than mine. Get everything done head to the last lawn of the day. Mow it and load the mowers up. Then the guy from across the street comes outside. We were supposed to mow his lawn we just mowed his neighbor's lawn without realizing since his mailbox is across the street.

The moral of the story is:
1: Rust sucks
2: Don't buy non-OEM sensors
3: Trust me dangit
4: Double check house numbers

Although the neighbor said their lawn never looked so good and asked for a card so it might not be all bad there...

I wouldnt say officially.

 

The upper tooth that lost the filling is doing fine.

The tooth beneath is chipped a tiny bit, I ignore it as best I can.

How can one 'officially close' a thread when there are questions left unanswered?
