Thanks! Haven't quite figured that out yet, me only having Tue-Wed off makes date nights difficult. Especially because her son is always underfoot, and I'd like to be alone with her when I ask.

Spent all morning at Balise Ford with the Excursion while they attempted to track down a vibration. Test drove a 2013 F150 with the Max Tow package and am VERY tempted to pull the trigger...

The Ex is staying with them while they dig deeper to track it down.

It's got the EcoBoost and 3.73s, the window sticker is attached. I could have it for $35,985. Of course I'd then have to be willing to part with the Ex after all I've done to it.

I've been quite annoyed with the number of near perfect trucks I have found on craigslist and autotrader that are even cheaper than what I paid for my car. Son of a bee sting!

Bartlett finally got me my own climbing gear.

And I managed to turn a day where we were done at noon into an 8.5 hour day just pressure washing trucks, fixing lights, and sweeping the floor. Ended up with somewhere around 45.5 hours on the week. Giggity.
