Get it done! Truck runs awesome. The reason I didn't fire it up is somebody who lives close to me made a comment that he didn't like how loud it was so I was trying to be courteous. At WOT it sounds sick!

Yeah your telling me Gerry, I am locked in this lease until August. I am gonna be looking for a house around that time so I don't run into these issues. When is your new truck supposed to be here?

I wish it was that easy. Being away from home for 13 hours every day for work and having only one day off each week, plus rotating shifts, I end up with my day "off" being full of errands and chores (groceries, house cleaning, yard work, etc.)
It will happen soon - even if I have to pay someone else to do it. I AM jealous though. I'm also glad to have a job that keeps me busy enough to complain about the hours.

Thanks Gig. If any of you guys get bored and happen to be passing through the east side of Houston, feel free to drop by and borrow the keys for a while. I usually drive the beater to work anyway, so the truck will be in the driveway, and there's a chest full of tools in the garage. I'll fill the fridge with beer the night before. Please wait until the truck is back up and running before drinking the fridge empty though!
There's a pretty decent Harley sitting in the garage feeling pretty unloved and lonesome too.

At the moment, they are in my pocket, as I do drive my truck to work on weekends so it doesn't sit all the time. I drive the beater during the week, so after this evening, the truck will be in the driveway and the keys will be on my counter. Come on by! The laptop and tuner are sitting in my office at home. The EGR delete and DPF delete pipe are both in the garage - next to or on top of the tool chest. I'm sure you can locate the fridge with little to no instruction. All I need to know is what flavor of beer you prefer, and when to load the fridge.
