I had plenty to drink, that wasn't a problem! Did the zoo Friday, but moved 5 tons of landscape rock Saturday and Sunday. I was beat Sunday night! Spent yesterday cleaning Black's interior, she was a mess, and it was way overdue!

As much work as it is, I like keeping the vehicles clean. I certainly dont like moving landscape rock though!

Well, at least I'm done with the rock! I've been so busy doing other stuff, I've been neglecting the truck. I do need to get the drivers seat recovered, pretty worn after 8 years, and needs new floor mats in the front.

Always something isnt it. How expensive is the seat cover? Are you planning on doing all of them so they match?

I'm going to go with the factory leather cover, so I'll just do the drivers seat.
about 600 some for the seat, and 700 some for the back. I'll check with my nephew,who works at a dealer, and see if he can get me a discount on them.

Well, I'll see what I can do. Wade, up in Massachusetts, can order parts for cost sometimes, I'll check with him also.
