Good sunny Tuesday morning Jim and MN!

Was at the dealer last night dropping off da wife's car for warranty work and I couldn't help but cruise the new truck lot. They have the nice red again, and I miss my oil burner. Might have to look at trading big blue. The prices still scare the heck out of me.

Got the lawn mowed last night. Had to avoid a good part of the backyard. No sense getting stuck in the open water hazard. Lol

Also cut the grass for the neighbor too.

Meh, I drove one before buying the gasser. I have no need for it, but it would be fun.

The 2015 trucks have more power.

No sense getting your paid off if you are going to trade it off. Yeah, that's it.

She has a '10 Mustang GT. The 6-way power passenger seat quit moving. I did manage to move it up (made a lot of complaining noises) as I thought the wife most likely had something wedged underneath it that caused the problem, but no. Turns out something in the track broke, which is kinda funny since this car doesn't get driven much and the seat gets adjusted even less. First time I've ever bought an extended warranty but appears as though it might pay off.

I definitely want 900lb-ft, I just don't want to pay for it.

I would like a red truck again too.

Who moves the passenger seat anyway?

I don't even move the driver seat in my Mustang. Lol
