I would say the 6r and 10r are capable already. Depends if the Master clutch is up to it.
That would make for nice plowing. What do you guys think ?
Seems to me shifting your truck between Drive and Reverse accomplishes the same thing as a shuttle...

Well, I won't take drugs. I've been fighting through it so far and it seems to be hurting a bit less. I talked to a good buddy who has had tons of shoulder issues, and he's actually never been under the knife. All physical therapy. My insurance will cover it, so I think I'm going to go in for an evaluation and see if that is a viable route or not. Certainly worth a shot in my mind, they worked miracles with my tennis elbow a few years back.

Tom, great looking trailer and shop! Can't wait for our turn! We may be taking a ride out to the Harrisburg RV show this weekend just to stroll around.

Dave, that's one hell of a hitch! Very nice!

Thanks! Yep, that door is 12' wide x 14' tall. The others are 10'x10'

And looks like the first problem with the RV already. Before I got home from work, my wife went out to do some things in it and turned the heat on. She set it on 60, was out there for a bit, then went inside to fix supper. She went out later and it was 75 degrees! She turned it off, turned the temp down, cycled through everything and nothing would shut it off. I told her to switch it to AC and they were both on! I finally told her to just turn the gas off. I was with the kids at archery practice and didn't get a chance to take a look tonight, so will do that tomorrow. Hopefully this is just a hiccup...

Yesterday I finally found time time to install 4’ LED lights in my pole shed. This was long overdue.



I’m surprised at how much light they provide.
That's a little dark for my garage, my garage use UFO LED high bay, i bought several lights from Chiuer, they wlll make a make a illumination silmulation report on computer to make sure every corner light is relatively evenly, i like that very much, they tell me how much watt and qty of fixtures to be needed. And after installation, the lighting effect is out of expectation, Amazing

That's an odd one Tom. Sounds like a thermostat issue as opposed to a furnace issue if the AC was allowed to run at the same time as the furnace. I'm sure it won't be your last bug to get sorted as they all have them when new. I attacked most of mine as I did my initial mods right after purchase. You'll get it sorted...

Hope ya feel better soon Scott. If PT works, that's great. Mine is nerve so it's not something PT will address really. I don't mind taking meds if it's once in a great while but since it's been happening more and more frequently, I figured now is the time to get it sorted. Plus, our insurance got a good deal better as of the 1st of the year. X-Ray and reading was free and MRI was only a $100 co-pay. Now to hear what the doc wants to start with... Will they jump straight to surgery or start with some Cortisone shots? I never thought I'd see the day where my report showed (besides the bone spur at C6) that I havescoliosisand arthritis in my neck! Ugh, an old man I now am....

Morning buddy! Up since 4 with a dead right arm. Been happening for a few years periodically, but woke me up at 330 this morning. Got a nerve somewhere as it just won't stay awake. One doc says it's carpal tunnel, but as I explained to him, that will not make the entire arm go numb. Anyway. Hope you feel better buddy!

Guess what??? More rain for Georgia today!. I had to look at my address yesterday because I'd swear it's like living in Seattle!!

No fun there buddy! I get arm pressure when my neck acts up. My whole right arm tingles and feels like it's in a blood pressure air cuff that they pump up to get your BP reading. Never numb though.

We're in a deep freeze up here. Not super cold but hanging in around 10 this morning. Back to warm tomorrow. It's been a very warm winter in general up here with just a couple shots of really cold days. The 10 day shows temps in the mid forties for most days. I've said for most of Feb that day for day, the weather is more like March. In other words, the number always seems right but the month is wrong. As long as the house sale goes through, an early spring would be very welcome this year for us!
