Well it is in North Baltimore. Just a few miles from where I work. We hold our graduation the same day as the race so the seniors dont go there and get drunk.

Let's see, dropped the truck off at the garage to have the left front end checked out. It has been making some odd noises and some of them sounded similar to when the lower ball joint broke. Found out late this afternoon that the ball joints are good, but the wheel bearing is shot and the front brakes are almost non existent. So it is sitting at the garage and it will get worked on Monday once I know what it is going to cost.

Finally got my eye exam done along with getting my new glasses and prescription sunglasses ordered.

What,the truck? Wheel bearing looks like it's part of the hub along with pads and rotors. I guessing it will be a $400-500 repair.
