Good luck on the losing weight, I'm doing that same thing too. I'd really like to hit 200 or a little less, but I'd be happy with that number.
Maybe that'll work out for you!

Sweet ride Josh. Hope it brings you many miles of good service.


So my excursion AC has been acting up. Only on really humid or rainy days. Otherwise it's pumping out cold air. If it's raining it will start blowing ambient temp air into the cab. When it stops it goes back to cold. Condenser? I had it tested for refrigerant and leaks. They said it had plenty and no leaks. What's the deal? Sensor?

Check to make sure the plug on the compressor isn't getting wet or the plug on it. Sounds like something gets mlwet and quits.

Hook up some A\C gauges and watch the pressures, if everything is good, then spray the outside of the truck with the hose pipe and keep watching. If it's a sensor then it will eventually go bad. If it's a connector or water shorting out the wiring, then you'll find it when you spray the connector, it'll show up real fast on the gauges.

Guitar day fell apart, so I hung around the house and got the yard mowed, then some marinated chicken breasts on the grill.
We're sending another Ka'Bluey payment out Friday, then just one more and he's paid for.....again.

Mostly stuff by The Eagles, America, Bob Seger, a few Tom Petty songs. Anything along those lines, I still listen to the same stuff I grew up listening to.

How about Hotel California? I've started learning that one.
