Good evening everyone!

Quite the bag of bolts you have there Cory. What exactly are you building for a tree fort?


Frustrated about the van. Dealer still can't give me an answer on what's going on. They're not impounding all the recalled vans that were sold over the last year, so why can't they just let me have the darn thing?

Well by the size of bolts we are using I'd say a small house.


Tell them you found one somewhere else and see what they say.

I could, but I don't think I'd get anywhere. I called down to Rochester Ford on Friday and they told me to not bother driving down because they couldn't sell it to me until the recall is sorted out. I'm not the only one:

Finally took a pic of Sunday's handy work.




After the rain comes through I need to get the sticker residue off from the Edge stickers on my back window and the powerstroke stickers on the doors.
Truck looks good Jim! I am a bit partial to red trucks....

Those are just a tad on the large size! Time to build a house.
