Good morning everyone!

Glad you're getting some sleep Ethan. How many miles is your commute?

Detroit Lakes oughta be nice Troy. Last weekend the me, my wife, her cousin and brother all went up to her grandparents cabin just south by Pelican Rapids. Had some beautiful weather when we were up there.

Starting to get used to this second shift thing. With a little melatonin last night I was able to sleep about 8 hours. I am hoping that some melatonin for the next few days will get me in a good enough rhythm that I can sleep decent every night, only time will tell though.

In the meantime, still looking for another truck, or maybe a car now, spending a lot more on fuel than I thought.

Have a good morning everyone!
Good morning Baatzy! Nice area up there for sure. We will be going right through Pelican Rapids on the way there. Glad your getting some sleep.

Good morning Cory! Try and behave this weekend. I know things can get a little crazy in Holdingford.

Morning again Everyone,

With all these pictures of nice vehicles rolling around, I might have to get a few of my truck to throw up here. Pretty decent shape overall, but gotta POR15 the frame and underside of the body before long. Also gotta replace floor pans I guess, kinda disappointed when I found that out. Anyone know anybody that does/likes bodywork or painting?

I am currently putting on about 50 miles a day for work. It seems like I am getting a lot of extra miles on though from going other areas. I changed oil 5/18 at 256k and I'll be due by Monday at the rate I'm putting miles on for the 5k oil change.

I'd like to find a diesel jetta or something like that but I don't know how easy that will be.

I bought an '07 Kia a few months back for $3,500 and am really happy with it so far. 30 MPG, and we've put about 5,000 miles on it in just over two months. Highly recommend a commuter car to keep miles on the truck.
