Happy Saturday Mornin'all. If it wasn't for my job in transportation, my truck would not be as far along as it has. I just received a shipment from Speedway, and Mid fifty's. $20.00 shipping to Kansas City. Then have a driver pick it up. My driver's are aloud around $800.00 US per trip. I give them receipts in my name. Usually when the truck pulls up to customs, they don't want to do the paperwork. I end up getting it tax free. Takes 5 minutes to order the parts, get them in a week, then it takes 6 month's to install them. I'm taking the 1st week of September off to work on the truck. I have Dawn's blessing for that. All the house and yard work shoud be done by then. Kalan will be back at school. I should be motivated. Sunny here today with a forcasted high of 30C feel like 35C. Have a great day guy's.

Happy late and a lazy Sat morning folks. 
Once was more than enough cost for me, what`s the story behind that John?
Good show Grant, the exchange is bad enough without shipping and the 10% Canadian taxes on top of everything.
We had our almost 30°C yesterday, now it`ll be a much nice 22°C for the local Cruise Weekend.

you must be getting a deal on your taxes we pay 13% where I'm at..
I actually copied the hanging brake bracket and was going to use it on this truck but by the time you bought a booster and master cylinder it was just as cheap to buy the whole damn thing so that's what I did...lol

Welcome back Colin....bummer about the holidays ending tho.
Man, I`m getting old.... I forgot you have two trucks John. We were paying 5% provincial PST and now it`s up to 6% plus 5% GST. Ont is paying 13%, is that the combined PST And GST?

We don`t have HST here (yet) but after the last provincial budget it`s pretty much the same thing as a lot of provincial exempted items are now taxed. We have 6% provincial tax plus 5% federal tax.

Our gas is 88.9 and diesel is 85.9 at our local Costco, it`s the only place I buy my fuel other than a spring delivery to the farm. What`s your fuel price John? Lately I`ve been driving my 01 Super Duty Super Crew with a 7.3.
