I`m doing good Shaun. What did you have done to your truck this time?
It`s been quite cool here too Perry, that rain we had certainly put a stop to harvest. I think it`s quite a few hills between us and where John lives.
Working for salary and family does have it`s ups and downs Grant. Where in automotive strikes your fancy, in parts maybe?

I don't think John would like his first trip west Morris, driving into some of our valleys would feel to much like driving off the edge of the planet.lol

Another cool and cloudy day here with more showers, rain in the forecast for next week. Harvest is at a stand still.
For the most part Sk is fairly flat Perry, John, we have no mountains.

Happy Saturday all. Morris; If I went back to the automotive ind., I'd prefer to be a service capacity. I'm feeling terrible today. the power went out for 4hrs last night. I have sleep apnoea, and use a breathing machine for sleep. I was up from 1am till 5am. I've been using the machine for about 8 yrs now, and I can't sleep without it. Kalan was home sick yesterday, and Jordan last night. I may have the bug too. Kalan made it thru the 1st round of try-outs for AA hockey, and has an exhibition game tonight. I'll be staying home. The team will be announced this Thursday. Have a great day guy's.

Morris I had the wheels, tires, rear bumper and leveling kit installed. Had a new issue crop up today it will have to go to the dealer for though. Oil pressure idiot gauge is saying no oil pressure. Plenty of oil and motor sounds fine. Will call them Monday morning to get it in there and looked at. I'm leaning towards a bad sending unit.

A service capacity might be cool Grant, hopefully you`d enjoy it. A bummer that you felt terrible today, my wife uses a breathing machine for sleep as well. It`s been a real blessing for her. Now we both can sleep.
Good luck to Kalan in his exhibition game.
It sounds like you spent a small bundle on the new wheels, tires, rear bumper and leveling kit plus the install Shaun. Hopefully that issue just a a bad sending unit but likely it`s covered by warranty.

I get to hook up my nose to an o2 concentrator every night also but the way that I see it as, is that it helps make sure that I wake up in the morning.

Truck is running just fine Morris. Biggest clue to me is the fact the gauge did a sweep to normal 3 times yesterday. No abnormal noise from the motor at all.
