Happy Sunday Mornin'all. Morris; I drive a 2010 Ford Lariat Supercrew 4X4. 4.6L 140,000km. I really like the truck. I've got some rust in the rear cab corner's, but I'll fix that this summer. They had a problem with the 3rd brake light leaking water, and running down to the cab corner's. Perry; the upgrade will also add value to the property. Have a great day guy's.

Good morning guys.
No Peavey mart within 50 miles Perry? I wouldn`t like that as it`s been my go to store lately. Those Costco 2 bulb LED`s must be super bright, I have their single ones that really light up a big area really well.
Is that Super Crew is your personal truck or company truck Grant? Do you get better mileage with premium fuel?
This is our third cloudy day this week John, at least it`s not been windy which is real nice.

I use premium and mid range fuel in both my 56's but they don't run any better or give better mileage, I just don't want to have regular in the system when parked over the idle months of winter. Premium is better for the real high performance engines and only a waste of money on your everyday runners as far as I'm concerned..

Good afternoon

Somebody ordered some snow and told them to drop it off here so now I have an excuse to watch the race while I hurry up and wait for it to stop snowing.

It would be nice to bring this house up to this centuries standards, the landlord is somewhat progressive and with Steve down the street walking through this place it should help convince them that I won't be moving for a long long time. This landlord knew of me before I even moved in so that helps. This place needs some obvious electrical improvements including the line from the pole as its almost touching the garage roof and is covered in snow right now, that alone should be a motivating factor.

Morris; the truck is my own, and since I don't pay for fuel, premium it is. It's also all my brother puts in his gas engine's.

So far I haven`t had any problems with having regular gas in my vehicles sitting all the winter John, maybe I should put premium before before parking for the 5 months of winter. I agree that it`s a waste of money on vehicles that don`t require it.
More show this afternoon Perry? All that happened here last night was just a bit of mist coming down. All the Fords are running in the front row today....right?
Nice to have a progressive landlord, I hate the sight of a run down place.
Did you buy your truck new Grant? It looks nice, well kept up. The one beside it looks a lot like my unfinished 56 M100.

It looks to be in really excellent shape Grant. I bought my F150 new in 2012, it`s only got 51,000 kms since I don`t use it a lot.

All I know about the race is that one of the drivers that I cheer for won the other crashed himself out of contention.
