Airborne sorry about the second block. Start looking at medium duty trucks I think some of them had 390

Alex glad you got on the road. There is a shop here in town that can weld your shroud up. Try Cassidy machine on Broadway if they don't do it they may know someone

Golf cart looks good with those rims and tires. We have had rain every afternoon so it has limited my evening chores.

Are you going to soup up that golf cart hugh

In other news, Apparently when Summit racing gives you a lemon within their return policy they make you call the mfg to deal with it instead of giving you your money back. The wording of their policy is ambiguous so they don't have to say We don't stand by products we sell once they have been tested :/
Off soap box: I now return you to your regularly scheduled program.

I have only purchased a few things from them but it hasn't been any time lately. I got into it with my boss today. I have been averaging 110-115 percent efficiency rating all month. Been real slow the last week or so, they the ability to put you on lead time when there is nothing to work on. He refused and wanted me to go way over on time on my last job of the day which would have dropped my rating. It ticked me off and I told him it was BS. He told me he didn't like the way I was talking to him, I told him I didn't like him messing with my money. Within an hour everyone at Yancey knew we had words. Within 5 minutes he had another job for me to work on.

Busy weekend planned. Detailing the Hummer, wash, wash, etc and changing the fuel filter for our trip to the beach next weekend!! Mowing the grass at the mother in-laws.

I already mowed our yard, weedeated, changed the fuel filter in the boat, checked tire pressures in all the vehicles. Also have the trash loaded to take to the dump.

Hummer is super detailed, just need to do a touch up before we go to the beach next weekend. I also need to put in the new fuel filter. Wifes 4runner is washed and the Lightning too. Took off the trash, mowed the grass at mother in-laws and vacuumed the pool.
