I gave up on using apps for posting and just use the regular internet search on my phone and I post just the same as from my computer. Much easier for me anyway.

Cory - for now I plan to keep the Durango because it was Jake's truck and he was so proud of being able to buy a newer vehicle... Dave took a look at it before he bought it and gave him the thumbs up (thanks again Dave)....
Things might change down the road. I just hope it runs alright when I am done with it..
I have to buy tires next.
265/60/18. Prefer American made highway tread and a reasonable price so if anyone has any recommendations that would be swell.

yes, it's a pusher, I bought it used in 91, the engine has been on 4 decks during that time. Clearly it's time I learn to scrape the wet grass out....

Good evening Jay. I've got a few miles in already. More this weekend is my plan. Sounds like you're too busy to ride lately.

Good morning everyone!

We made it to Friday!

Not sure what to recommend for tires Randy. Haven't bought much highway tread tires over the years.
