Hey... doesn't she know that murder is against the law?
(It's always better to ask for forgiveness that to ask for permission....... said the devil on your shoulder)

Naw.... I understand.... good choice on your part....
(but still....think about it.)

yeah cz that's how marriage works LOL
Always easier to ask forgiveness than permission just make sure whatever you buy you can sleep in lol.

Always good to have a separate garage/barn so you can buy something and park it there then months later when she sees it be like what that old thing? I've had that forever

New issue has arrived! Went to do some alternator testing and all the sudden there is this rather loud tick. It does not sound like any lifter tick I have ever heard and seems to be outside the engine almost near the clutch fan. Didn't know if maybe you guys had any ideas? I know my GMC had a tick for awhile that was a loose spark plug but they all seem tight. Oil pressure and level are good.

Exhaust leak? Does it get louder when you get into the go-pedal, and quiet down when you let off?
