A few reasons. For work I need to get a long box. This short box sucks ***. But it lived up to it's reputation. Trans went out once already. Warranty covered it, so no biggie. But deleting a truck here isn't easy. Its inspected yearly. I dont want to deal with emissions ****. Plus with the miles I put on, I'll switch out on a regular basis. So why bother?

Good morning fellas!

We made it to March! Spring is just around corner.

Emissions! BLAH! SO glad we don't have inspections here. Florida used to do them but I believe my brother said they quit as it became to costly for the state to keep it running.

Good morning guys.

Not too much Troy. Still need to get the obituary done. Make some calls to family still. I am sure a few more things.

Good morning Jay, Troy and the rest of the crew!

Super Tuesday! Yippee! Not really, unless it means I can drink some frosty beverages while at work. Now that would be SUPER!
