Welcome to November! It has been raining pretty steady up here since early this morning.

Everyone got their popcorn to watch the annual Bay Area House Races?

Rain started here just a little bit ago (now 10:35 AM). We've racked up a staggering 0.02" so far. Better check the flood gates.

I don't know why we don't get any of your rain anymore. We sure could use it. it is cold and cloudy right now, but there is no rain in the forecast.

Does that mean we're all going for a ride in that new car?

Love to hear about people's experience with the Mach-E.

We ended up with a grand total of 14/100" of rain yesterday. Not a gully washer by any means, but everything is still wet this morning.

Sorry to hear that Jim. I dumped another 6/10” this morning.

Currently waiting on the Transmission shop to finish rebuilding the E40D in the Bronco. Not only did it have all original 1993 components in it, the center support also has several cracks in it.

The good news is that my mechanic has a donor transmission that will not cost me anything.

I may finally get to drive my truck in the next couple of weeks... I hope! 3 months in the shop to get the entire driveline overhauled. The supply chain nightmares are affecting everyone... had to make custom u-bolts for the new leaf spring kit! Jeez...

Sounds good. Always nice to hear when someone gets to drive their vehicles again.

Next Nor Cal Get Together I'll give people hot laps. I haven't driven it much yet, but I'm pretty sure it's faster to 60 than my 624 HP Shelby.

We have not had a GTG in a long time. Maybe we should plan one for after the holidays?
