Still Running Strong

I had my 15K service done yesterday. The guys at Cross Roads in Cary did another perfect job. I also needed an inspection. Guess what? My plates expired February 14th. They had a young man drive me to the DMV and wait while I got cash from the ATM and stood in line for 20 minutes to pay $65 for my tags.

Anyway, the truck is still doing absolutely great.

There was a guy there that has a 350 King Ranch. He was in for his 15K service as well. He had been "flashed" several months ago. We started talking about mileage and towing and he got real upset. He could not believe my mileage, so I showed him my log. Needless to say, he was not very happy. I directed him to this site, maybe he will sign in and join the cause.

FYI
