Unhappy Sad Day

What a sad day, watching as my '90 F250 was being towed away by a Dodge, one more victim of the E40D weak link.

Big Orn I don't know about flowers, maybe donations for a Trans rebuild
kepler4 yeah that dodge was in for repairs not too long ago
bterry defiantly after dark left at 9:00P.M.

But once the bills settle down (if that ever happens) it is going in for an overhaul and all of the upgrades. Guess I can't complain the poor truck has over a quarter of a million miles.
