Same here, it rained most of the day so I could light the big pile of tree branches and trimmings.

That`s just how I feel after going for a cruise in one of mine.

Overall I don't think we can complain. It was hot last week. We had another nice one toda as well. Nights are still cooler but I'm ok with that. It keeps the river from getting overly high.

It`s been a very cool spring here so I`m looking forward to some heat this week.
Time to shut it down Chris, have a good evening, what`s left of it.

Morning Fellow Ford Folks
Outstanding weekend!!
3rd in Pro and 3rd in Pro Open classes. Accomplished my goal for the day and had to call it quits Saterday and skip Sundays races. Had barely anything for the 4th Moto and decided to up the stamina/training before going 8 moto's in 2 days. I chopped the throttle on the face of a 60' triple and almost nosed over. (arm pump basically) Thank god for the panic rev and neck brace. Hit the bars pretty hard but didn't stop, stayed on it best I could for remainder of moto.
Sunday my little guy and me spread a t/l of soil around the yard/garden. Then we redid the path, prepped for some new stone purchasing this week. Late Mothers day gift the the lovely other half. THEN, we spread 11 yards of gravel around the low spots in the driveway. That little mini-me of mine was out there from 10am till 10pm workin his buns off. Luckiest dad EVER. Monday I could barely move my legs or arms so it was a seed and level driveway with the rake kinda day
Hope you all enjoyed the long weekend

To top it all off, the kid that owns it has paid for it in full and they refuse to give the truck back to him & he is resorting to legal action to get it back.

Totally clueless and bad work.
Welcome aboard Mrs.Plow
I'm unsure of the details other than what I was told upon inquiring about the one with the engine out when getting the tour of the facitlity. Personally i've heard nothing but great things about that shop. If it ends up going to court then the truth always comes out and I'm hoping they can work everything out. The kid/guy/man whoever owns it must be working hard and doing pretty good to own and build a truck like that. Kudo's to him, cause i'd really like to see that baby go one day If he paid the bill in full and hasn't gotten it back there has to be more to the story. Honestly, I hope they can settle things without going the legal route. It sucks for both parties involved.

The young man has been without his work truck since January. Funny you've only heard good things, ie - the BS they want you to hear. They're not gonna tell you about the 6.7 Cummins tranny that was out 5 times before the customer got fed up and took it elsewhere, or another 6.7 that they serviced and left all the pan bolts loose on or the Ford tow truck that they have had to do 4-5 times. Seriously. Tip of the ice berg my friend. I don't know how they stay in business.

May I chirp up and write something. Mrs Plow you may have a valid point. Just difficult to take you seriously when your profile has little to no information about who you are. For all this site knows you could be someone only on here to talk thrash about Trans Tech (they did ok work on my axels of Toyota).

Do you drive a Ford? What do you drive? Fill out your profile more so you can be taken more seriously. A person that has nothing to hide would do this.

Thank you and have a great day.
