Thanks Grant. THis ole fella has the itch again. I used to brag about keeping up to the 20 year olds but not no more Looks like i'm the oldest guy out there these days. I was telling the guys this weekend, cause they were razzing me about the new Yamaha gear I bought 2 years ago and it's still new, that I used to be no show and all go. Old gear, older race quad ect ect, so this season i'm going for the all show, no go season

Seriously. Tip of the ice berg my friend. I don't know how they stay in business.
It was a two minute convo as my son thought that was the coolest thing ever. Body lifted off a truck. Honestly I would have preffered not knowing the details and am glad they didn't go into it with me. Would have been a we bit unproffesional. As my dealings with them progressed they actually did tell me about a dodge tranny they had many issues with as they were helping me with my issue. They went above an beyond for me and i'm currently saving some coin to have them pull apart my fresh rebuild that i'm having problems with currently from another shop. I don't know ya, but I trust what your saying is true. With 2 posts in the forum both clearly indicating an issue with the shop I would imagine, not sure why you yourself not even the owner of the truck, is so addiment on the subject. I ain't here to judge, pls don't take my post the wrong way, I just hope this fella and you get this particular matter all sorted out and we can enjoy getting to know another member in the Manitoba section of this forum. Maybe two if the guy will join The more Ford folks the better!!


Well I just had some wicked ribs, changed the longjohns and heading back to work for a couple 3 hours. I want to get this roof painted so I can finish up the walls and call it done by afternoon tomorrow. Quote to do and material run for the next one tomorrow evening. Have a great evening everyone!!
Side note but a HOT Topic here: Weather is looking WICKED for this up coming weekend here

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.
As to not trash the actual company we shouldn't mention their name. But I'd have to agree with Trent Mrs.Plow. Introduce yourself Newbie has to buy coffee at the next meet up at Timmies tho





Heyya Trent.
Appoligies for not replying your final text this weekend. Drivers meeting then practice shortly after then I saw it. Was a funny one!!! Ahhhhh Jail, to funny.

I got the weekend outside Morris!! Worked in the rain yesterday raking gravel and fluffing around the pine trees we planted around the yard. Worked inside garage today, but she was drizzlin all day and evening. April showers are a month late again but that usually means hot weather is right around the corner for us all to enjoy.

Curtis, your Explorer is not over 81inches in width? My 150 is and we had to install rear marker lights. Placed these on the upper tailgate.
