Happy Sunday mornin'all. Yardwork, Hockey and baseball today. I need a vacation, so I can get my truck in the garage. Have a great day all. Curtis: my team was supposed to be a AA team, but we only had 8 player's, so they dropped us to A ball. The other teams know that and will do anything to win. Not our fault. It's for the kid's, but most coaches and parent's are pretty **** on how they look. Thumbs up. Morris why can we add those picture attachment's?

Morning boys. A dreary Sunday today. A little rain and overcast. Constructing a little larger pen for my chicks. They're growing fast, taking to small flights Time to get them a little higher walls and more space to stretch their wings. We lost 3 last week, I think the heat was a bit too much. Partly the weather, partly my fault as I should have known to move the lamps away from them before the sun got high in the sky. The rest seem to be faring well though.

Had the kids for a cruise in the Cobra last night. Always a fun time. A Hyundai Genesis and Mitsubishi Eclipse were taunting me. Lucky for their ego's I had the kids with me, otherwise there would be some broken spirits...

Have a great Sunday everyone!!

Evening everyone. This is my last week of shift work for while, working nights till Wednesday morning then I get to get up Thursday morning and go back to straight days... Not looking forward to that.

Curtis, have you got your shift flair fixed yet or is that what you are getting fixed?

Sherwin, I probably could have beat those cars in my truck lol. You wouldn't have needed to try to win in the Cobra.

Have a flair from 3-5. Goes into neutral when in drive (kinda feels like starting in 2nd gear) and a shimmy shake when TC locks up in OD when cold. Pretty much what happend right after paying the bill when it was build Took it back but no diffinitive answers regarding pressures, codes and he just kept wanting to throw parts at it so I called TT and am taking to Jason.

Going in this morning. Can't baby it around anymore, have some heavier loads to pull material to jobs and finally saved up enough monies to have it looked at by proffesionals.

Trany is in F150 at a cost of around $5400. Now truck has to go to Nulls as original owner installed after market leaf springs and passenger side requires replacing.

So in the last year, the 150 has had new axels, 4.88 gears, complete brake system replacing, shocks, trany and leaf springs. MPI spent $16000 on an accident where I was rear ended. Also $4000 on an accident where front was hit while parked.
