I have a sled trailer and it has been used a lot more for other than hauling other things than sleds.
Same about your Mountianeer JW, that sucks.
Calling for rain here on Saturday, hope they are wrong.
Have a good night everyone.

Morning boys. Sure got dark last night

Sucks to have vehicle problems JW, hopefully you got good service out of it. Shouldn't that share a lot of parts with the Explorer or Escape?

Morning entertainment = my dogs catching mice in the kitchen lol. A trap got one yesterday am, dogs just got one and missed one but they're on high alert for the 2nd. I think I'm going look for my weasel buddy and bring him inside.

Missed a decent deal on a Ranger yesterday. It sucks to be in between 2 cities where the most things are posted. By the time I can make arrangements to get there the product is usually gone. There's a decent Toyota T100 and a couple more Rangers that I'm hoping to look at this weekend. Though I prefer the Ford, the T100 is a good truck. Hard to find used, and usually really high mileage.

Must be a big rain system coming through, Colin. We're supposed to get a bunch too that I'm hoping misses us. I think 20mm tomorrow

Have a great Friday everyone!!!

Happy, Happy Friday mornin'all. Rain in the forecast here all weekend, starting tonight. Got lot's of little project's to do on the truck. Hopefully I get inspired. Sherm; I agree, Toyota's are hard to find used, with out being a highmiler. Bummer JW. Are you going to rebuild, or slap a used one in? Have a great day guy's.

Good idea, lets blame Sherm (sorry Sherm) My nephew sent me some pictures of snow just south of Hinton.

We are to get about 25mm of rain here tomorrow but, will see. The last thing we need now is rain.

Lay your blame on me boys These shoulders can handle it This year I'm not that excited for winter. Well I am and I'm not. I'm not because I'm done with sledding and that stuff, I am because its actually less work and more free time from acreage work stuff. I sure hope the weather cooperates for farmers to get the harvest done though!!

Sounds like we could have a mild winter this year because of the El Nino effect and some other effect. They also said that we set a record from January to July for heat.
