If you can stay an extra day that would be great! I am planning on leaving here around 8pm on the 26th so if the weather works in my favor I should be in Denver around 10am on the 27th. I won't be looking so hot after driving all night when we meet but you'll get your tire!
I'm sure you'll look plenty hot.

I'm sorry your headaches are still a problem. How freaking frustrating.

How can you look mad if you're smiling?

Nah she was just complaining about having to go shopping a while ago and mentioned you both got Nikes and I've got a steel trap memory for useless crap like that. But the important stuff gets away from me all the time.

And if these other folks won't buy parts from you I'll buy a new oil pressure sensor from ya so long as you get me a part number. I can't find it on your darn site.

That'd be horrible...I mean just awful...to leave on vacation and come back to a truck that's had all types of cool things done to it....just awful.

Are you kidding? YES YES YES OH YES! Please do.

I'm going to disable her though...you never know what I might do. Will it be a fuse? Starter relay perhaps? Hmm...could be part of the fun.

There are a number of folks in here who know all the potential approaches, and with several of them together, that would be the kind of challenge that would keep them workign at it until they found it and fixed it just to say they DID!

Hmm lets see..

Bils on all 4 corners
Powerslot cryoed rotors and hawk pads on the front
Find that damn oil leak!
Convert over to a late turbo and bigger pipes, including the bellowed International up pipes..and install the shiny new red boots I have sitting on my ATV in the garage
Balljoint on the passenger's side front
U joints all the way around, possible carrier bearing in the rear
6.0 front end with Harley Davidson edition headlights
Remove and re-seal billet thermostat housing so it stops oozing coolant
Install the compass/digital rearview mirror I've had sitting int he garage for 6 months
Install the FRX I have sitting in my dining room table
Change the oil and send out the oil analysis kit
Install new swaybar and end link bushings
John Woods valvebody
Sandblast my front and rear bumpers and paint them black

Pretty sure that's all, I could've forgotten something. All that should only take you guys,.what, two hours?

The 500 is all yours if you can find ammo for it. That's the biggest trouble we've been having. Had to go to a gun show to find the brass and bullets.

They do seem to enjoy a challenge, don't they?
