This morning, I had to run into town to the Grainger warehouse to pick up some stuff for a project we are doing. I took one of the company rigs, a 2006 Duramax 4x4.

Oh don't worry, I'd never buy one of those. In fact, if I need to run down to Grainger again I will take my own truck next time...

My bro-in-law has an 06 GMC D'Max, but with a wife & 3 young boys, he wanted the comfort factor. Decent looking truck, and I'd ride with him if we were working on something, but if it's heavy work, you know that the PSD would get called in. Just the way it is.... LOL

Oo, I feel your pain. I just got over mine a bit over a month ago, after having to deal with it since before Christmas.

We saw one bull that completely jumped the chute gate. Jumped over it. Before the cowboy was even aboard. They brought him back, put the cowboy on and out they went. The cowboy stayed on for about 1.01 seconds before being tossed off like a little rag doll.

We cheered for the bull.
