Your such a sweet talker At least I will turn 30 a whole 6 days before he turns 20. haha.

They were really quick on the install! Guess it doesn't take much to work on a Saturn though. The installer saw my truck as we pulled up and came out to look at it, we spent a good 10 mins talking about it and the few mods I had done to it! Then he was telling me I needed an amp for my speakers and new Viper remote start to complete my truck, always the salesman. lol.

Cmon down Jim, we'll get you enrolled in a speech class down here so folks dont look at you like you've grown two heads when you talk.

Shoot, just one afternoon of sitting around the feed and seed store, and we'll have you southernized.....

Brandon's right.

I'm not so sure, Brandon.... I've talked to Jim on the phone, as have you and many others... I think it might take a good 3 or 4 days just to make sure he doesn't fall off the "drawl wagon" after goes back home the first day!

Hey Jim how far are you willing to move? Today as I was looking for a job for myself in the paper I saw that one of the local ethanol plants is looking for a plant electrician.

Just thought I'd throw that out there.

Yea, but Wisconsin is freakin cold.

Jim wants to move south to get away from the cold. What he doesn't know is that I'm going to stow away in his PSD and ditch this cold too.

Now I'm torn Texas or Alabama.....Once I move I will only be coming north for vacations to see family. I suppose that i will have to learn the southern drawl, maybe with a mix of the supposed accent that I allegedly have.

Jacob that sounds like the type of job that I would enjoy, but it's to cold in Wisconsin.

Pete I told you your more than welcome to come visit anytime!! When the time comes and you want to relocate you have a place to stay until you get on your feet.

For some reason the multi quote isn't working for me tonight!

I have a 800w inverter in my truck and that thing has come in handy a many times.
When I bought my 305/70/16 Nittos, I got them for 154 a piece mounted and balanced.....Remember it like it was yesterday. Wait a minute it was only the year before last and I bought these Coopers last May. HA HA! Now I know why they were so cheap! DOH!
