Not that cold in the winter??? Maybe not "down south" by you it isn't, but we had many, many days of -20 to -35 this past winter.

My ideal place to live would be considerably south of that. May have to start looking. I've lived in WI my whole life and I'm growing tired of the cold.

Yeah I love the summers up here, but the winters do suck! Unfortunatley the cows like the colder climates(their ieal outside temp is 34*) so that's one reason why I like the upper midwest.
No problem Jim, anytime.

LOL. Good idea.

Just so you know:

You bought me a 6637, CCV setup, 4" exhaust, and Isspros

I think I'll just sign the paper and let them leave the stuff on the porch. You couldn't see it from the road anyways and we're surrounded by old people so it shouldn't be an issue.

They said they'd be here between 10:30 and 2:00 so it's a little less than convenient for timing.

Ill post em up if theyre appropriate enough for FTE, Sheldon!


Pick your poison guys! I think Im stayin right where I am in VA. The occasional hurricane every 5 or so years but always a glancing blow (I thank NC for that) and bad thunderstorms here and there. It has gotten more and more humid in the last couple years though. I hate humidity!
