My wallet is slim, I'm a Auto worker. So we know how all of that goes.
I like the auto store's I have dealt with and one of them is Advance Auto.
I would like to support the big boys but I can no longer do that.
I am a Ford man, but I can't keep up no more. I will not drive a Hunday..(is that how you spell it?)
I'm in Ross county South of Columbus Ohio.
It's funny, My wife heard the clicking sound and asked me, "what is that sound".

We don't make, but aftermarket makes rebuilt parts from burned compressor blades and vanes. You wouldn't want to fly with any of them.
Mostly overseas aircraft. Just trying to help the guy out on the cheap end, not everybody has a grand to drop on a guess. Just one poor boy helping out another. no more tit for tat.

Don't worry about it Spoogie.
we'll get her fixed... Just need the wife's credit card. and if I complain enough she will give it to me, but also she want's me to get a bigger truck.
I would like that but this baby is paid for...
As far as the Air craft industry I have heard all of the quality standards that are at hand. I would'nt want to be in your shoes.. Keep up the good work..

Hmmm, Ross County. Chillicothe or thereabouts?
I was going to offer to help you do the job in my shop (free or nearly so). The drive would probably eat up the savings though, it's about 160 miles.
The offer is there if you think it would be beneficial to you.

Thanks Lsrx101,
I've had real good luck with this truck. Not one problem until now.
I will get her taken care of. Thanks again, I just let it set too much.
My wife is always like, Get rid of it! you don't drive it! I use it for pulling the camper and that is all with the gas prices. But times are changing back to the old days when you bought a truck it was used for work not for running up and down the road getting groceries with it. So it still fit's in my mind scheme.
Out of Loriane, Is the Ford Assembly plant still running?

Yep. You're using your truck like a truck was meant to be used. A serious utility vehicle for when you need one, not just a daily driver. (Some AC when the time comes is really nice, though). Sitting for reasonably long periods won't cause the AC to "go bad". 6 mos to a year, should be no problem.
I don't want to cause marital problems, but can you pull your camper with "her" car??
Good Luck!

Sadly, the Ford Lorain Assembly plant is closed. They ceased production of the T-Bird in 1997 and moved Econoline Body production to Avon Lake, Ohio a few years ago.. Ford doesn't even own the property anymore.
Last winter, I stored my daughters Chevy El Camino at a facility set up in one of the old production line buildings. Ironic, huh?

The entire outside "lot" area is currently filled with Honda vehicles awaiting shipment via OTR truck.
Lorain Assembly had the finest rail facility of any Ford plant outside of the Detroit area. The tracks and yards are currently rusty and overgrown.
They're hauling Hondas out of there, via truck, by the thousands each day.
Kind of a double slap in the face, maybe? The whole situation is just disgusting.
