Staying at home is always a good idea on black Friday. There are just as many deals online if ya feel a need to spend money plus you don't have to worry about someone denting your truck in a parking lot or getting trampled in the store.

This weekend I bring back my toolbox et. al from my brother's house.

That will take up most of the day, breaking down the toolbox drawers included.

Lugging the upper & lower sections into my van, and putting all the drawers back in.

Then similar to get the toolbox back out of the van and into my house.

Evening, everybody.

I forgot to tell you guys one of my customers last week was checking out my ride. I guess he saw my PSD on the way in and then saw my RDP shirt and put 2 and 2 together and started talking to me about it.

Apparently he thought that only OBS trucks had 7.3s in them. I was talking to him about it and he mentioned turbo problems I said "Well on the 6.0s yes but not on a 7.3 I wouldn't own a 6.0" and he thought I was BSing him that 7.3s went into trucks til 03.

So he left me his email address and told me if I knew of anyone selling an F250 4x4 7.3 to send him an email. I in turn gave him an FTE spotters card.

We'll see if he shows up on the forums or not.

Hi Ken

In stopped at Best Buy today, the plaza parking lot was full and of course that's no indication that people are buying.

Am I the only one receiving the email notifications anywhere from 30 minutes to hours upon hours late? Seems like it started after the website attack last week.
