i didn't know that, derik. i drove mine around in the parking lot(as an automatic), but didn't drive the donor truck, which has a 4 spd. i had to work for days to degrease the tranny enuff to see it was a T18. the only 4 speed i have had prior was a NP435. i am looking forward to getting to drive her.

Howdy great state of Misery. Definitely cool on this end. Just now getting past 35° at 9 A.M. Ms. Michelle, nothing personal here, but you can keep all that white stuff out there with you. I'm too old for that. Me & Arthur don't care for that stuff ( of course, he's kinda persnickety anyway ). To be honest, I don't really care for Arthur either, but can't seem to get rid of him. He'll go away for a while, but as soon as the weather changes, he's back.

I forgot the best last night! We got the daughter a dalmation for xmas last night.
We are on our way home, and "tinker" start's trying to get in my lap. I resisted him at first because i was driving, but i let him in my lap and he's in love with me. I'm petting him, he's kissing me, looking out the window, just all around being great. After about 20 minutes the wife says "crack your window for him" and he starts getting stirred up, so I told her "ya gotta take him, he's starting to jump on my arms making me jerk the wheel." He's in her lap for all of 20 seconds before i hear scream's coming from the wife "HE'S PEEING ON ME, PULL OVER!!"
At this point i'm almost crying. He stopped and I told her "he's done now, no need to pull over" so i didnt come to a complete stop. 3 second's later... "NO HE'S NOT, HE'S PEEING AGAIN, PULL THE **** OVER!!!" Now i'm crying trying to get pulled over, let him out and he's like 'why'd we stop, stu--p--id?'
She flips the light on and she was hosed down! Funny as hell.
