Not good, very scary. I haven't slipped once, but Randy drives an Impala for work and says he's been sliding around all over the place.

It was bad enough that I had to put it into 4wd to get up the hills. I just wish it would either get colder and snow, or warm up and just rain. This hanging out around the freezing temp sucks!!

Afternoon, everyone. Still pretty nasty out there.
You should hear the limbs dropping on the shed roof... sounds like an artillery barrage out there.

Just listening to the sound of ice falling on the roof... Sis blew the front driveshaft out of the Cummins truck, and my 6.9 is still waiting for me to reset the timing, the gas truck has the front worn out enough (from her just running it and not fixing it as I hounded her to do for over a year) and no other trucks available to go get it from over in Illinois. I don't have a day off for the next week, so now we have to figure out how to get it home. It sounds to have blown a u joint (which were new) and dropped the driveshaft on the pavement, which they weren't able to find... It of course is a custom driveshaft, so just getting one from a yard won't happen. They best find it, as that output yoke is a little hard to come by.... Good ol' NV4500HD...
