Andy we've had both the truck and plow for a quite a while actually. Just took us a while to get 2 and 2 to make 4.

I really do like that truck except for a few things.
1: It's an XL
2: The receiver for the seat belt buckle must've been installed wrong cause it always sits sideways so instead of having the buckle lay flat against your hip the narrow end digs in. Sucks majorly since I'm religious about wearing my seatbelt.
3: It's got a 6.0 in it.
4: It doesn't have the little cubby hole near my right knee like my truck does. I love my cubby hole.
5: Seats aren't anywhere near as comfortable as mine.
6: It's an XL so no power mirrors. I love my power mirrors too.

Most of that could be fixed had we gotten an XLT and if I drove that truck more I'd look into the seatbelt.

i am down one tooth!!! doc yanked my top right wisdom toof out. doesnt feel great, but its much better than when the tooth was in so thats fine by me! the worst part is the Novocaine needle slowly pushing through my gums 8 times. i hate that feeling!

so a few days ago my brother had his wisdom teeth pulled, my sister had hers out yesterday, and now i lost one today. one sister left, we will see what happens tomorrow?

more exciting news......we came into work yesterday to a broken heater, then this morning the other heater had malfunctioned and pumped unburnt fuel and smoke into the shop all night. fortunately im smarter than my boss, so i rewired all the natural gas heaters in the shop and turned them on (he cut them all to make sure they wouldnt ever go on to save money). so we were only chilly for an hour. then my boss started yelling, i may have yelled back some.....i might have told him there is no crying in the truck shop. i dont think he said anything else to me for the rest of the day wich is great for me

well im off to bed now, i gotta work for some ***** in the morning who wants a tranny pulled.
