Hey MN, another great day working outside up on the shore. Putting a metal roof on tomorrow and hopefully we will have all the metal work with the eves and overhangs done by the weekend so any weather won't be a problem.

I do indeed have a decision to make, I have talked with my parents and gf about this and have decided to sell it since it will only help me financially and will open up my life more for the future. Good thing im selling it to a buddy who lives a mile away haha. It's a win-win for the two of us, since he runs his own plowing business where it owns an actual city plow from cloquet.

I'll be buying a DT360 core and doing a slow build on that until I buy a truck to support it. It really is quite interesting watching different diesels working in super dutys.

Well Terry at least you can check out your old truck whenever you want at your buddy's place. Save up for the truck you want and go for it! I would love to see that DT360 swap!

Contest involved, tractor power, sprayer calibration, construction, electrical wiring, surveying, tool identification, and a test/problem solving relating those areas. It was regional qualifying for state FFA.
