It really wouldn't be that fun if I had deadlines, and the pressure of pleasing customers. I do it for me, and that is it. If I knew that people wouldn't bitch when the results aren't what they expected, then maybe. I have done some friend's cars in the past, but not lately.

Morning guys, watch out for the truck accident on 91S at exit 8. And for you commercial guys steer clear of DOT for the next 72 hrs, it's nation wide if you didn't know not just CT.

Anybody want to buy my Lincoln? The dealer only wants to give me $21,000.00 for it. He says nobody wants a Lincoln w/off road tires on it. I mean am I the crazy one? They told me it works out to be $22,500.00 with the less taxes, to try and make me feel better.

Don't you still have the stockers at the shop somewhere. Or at least something that more closely resembles them? Are they gonna give you more money with less aggressive tires?

Did they find you a new truck?

When I bought the awnings, I never imagined them not working on this truck, and they haven't to their fullest extent....... until now. Being made for a van, the legs were too short to reach the ground, and if you rolled it out too far, you risked the thing breaking off the truck. So I had to add a stage to the retractable aluminum legs. I had a little trouble finding 5/8 OD 1/16 wall aluminum square tubing, but I finally did, and finished the first side today.
