She runs great!!!

So far she's had a loose wire on the alternator,,, so the battery light flickered,,, and has a small oil leak somewhere. I'll find it this weekend!!

She needs new side mirrors,,, Other than that, no issues!!

Well at least you have the super duty you can live in, there are worse things than living in a truck. Imagine if it was a miata you were trying to live in.

I hope your not living in the truck...

If it's any consolation, I lived off a bike for a year and 3 months.

It was an adventure. Just widh I'd been smart enough to get at least a film camera. >_O

How ya'all doing? I too hope your not living in the truck.

No, I don't think so. Haven't watched the news in a couple of days, but I think there was a fire near Tehachapi, and I don't recall where the second was. Nothing close to us flatlanders.
