Weighed one of the 20s while i had them off the truck, was shocked. I knew they were heavy but didnt know they were that heavy


We got about 2 or 3" of sleet with ice under it, and its been snow flurries all day....

It was 18* this morning on my way to work, and its been dropping, not sure exactly how cold it is outside now. Its about 55* in the shop.

And of course im still in shorts :o
Good grief! Bad as John, hanging out in the restroom!

30 minute drive to work ended up taking an hour and a half this morning. Very icy, about an inch on top of the road. On the way home it was melting at 24 degrees and sunny. In the morning it's going to be an ice rink, so I'm going to be late for work again on purpose like today.

Every school in the state seems like it was closed today and the way the news was saying the roads were terrible so I left for work 45 mins early. Ended up being at work 45 mins early too Roads weren't bad at all around here.

Just got home from a funeral, got sprayed with diesel when I fueled the truck up. I am now sitting in my EZ chair drinking a Corona Extra.

Cel came on... P0430... drivers side cat below threshold. Ford said I may have to replace my cat when I got it fixed back in December because the bad coil most likely dumped fuel into the system. Sure enough, I checked for codes again today, and boom, there it was. Gonna order a new 94106 this weekend it looks like... *sigh*
