Yep, smae here, but the Chevron where I was filling up in Brownsboro all the sudden started going over about 1.2 gallons on a 20 gallon fillup. Now, the Texaco in Burleson has done it for the first time. Other stations are still spot on.

My amp will be here today and the door and pillar speakers will be here tomorrow. I have to get the plywood and carpet to build the amp rack as well as the speaker wire for the new speakers. I know what I'm going to be doing this weekend......

Carpet's going to come from the local stereo shop or I may even do spray on bed-liner because I have a can or two left over from the JD project. The plywood may come from the HD just because I can buy a 2x2 or 2x4 sheet for under $12 and not have any waste. I have to check out dad's house and my garage to see what scraps we have laying around our shops but I think I used my last piece of 3/4 on my work bench. And yes I know I own a lumber yard.........

You two are not to far off, I am debating on doing that next winter or buying an older loader along with a 10ft or 12ft snow pusher for next winter and join two of my friends that are doing that this winter. I may come to my senses before next September but you never know........

There could be worse things. Can't think of one right off, but I know there must be!


Setting up the TOTY contest was a royal pain. Glad that comes just once a year.

Voted....it showed up this time and didn't disappear....

It would make it easier to dq trucks if the members aren't active/banned or the truck has been sold....
