Aircoolerkirk just left with my Roush wheels. Had he not come so far, I might have backed out of the sale. While waiting for him, I proped a couple beside the 2011 for the first time. Looked pretty doggone good. Still my favorite wheel on a Ford. BTW, Kirk is a very nice guy.

seems that my little sisters 05 mercedes with 40,000 miles is in dire need of mechanical repair again. She needs to borrow the 12 year old clapped out 243,000 mile f150 for the second time in 5 weeks.

The tb gasket is an oring .....unplug the connectors and remove bolts....of course you've got to take off the other bs before it also.....

Ok thanks. Judging by how chilly it is in the house right now because the heater was off I think it's cold out. Darn.
