Jim i would imagine the fusible link would show signs of other electricals not working, not just no start. Of course this is total speculation.

When I finally do get to go back to work I'll still be broke. So much stuff vehicle to pay for especially the AC in the Taurus X. That car has been a driveway fixture for two months now. Have a lot of stuff to get done on the truck, mainly PM though.

The most depressing thing that has happened is my wife let a security gate marr the length of my truck's passenger side (green stripe), and it screwed up both rims and cut up the two tires. I need to buy that woman a damn tank, every car she has ever driven she has damaged somehow on the outside. Maybe I can trade that Taurus X off for an Expy with beefy steel bumper guards... I wonder if they make them for a Taurus X...

That is terrible about your truck. I have a 2000 Expy that would make a good tank!

Hopefully you will get back to work soon, has to be extremely stressful.

Made an appointment to get oil changed and tires balanced. They do the oil change for $31.95 and tire balance/rotation for $49. Not bad.

I have some Bankston South coupons but none that good. I do not care for South's service as much as I liked dealing with landon at Burleson. I need to get it done during the week here in Athens anyway, just have no time on the weekends.

Strike ain't over yet, they're just back to the negotiating table.
