Nothing better than a ice cold Dew first thing in the morning or Coke with a Snickers for a snack.

Thank's, I have no doubt it will. I know I have 100+ rounds of .308 and 5.56 that I need to get reloaded before summer.

Just an alignment rack hoist that all....

After the wheels got road forced balanced....took her out to a closed strip and got her up to 120 mph with no vibrations....

Also it was the brake pedal position switch replacement that fixed the cruise control....nice that it was a cheap fix....

I'd imagine your about tired of that back and forth.

Shoot, I don't like driving my 11 miles to work. hahaha

Going to the Chicago Auto Show tomorrow. Hoping the Atlas concept is there, and also going to see what I can break on the new Tundra. Almost broke the hood on a BMW and did break a few panels at the Hyundai booth last year.

Keep us informed. Stay safe. Old dude coworker of mine told us of when he was a kid in 1958 when they got snowed in in Pennsylvania for two weeks. They had no power and couldn't get out hardly. Stayed warm with oil lamps and boiled snow for water. Eventually they shoveled to the street only to have the driveway fill when the plow finally came through.

Yeah the blizzard of 1978 is why we moved to Texas instead of up north. Dad had two job offers and got stranded in the blizzard on one business trip so said screw it, I'm taking the other job and we're moving to DFW Texas.
