Quick update: Tranny is shot, so new rebuilt one going in this week. Hopefully this will be the last surprise and then he can come home to Oklahoma.

I want to thank everyone who has voted for Cecil in the April Truck of the Month contest. Currently we are leading with 44% of the votes with 2 day left.
