I had mine out on the picnic table yesterday cleaning them up and a flying saucer swooped down and sucked them all up into the lower portal. Good thing I had my foil beanie on or I would have been a goner....:drama: LockDoc |

What I did ,,i'm about ashamed at myself.. who'd of thinked that when I went to check my transmission by way of the fluid dip stick in my truck ,.I couldn't find the transmission stick ..looked it up in the book and it told me to not worry about fluid in there unless it was hot or something. No dip stick for the tranny,,

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I've heard of some not having dipsticks. Also some don't come with spare tires apparently. Econo sedans.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I have known of "run flat" tires for quite some time and thought they only came on upper end cars most likely. A former employee bought a new Dodge Dart some years ago and said it did not have a spare or jack from the factory. I thought foowee but he said he went to the dealer asking about it and was told it wasn't supposed to have a spare or jack. And he had a flat.. I don't know. Is that real?

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
In the never-ending search for mileage claims, the manufacturers leave out the spare tire, and then sell it to you for stupid money. In spite of the rip-off of that system, every vehicle we've bought in the last 6 years has had the "spare" tire purchased at the time of sale. Before people get too wrapped around the axle, just remember that our trucks didn't come with a spare unless we purchased it! And then it might have only been the wheel, which is good for exactly what, when your truck has a flat tire?

I ordered the optional lock also, which rusted up and I had to crawl under with vice grips and unscrew the other bolt to get at my spare tire, while on a very narrow shelf road at the top of a 1000 foot rockslide. Some things you remember. |

Wife and I got our 2nd ones today. Pfizer. LockDoc |
Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
I'll be getting Moderna. Mrs Stocker has other medical stuff going on so will have to wait for hers.
Getting signed up here has been a real crap shoot. No waiting list so it's first-come, first served whenever more doses become available. |
Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Wife and I got our 1st shot 2 weeks ago. Moderna. We feel half way better about getting vaccinated now.
Now they are saying yearly boosters may be required for the foreseeable future. |

Got new tires on the wife's car. She was not impressed with the cost. Eh, you want to die from a spinout when one of your old tires blows out? Yeah, I thought not. You rent tires, same as batteries and beer. The tread was a little less than half there, but I could see some cracking, and they are almost 6 years old.

Mike I believe that was Astra Zeneca from the UK that is discontinued due to links to blood clots.
We received Moderna. |

I felt only mild pain like a flu shot from either injection. Just goes to show how different people are. I got the Pfizer vaccination.

Wife and I had our second Pfizer shots last Tuesday and had no pain or any kind of reaction. We got our shots at or local Hy-Vee store. The needle they used was about 1 1/4" long compared to the 3" ones they show on TV. LockDoc |

Slept in, drank too much coffee, cardio.

Re: What did you do today not on your truck...
Got the first Moderna shot this morning, no issues. Well, almost none -- date was changed for the second shot and the online system would not allow the change.
Was able to cancel the original (wrong) date but could not schedule the new date. |
