I like this idea, I've never thought of that before.

Re: My Facetruck thread.

Good idea. I thought I posted about trying that. It's just a hard location and position to be in relation. What I had for a bushing needed to be almost as long as the drill bit to be sure it remained in the drilling location. I just want to work on it on an engine stand drilling down with full vision. Then I'll reseal the bottom end and transmission

Re: My Facetruck thread.

I feel like I sold an old friend last week. We bought this Duramax new and it is my favorite truck of all time but you can't keep 'em all.

I'd like to find a regular cab like that. You're going to miss that one

I got $16,000 out of it.


We had the truck detailed and put it in a warehouse, thinking we might have to put it back in service. A friend of mine walked in here one day looking for a clean truck for weekend and out of town use. He couldn't pay me fast enough. He had looked around and this was the configuration he was looking for. It has a brand new Allison transmission.

Re: My Facetruck thread.

Well, we did it. Our realtor neighbor called last Tuesday and asked if we would sell our house. She showed it Wednesday night and had us an offer by nine PM.

Lucky for us we have an apartment to move into. This should be fun.

Re: My Facetruck thread.

This will be fun to hear about. Jumping into an apartment while building a place, once you get all that worked out. Sounds like you'll be gettin' busy.

Re: My Facetruck thread.

Congrats Larry. I think.

My wife has this wild hare she wants to sell our house while everything is selling like crazy. The problem is replacing it or even more difficult. Finding an acreage in our range.

What do you have in mind now Larry? Shop/house?

Re: My Facetruck thread.

I bet HE wants a little cabin and a big shop or a shopdominium. But SHE wants...
... what SHE's gonna get! Ah, all that comfort will be easy to get used to. I know she's a good designer that you can go along with. I hope you all enjoy the experience. It's something special for sure.

This thread was started as tongue in cheek fun being poked at FB with people posting their every move. I had no idea it would take on a life of it's own.


That said, everybody's dog must be healthy, nobody has offered up a cheap brain surgeon, I have eaten a lot of biscuits and gravy and I still eat a prune every day.

Re: My Facetruck thread.

I remember at first I treated it like my impression of Facebook. I reported what I ate that day.

So Larry (the other one), I guess the new truck got old and she got... more experienced

She was so naive and believed everything I said. Boy, did she ever wise up.

She kept me out of jail though.
