Oh, I thought there was an update....what's up Joe? Stalled for the winter? Working on the wifey's project yet?

JohnC · 01-18-2011, 05:55 PM

I vote to keep it, and get another one for the 4x4! You know the oldest boy is going to be driving before long.

good point John!

Well Joe, if the weather is the same as it is here this morning, it is one of the 4 (roughly?) days that I know you really really really wish you had a 4x4.

We got about 1/2" of ice with about 3" of snow on top of it. Is just fine driving on unless the road has been "cleared". If it has been cleared, it's a solid ice wash board,

JohnC · 01-20-2011, 01:21 PM

It didn't get as bad down here as it did up there Randy. Still kind of slick, but I didn't have any issues getting to work.

I have a company truck now so I rarely drive the crew now.
I haven't even fired it up in the last 2 weeks or so

I need to pull the bed of so I can finish up my burb tank install...

I'm just going to pretend I didn't read that.

RandyP · 01-21-2011, 04:43 PM

Hell mine got fired up like 3 times this week! Moved about 10' every time, from one stall to another.

Well John, you should be happy to know that the crew got some miles this weekend.
I love driving it. The wife and I took it to home depot today.
Before you get a crazy about going to the competitor...we needed some lumber to build a purse display rack
