my day sucked
Well my day started at 8:30am met my dad picked up the trailer and started our 3 1/2 hour drive to Kansas to meet a guy to pick up a box for my truck. Well we arrived at 12:50. We were supose to meet at 1pm. We waited till 1:15 and I called my house to see if there was any messeges and guess what? There was and it was from his wife she called at 11:59 saying that his truck broke down and couldnt make it. Talk about being pissed. So we drove back home. My wife called and told me he sent me a email at 7:42am saying he was on his way. So why did it take him 4 hours to drive 3? I really dont think he even left his house and why didnt he call me on my cell? Im so glade i didnt send him any money. Oh and did i say i bought it off ebay? yep burned by ebay again. I tried to call him when I got home and his line was busy so I sent him a email saying if he wanted to sell the box he could deliver it to omaha. I doubt he will since he cant find a truck to even drive 3 hours let alone 7. lol What a waste of my day and of my fathers and we both took the day off to do this.

been there...
I once drove to missouri for a front clip for a project I was building and when I got there the guy "says" that someone stole it, but it was there yesterday, it sounded to me like someone knew he lost money on the sleez-bay sale and sold it out right quick
 I would send him a bill for lost wages and gas!!

Still looking for a short box with dual gas door. Rust free. Let me know if anyone has one or knows of one.

i know how you feel ive been having one of those weeks.it started monday night when i got pulled over for driving on a suspended plate-i didnt know it was suspended and had been since november-stupid arizona mvd-plate gets taken by the cops naturally-had to fight with the dmv for 2 1/2 days to prove it was insured and of course they didnt believe me since my insurance agent is a flake so now i have an SR 22 for 2 yrs-ive missed 2 days of pay due to not being able to drive my truck to work and no one in my family or friends would give me a ride to work-i live to far from my job to take the bus or a cab-then today im all ready to go back to work and make up some of this lost money when a family emergency occurs so im out another day-man i just hope i dont lose my job over this-thats all i need.
