    I've been driving a 378 Pete with a C15 CAT. A 2006, so only emissions is the EGR. My miles out I'm at 80,000. Back I'm empty. Averaging about 5.6 mpg for the last week. Though a 562 mile round trip to Tulsa I barely hit 5.0 mpg. Makes me glad I'm not paying for the fuel. And I still have been home every night.

    Southern tire mart in west Memphis ar, that’s what the price was all in, although there was only one truck ahead of me, and they were all put on in an hour.
    I’ve since drove home, washed out trailer, went and picked up the 185$ Driver side door regulator for window on KW, looked at a 13 Nissan Pathfinder 4x4, 158k miles, dude wants $7800 firm on, so I’m on the fence and don’t know, I was thinking $5000.. tops, but prices are covidtized now.

    Drink a quart of water, wait 1/2 hour, and then run up and down the steps.

    If that doesn't work, ask your Doc if they've got the magic hot tub that uses sound to break up the stone inside yer body til it will pass.

    Good luck

    My vote is also for "I'm tired. Good night all."

    So I dont want to get dinged for political posts, and I dont want to get into a political discussion. So I will try to keep this as non political as I can, because I believe most of you that frequent this thread share my beliefs about covid, and will find this to be refreshing.

    IF you are interested and havent already seen it, get on YouTube and search the name of a senator from Kentucky. This particular senator has a background in the medical field and has medical privileges at 2 hospitals in Bowling Green, KY.


    So... when you search for this particular senators name on YouTube there will be one clip that is blowing up all over the internet... You wont miss it I promise... Watch that clip (any of the like 1000 reposts of it.) Then if you like that watch some of the other clips that also are of that senator. I think most of you will like what you find.

    It definetally helped to ease a sorrow I've begun to feel for our country.

    Edit: Please dont comment on the content I've told you how to find. I dont want thus thread to digress down that rabbit hole. If the mods feel ive overstepped the line, this post can be removed with no hard feelings on my part. @MACK E-6
