Yep I'm home again midweek... last couple of weeks have been pretty crappy.
Did you really get a new windshield for $46??? Seems like a typo!
Really glad to hear you're still in it to win it. -
Yes Sir.... $46.00 That's what I paid for the Glass.... From Grand Traverse Diesel Service.... Traverse City, MI ... Freightliner Split Window... Heck The seal was $100.00 I got both The seal and Glass for less than a Bill....I had a friend that works at a glass shop install the seal and glass in his driveway for $60.00.... Not to bad and cheaper than my ded on insurance claim to boot.. -
Oh and My friend just sold his 2006 Pete He bought it for $25,000 ran it for a month could not handle it , so he sold it for $25,000 What a steal that guy from NY got...

I Put a set of steers on in LA on the way back from TX.... Oh and replaced another fuel line ....Got to love the Deductions... -
We are still in it............. Made it 6 months . Man how time flies when your on the road and busy. I'm up for my Plate Renewal by the end of this month, and The IRS never mailed me my 2290 reminder renewal so I get a late fee there... That's my own fault, I new it was coming due.
I just put a new ECM on the truck ....$1600.00+ and a new water pump, a new battery and a alternator. Oh and don't forget the 6 In straight stacks... and a drive line slip yoke and yoke on the diff.....new joints... I swapped out the fontaine fifth with a brand new 35 series Holland, I got a deal on that $200.00 it was a take off at a local truck shop that builds dump trucks.. What a find.... next the Kingpins will be replaced..... Nobody can say I don't maintain my truck...
