    Well, I thought that check engine emission light caught up with you. Clutch adjustment, no big deal. Total emission system. Big deal. Trucks going to be paid off before you know it. As hard as you work, You’re definitely getting your money’s worth out of it.

    She made awesome biscuits IIRC she was from Arkansas and grandma from Louisiana good food! Homemade from scratch everything, fried chicken, biscuits (awesome) CFS taters jambalaya list goes on and on. Never used a recipe and don't think she owned a measuring cup. Great food except that tomato gravy, the girls tried to duplicate a lot of it...can't be done. Mom was getting close with biscuits then dad fed up and said "no matter how hard you try they won't be the same" she stopped 25 yrs ago and still refuses (dads died 2-1/2 yrs ago still no go)

    If you're going to the southern part of THE COMMUNIST STATE, or leaving it, depending on destination, US 54 west / south out of Santa Rosa to Alamogordo to US 70 to Las Cruces, then jump on 10.

    It's 58 miles longer out of Phoenix than taking 17 to 40.

    Eliminates the entire Flagstaff to Santa Rosa stretch of 40. And the road is SOOOOOOOOO much better.

    Is it worth an hour and 8 or 9 gallons of fuel?

    F' eh.

    This load came with a STUPID number. 14 months since I've delivered to Colorado.

    This is going Wolf Creek Pass neighborhood. I'm just going to DH home then unless magic load to Phoenix pops up.
