    That's just like Oliver when I'm drinking a beer. Looks at his bowl and starts barking where's mine Lol. Or lately he wants you to sit and watch him eat. Figures he sees us eat together. Smarter than people give them credit for

    @Czar_Zero finished product. Feels 1000% better than it did. Ended up adding a foot to the harness.

    That looks great, and since it works, I'm sold.

    I still remember when I got my truck, the three hour drive home was only bearable because of the wonders of cruise control.

    In fact, just driving the thing a few miles with the current pedal set up pisses me off...

    Sup man.

    Just wanted to let you know I'm a Marine Navy Seal Sniper who served seventeen tours of battle duty in Prussia during the Franco Prussian war. Prior to that I was a Aquamarine Beret in direct service to King Charles VII of Sweden. Was standing right next to him when he caught that piece of grape shot through the head.

    If you buy me another beer I'll tell you about my time in the Legions of Julius Caesar.

    Oh yeah, it was 10 or so from Houston back home. Definitely would've had to stop often if it weren't for cruise.

    Aside from being more comfortable in general there's alot more fine control.

    If you can't find a pedal for sub 150 bucks I've got a guy that can get em for 100 bucks and I'll drop it at ups for ya.

    If you meet one of those special forces guys tonight, be sure to give us the play by play. It should make for a really good read.

    Ohhhh believe me.....I know all too well. I was raised by my great grandmother for the most part. We shopped at garage sales pretty much exclusively. it definitely taught me the value of money. The she would goto the dime store in town (Ben Franklin) and buy those iron on patches.....the ones that never match anything.....ever....not even close.

    You know what cracks me up is the people who buy their kid's phones. Who in the heck is your 5 year old calling? We have friends that their kids all have phones. I don't get it. When my kids get a job, they can buy themselves a phone.
