    Well shoot, sounds like I missed out!? Never had a bison steak, let alone a t-bone bison..

    Last time I was though Grand Forks, I took a 10 over at Simonson's. Had a nice time in the Long Haul saloon. :thumbup:

    I'm think'n there was a fly'n Hook across the road. That the old Big Chief.?

    Ahh ha, gotcha. Think I splashed a few gals of #2 on there before, but didn't eat..

    So is 5°f & a 30mph wind still Webasto comfort, or you got to idle when temps that low.? :eek:

    Yeah i broke down near the familys house in phoenix when i went out for some dairy queen lol. turned out to be this little rubber tube on the fuel pump assembly. Was sucking in air and shutting the engine down....i guess its pretty common problem on these generation of gm's.. @Flint1 helped me diagnose it. Lot of work to replace a little tube like that since the whole pump assembly is inside the fuel tank.. put a new pump on while was in there. Running good as new. Helps that we have a lift at the house here. Makes working on #### so much better... Just need one for the semi now, so i dont gots to crawl around in the dirt anymore :cool:. A guy can dream eh?

    Awesome, good deal it wasn't something major..

    Dude, that is frickin sweet having a lift right there!! :thumbup:
    Just need a tall canopy to keep that blaze'n AZ sun off ya & you'll be style'n.!

    Right there with ya wishing I had something for the semi though. Every time I fumble a washer, bolt, or something it's a dang Easter egg hunt trying to find it in the grass where I'm parked at home.. lol

    Not to mention I can't sit fully upright working around the transmission area. Think'n at the least I need to pour a pad, & build a set of ramps to get the front end up for 8"-10" more clearance under there..
