    My first truck was a 95 T600, 470 Detroit, tall rubber. Wouldn't quite ring the bell, but would get close enough to Benjamin it'd get light and quiet. In a 387 now, not a hood but I got an idea or ten to make it mean. Hell, I got it paid for, so time to doll it up(as much as it can be).

    Sitting at my delivery point.
    Command lied to me about delivery time, so I'm sitting here an hour early.

    Went to Alvin to get an empty tote with residuals in it. Couldn't find out size or weight until I got there. Was a standard size SS tote.
    Was Red and Poison plackerd. Took it to CBSL in La Porte.
    Then to Coastal Packaging for two pallets 1000# which went 5 or 6 miles to Allchem.
    Then to Conroe for a 264# crate going to SDV.
    Could have been a worse day.
    Saw an F150 today with $495 down on the side of it.
    My truck needs at the very least an oil change and front brake pads. Two different senders show too low oil pressure at idle. It rarely ever runs below 200 degrees. I think I done used all the good out of it.

    Have a 10AM pick up in Channelview going to to the outskirts of Conroe. I drum Haz.

    Just a little over 107 with a "real feel" of 110! Takes some real cajones to make statements like that on a radio!

    Corning tomorrow...."real feel" of 113......guess who won't be there after the sun comes up!

    On my way out of the triple digit Sacramento Basin heat and up to Tacoma predicted to be only 90 the next few days. On the positive side....nights will down in the hiugh 50's to low 60's......ahhhhhhhhhhh

    I always preferred to think they were just "misinformed," (in other words, FULL OF CRAP,) rather than lying to me.:biggrin_2552:

    I was in Vegas today. Only saw around 107. 'bout the same as here at home.
