    I bet it could run off and leave this gutless wonder I’m in. This truck is a joke, someone cracked the steering wheel probably beating on it out of frustration. They took a bigger bell housing and mounted a TH350 to the X15. Vroom, clunk. Vroom, clunk.

    There might be a short delay whilst @wore out 's better half negotiates the move rights. @KillingTime is working on the score.

    While I applaud you, and I was similar, not everyone is. No high school is gonna help a kid that wants to do it. I lucked out. I grew up around it and never wanted to drive as a young adult. As a little kid it was all I could think of. But I was smarter and not gonna go down that line as a teen, young man. Stupid under paid job. I wrenched on them, and later drove wrecker and caught the bug. Now I moonlighted on the side for dad, but never worked for him. Looking back, kinda wish I did. Wrenching for someone else is no different than driving for someone else. Your gonna make someone wealthy.

    We had smoked chicken, beef kabobs with onion, green, red peppers and cherry tomatoes. I forgot to take a picture. Now for @stwik I borrowed @sawmill breakfast picture and recreated it.

    Well theres a little Exxon way out in the woods that gave shelter to a shifty ol grain hauler back bout 3 years ago. Not built or designed for trucks but you can get one in. So a SRT team is there when I pull in to wait on my other truck to dump at the feed mill around the corner. When I walk in the lot was clean, when I come out they had piled trash up, i was really nasty I'm sure when I told em to pick it up. That's when the driver gets out and says I need to be respectful when I talk to him. I tell him he needs to be respectable if he wishes to get respect. An argument ensues which causes me to drop my pizza and chase him into his truck. He then rolls his window down to cuss me once more while pulling out and making a u turn which put the open window to my side. That's when I looked down and seen them 2 vidalia onions by themselves still in a produce bag. I missed with that first one but that 2nd gave him a shiner I have no doubt.


    One thing I remember from 3 years ago when the manager let me catch a much needed nap was please promise you wont leave any trash in the lot. When I seen his it blew all over me. He had no idea he was wrong, and wasn't gonna be convinced. Called the local po po on a crazy ### onion throwin grain hauler lunatic. Cop laughed till he cried when I told my side. Lady in the Exxon gave me another pizza. Since the other guy never checked up wasn't no big thing

    True. I'd love to open my own shop or run my own mobile repair truck. I just think I'm better off working for the dealer right now. Can't beat having a good benefit plan. Plus once 7 o'clock roles around, jump in my pickup and go home. No worries about anything.
