    All these examples calculate 4 weeks as a month but at that rate there would be 13 months in a year. Are those 4 extra weeks reckoned as time off or what?

    Never BLEW one, just weeped a couple at times....:biggrin_2559:
    I aint getting worked up, no chance of me correcting all the incorrect information on the internerd is there?
    My mission isn't to stop folks getting screwed by the thousands of flease deals out there, but to try to make just a few realize that they are indeed getting screwed, and taking home @$1k a week is NOT making a profit! Mind, it takes an open mind to listen to experience too I guess. Too many of these....:Driver:

    And that is how you know someone is in a Flease deal, as soon as the term "per week" gets mentioned.
    I have yet to own a truck where I even knew what the payments were a week. All my financial transactions are monthly, not weekly. Mortgage, truck payment, and so on.

    I'm afraid it's like explaining IFTA to someone.....
    I've just given up on that.

    And speaking of head gaskets....
    what happened to the original poster anyways?

    I used to attempt to explain to the fools that would run bone dry, to fuel up in OKC instead of Tx, to save @5cents a gallon. Explaining that the fuel tax difference was in fact 7cents a gallon, thus the fuel is more expensive by 2 cents, was impossible
    Fuel up in Oregon? Never understood that one myself.
    Run through Ne to save a few cents in Wy? Senseless.
    Not a clue what happened to the OP neither!

    DPF and EGR.
    It is a brand new 2009 that never got sold. My wife found it out in Washington State, the same day I was going to deliver there!
    The dealer had been stuck with it for a number of years, so was VERY willing to cut an excellent deal. He paid me full retail value, plus a bit, for my old truck if that tells you anything. It was @$26k cheaper than the cheapest WS glider I was quoted on, and the glider shops wont touch a 2006 Columbia with 884k miles on it.
    Here is the interior after we got done with it today:
    Passenger seat removed due to me only taking a German Shepherd with me as a rule, and it's a perfect spot for his dog bed.

    The interior room makes our old Columbia 70" midroof XT feel like a daycab!
