    Well the truck has stopped. Ran good. Drive line has some lash in it. Like a bad motor mount. Could a carrier bearing cause that? Or bad motor mount causes the carrier bearing to go bad?


    Anyway I pick up a bad trailer one that's 13 years old drag it to the sales place. Then I go to Great Dane factory and get a new flat. So that's better than pulling some ones truck off a dry van that's been sitting for 23 days. At least I think so.

    THE TRUCK HAS STOPPED!!!!!

    STOPPED AT AN INDIGENOUS TA!!!!!

    The driver is worked. We've left the bad place(s) where it snows a lot, but now we're in other bad places.

    The driver is worked.

    The OM is, however, pleased.

    You need a bigger fork. Leave too much loose. Even at my age, I leave a clean cut and no debris...:)

    I'm sitting here studying the snow forecast in southern Colorado and eastward, glad I'm not driving there. I'll be back at it soon. I'm confident the worst of the winter weather will be done by then though, so it'll be OK. Thank you, Super El Niño!

    I didn't cut it. It was cut by a lady at mom's party. I did, however, eat it. It was yummy.
