    Good looking truck.

    But I can’t help but wonder how many drivers here would run away terrified after taking one look between the drive axles. :evil4:

    That it is

    There's currently 2 pieces to this, 1 along the I95 Corridor that's caused Tornado Warnings for the past 6 hours and the other piece is over in the Nashville area

    According to Future Radar, they'll be joining up SW of Richmond and be heading up Ur way

    500 gallons is over $3K for fuel …… I fail to understand how rates down there can be so bad…….

    Awhile back I said I can't imagine living without my wife or 3 hours in the truck with her. Looks like I'll have to find a way to live without her. She will be buried tomorrow morning at 11am. Lost my wife last Wednesday and I'll be selling my equipment so I can stay home with the fur kids. My whole life has been turned upside down. This sucks.

    Snow shovel didnt get much use yet. Had a little snow, then a little sleet, then a little more snow. about 3 inches. then it froze hard as a rock. I usually keep the drive cleared off like @Dale thompson has his, but its gonna have to soften up a bit - maybe Tuesday.

    ####. Don't want to thank that. Thoughts for you, and be strong for the kids - as hard as that will be.
