    I'm not going to thank that.
    Mini truck & the loader are warming up & finishing up fortified coffee to dull the pain* before I do my Mr. Plow thing this morning.

    *Reading my eBook last night, dropped it on the floor and when I went to get it smacked right below my eye on the dresser- blood everywhere. Looked in the mirror this morning & I haven't had a shiner like this since my bar days. I'll have to come up with a better story how it happened though.

    While I agree. Last week I noticed the wife's gmc alittle louder than normal. Seam coming apart on muffler. Dropped off and picked up at local muffler shop in less than 2 hours for 100.00 cash. New muffler oem style welded in, not clamped. I couldn't think of doing it and saving money.

    Tell him to stuff it! Lol

    Actually proper procedure to charge a battery is to isolate and charge individual battery. All long as you have connections correct your fine. Especially if just for maintaining charge on a stored vehicle.

    jamespmack nailed it, alternator charges all the batteries all the time. Charge charge, like dead, pull the cables and do each one.

    Lately I wonder if the 55 S.L. wasn't such a bad idea after all...

    Yup, not having a lift, coupled with knowing how big a PITA repairing car exhaust can turn into, I concur..
