Not sure if there is any interest in a December GTG, just thought I would throw the question out.

3) Crown Royal
4) SBC CON-OFE

~Rob

3) Onboard Air system

4) a set of Lazarsmith Traction bars

5) Hellwig rear sway bar

6) A Floor it Modified CP3 or II Twin CP3 kit

9) A nice Christmas card and some Christmas cookies[roll]

Wondered where everyone went....thanks Fade!
Good one Mike!
My Christmas list has only one item. I want "LACK OF INTEREST".................................................. .in nitrous! :D

So where & when?

RJ

Mike you'd better copy write that fast, it's going on a couple of sites right now.

why no nos rowland?

... cause you'll Huff and Puff 'til you blow your turbo! :o

why no nos rowland?
As stated before... a little is probably not enough, for me anyway, and a lot is too close to the survival edge!
I know no one that has tried it that didn't go up in nozzle size!
Really just scares me a bit!
My reluctance falls into the "Need my CTD in one piece, come Monday morning" category. :)

RJ

Rowland probably have to buy a second vehicle at the same time you buy the NOS.

I'll sell you my truck as a play thing RJ, then I can buy my megacab :)

~Rob

Mmmm...
Megacab....

Lets see.... I wanna a grail! 98 12V quad cab! auto at that! something to bomb and beat the crap out of... yep thats all... I'm taking donations! :D

I need some coveralls for were I'm working.....20*f when I got out on the job this morning

I need some coveralls for were I'm working.....20*f when I got out on the job this morning



And where are you now?


..

Medford Oklahoma



18 degrees right now

I'd like to try & meet up w/ ya'll for the meet if that would be OK.


You're more than welcome to join us. I'm out of town a lot right now and really don't know when we'll meet again. Just keep an eye out here for....whatever.............[laugh]

I don't know if anybody is serious and wants to have a GTG this month or not. If you do, my place is open and available. If not, that is cool too. I am just saying it is available if we collectively want to do it.

Maybe we could meet at Texas Roadhouse (or pick another place) for lunch on a Saturday and then come back to my house for some light "wrenching" before dark if anybody has any projects to do. They mowed the field behind my house if we need some extra parking room.


..

Works for me! 8th is better than 15th, IMO....but I can make either!

RJ

I could probably make it by for awhile on Saturday or Sunday.

I might could make the lunch depending on whats going on that saturday if it was a sunday i could make it for sure.

8th works for me.
The 15th is my son's 18 birthday and the anniversary of my bike wreck, so it's strictly family time that weekend.

..Maybe we could meet at Texas Roadhouse (or pick another place) for lunch on a Saturday and then come back to my house for some light "wrenching" before dark.
Roadhouse sounds good to me.
Robert, we talking Sat & Sun, like last time, or are you only available for Sat?
Tyler called last night, looking for a part, and was interested in GTG, if overnight works for you?

RJ

I can probably make a lunch on the 8th.

What part was Tyler looking for, how much more hp decrease does he want :D

~Rob

Wanted the HBS 2" leveling Kit.... For a friend. I asked if he had dynoed lately and the phone got very quiet for a while. [laugh]

Guess we're on for the 8th?? Hear back on the new clutch, Hotdram?

RJ

yea i need a day time and place

Sounds like Saturday, Dec 8th at the Roadhouse located on the east side of US 75 at the El Dorado Pkwy exit in McKinney.

http://roadhouse.know-where.com/roadhouse/cgi/site?site=00183

Texas Roadhouse in McKinney, Jct of HWY 75 and ?? (two exits north of Hwy 380).
12 noon, I'm guessing.
Someone will fill in the blanks for me, I'm sure.

Ah, Our President has spoken. :)

RJ

I'm celebrating my B-day next weekend, so I might bring my Lady to the Roadhouse.

I tell ya what..my wife aint comin..what time?

I tell ya what..my wife aint comin.
Right on Bro!
What kind of Fraternity is this anyway! [laugh]
RJ

haha my wife would be so **** bored anyways...all she would hear is turbo,smoke,injector,dodge,air filter,tires,ford sucks,and beer...haha

Hopefully no one would hear "Brian make fire"

I dont get that but im sure i will...haha...hopefully i will have my bumper on my truck before this weekend..

I think bigblue and myself are gonna carpool up

I will try and make this maybe and bring a few buddys.

thepartsman, you have a PM from me.

No lunch on Saturday for me. Christmas party on Friday night at the W - Victory Park and we're staying the night at the hotel. Don't see myself being up in time to make it to McKinney by noon. But I might be able to swing by in the afternoon/evening if people are staying around.

Roadhouse sounds good to me.
Robert, we talking Sat & Sun, like last time, or are you only available for Sat?
Tyler called last night, looking for a part, and was interested in GTG, if overnight works for you?

RJ


Yes and No. When I was suggesting it I kinda figured we would just have lunch and then come back to my house until darkish (or a little after) and call it a meet. But I don't want anybody to rush off. So if somebody needs to stay the night, that is ok. Also, my son will be with me this weekend. Unfortunately though, I have to work on Sundays now.

maybe he got uppity in Jack & Lary's Benevolent Dictatorship? [nonono]

Are we sure this is Mike talking? Partsman seemed pretty good about throwing his voice. [laugh]

happy birfday mike!!!



Oh yea, quit using big words! Its throwin me off

Lol im kidding

Since I'll be in town this weekend, The Ranch is open for anyone who wants to come up after we go to Roberts house for awhile.

http://forecast.weather.gov/MapClick.php?CityName=Mc+Kinney&state=TX&site=FWD&textField1=33.2009&textField2=-96.6549&e=0


I hope the weather will cooperate with us. Supposed to be a chance of rain.

Looking forward to seeing everybody again! [coffee] Any "wrenching" projects planned this go round?.....or just mostly "bsing".[laugh]

..

Aaaaahhh!........... Brian make Fire! :)

RJ

Let's just hope the rain holds off. Most of you know how bad it can get after a little rain. :o

As of this AM...no rain till Sunday in N. Tx. I'm sleeping in the bed of my truck!..... (with a water proof tarp, just in case).

Looking forward to seeing everybody again! [coffee] Any "wrenching" projects planned this go round?.....or just mostly "bsing".[laugh]

..

Not unless anyone has any 5" exhaust pipe laying around and wants to cut the muffler on mine and just put a straight on it. [coffee]

I have a piece of 5" aluminized, but I doubt it's long enough.

Mike you dont have a welder on the truck do you? I have a banks muffler I wouldnt mine putting on inplace of the kitty

Does he have a welder on his truck. :D
The proper question is does he only have one?

RJ

Well, wife made plans for Saturday morning and then informed me. I can't make lunch, but I will be out to the ranch. Can't stay over either because I am having DirectTV come to replace my Dish Network equipment with some HD stuff :D on Sunday sometime between 8-12.

~Rob

Great! .......................

Thanks for noticing, Rowland. :)
....... and the answer is 3 welders. :D

Scott, I think I may have some time in the afternoon - but I'm not positive - I gave 1st dibs for the weekend schedule to my Lady.


Hey Rob - I saw ya last night on the way home from Evan's youth group! Your rig had the ears out and the coal rollin'.... [guitar] Those Predators make us look like brothers. :cool:

How long is it?

How long is it?

Anybody else get a quizy feeling reading that question? [laugh]

For those of you that are making your first trip to The Ranch, here are a few pointers/info.

* No indoor plumbing
* No indoor shelter
* If you want to eat and drink, be sure to bring it with you.
* It is probably going to be cold at night and cool during the day. Come prepared...... bedding, clothing, etc.
* If you plan on drinking anything stronger than Mountain Dew, don't plan on driving.
* I have a floor jack, jack stands, air compressor and some tools. Anything beyond that, you will need to bring it.

Any questions or for directions, PM me.

Its like the start of a really bad joke i dont want to hear the ending of......[duhhh]

Well, Tyler gave me his 5" piece at the shop, although I don't remember how long it was after I was finished with it - but it's probably too small to fill up your exhaust hole with the muffler gone. :(

I could measure it for you on Monday, but it sounds like you want to swap tomorrow when all the guys come over to Robert!

Cool, count the new guy in! Sounds fun, is that partsman guy comin he sounds like a character!?

Alright 'Fugitive'! New Blood! Welcome to the DTR. :)
Where you coming from? Fill in signature (under User CP in header) so we know what truck to look for tomorrow!

Anyone interested.... I have a delivery I have to make in McKinney by 10:00 am, so will be hanging around Texas Roadhouse early.... probably from 11 on! Come early if you can, keep an old man company...talk trucks...and beat the noon rush inside! :)

RJ

REMINDER for those that don't know.

I'll be in McKinney in the morning to pick up a few things, so I should be there early.

idk if partsguy is comin fugitive, but trust me there will be plenty more charachters in attendance

Anybody else get a quizy feeling reading that question? [laugh]

haha i thought about that after i put that.

I will be there tomorrow and in my truck but i wont be driving i get a freakin concussion today [dummy]. RowJ we will try and come a little early and we can put that on your truck and you can drive around before everybody gets there. About what time you think you will be at the roadhouse?

Check out the new addition to the sig!! I'll be there tomorrow in one or the other... Have both down in FF right now. The mileage that thing makes makes it tough to drive the truck all the way up there for a day!!

Bought the car down in Houston. Filled the car dove to FF (75-90mph) and just had to top the car off... used $8 in fuel!!! 54.8MPG hand calc!! was AWESOME!!!!

Not a Cummins or a dodge, but still a diesel! with a VE style injection pump at that! lol :D My $600-$700 a month fuel bills were breaking me! Sold my trail truck to make the down payment... If I keep my current mileage/year this little car will save me $3500-$4000/year! Big deal for a college student!

Whichever vehicle I show up with I'll have my adrenaline for RowJ to try and some Opti-Lube for Fade94...

If I end up taking the car if somebody needs electrical stuff post up so I throw it in!

Cool Brian! Can't believe you would let the Yota go though!

I need to get me something to run around in too! 54mpg sounds nice.:cool: But, I hate getting in those little squad cars already...because of the size. I feel safer in trucks!

A while back I saw a lady die after a crash......she got hit in the PASSENGER side door of her Toyota Corrolla while driving (in the driver side obviously) ...TBoned by a Durango. Can't help but think she would have lived had she been in one of our trucks. Size matters![laugh]

..

Speaking of death. I have been training a rookie the past 4 weeks or so. So I have been extremely busy at work taking all the hard/difficult calls.

We went to the stabbing domestic murder of a L/F by hubby...in front of their 2 year old. We arrested him and he was saying what a relief it was that he did what he did. (Bipolar)

Last Sunday a call involved the suicide of a 18 yo kid...put a .45 to his head right above his right ear. His dad found him...(Garland Firefighter) and his mother (Garland Homicide Detective) was on scene too.

Couple of nights ago...worked a kidnapping/abduction/rape at knife point.

Been to jail numerous times for various other things. Been to the psych ward 3 different times with some other fruit cakes.......one of which thought it was a funny joke to spray his 75 yo female neighbor with a fire extenguisher right in the face.

Welcome to the Big D!:cool:

..

Congratulations, Brian - wise choice! :)

I'm wanting to find a Jetta like that, either that or move to town, 12mpg that I don't drive but 4 miles a day is a lot cheaper than 16mpg (too much in town) and having to drive 30 mile round trip 7 days a week.

Robert you should have told me you were meeting this weekend. I keep forgetting to get down to this part of the forum and check it. I could have made it today and met some of the guys.

You know you are always welcome to come. Just watch this area for upcoming events![guitar]

Good to see everybody that came today. We had a couple of new faces. BBA and his friend.

Good to meet Mike's lady. Wow, what a voice! She sang "Happy Birthday" to him today with an "Opera voice" in the middle of Texas Roadhouse and the whole place stopped to listen. Still not sure what language that was. Italian?[duhhh] It was beautiful.

..

Well it was good to meet all of you yesterday! I know me and hayden will be coming back i know when we left he was like im bringin my truck next time. So we will for sure be back if yall will have us. Also thanks for pointing out the whole grid heater ground in the worst spot ( spools much better now!). Maybe next time we can stay longer. Hope yall didnt get to cold last night!

i was thinking about coming to hang out this weekend but an unsucessful hunting trip to the land took up most of my weekend.

Pretty good mini-meet. Met some new folks and hope to see them and some others next time.

Did I ever tell you guys that I HATE COLD WEATHER!

Nice meeting Kevin & Hayden (what's your user name on DTR?).... and the three younger men that showed up in the Dually at 10:00 pm.
Always amazes me how you can almost count on CTD owners being fun people to know... at any age!

'BBA' - Thanks for testing my Quad Box... you let me know the problem WAS in my wiring afterall!

'Hotdram' - Love the new wheels!

'School Bus' - Thanks for the HTS Demo! When that thing shift it feels just like Brian shifting through the gears at the track... a real head snapper!

Sorry I had to leave Sat night... hurt my back playing under the hood in the afternoon. It's been so good lately I didn't bring my pills so had to get home for relief. Pain made me stupid.... I forgot to put the Smarty back to stock (after fixing the wiring on the Adrenaline).
Drove home with Smarty on #7 and Quad Box on #2! :( Can you say "TOO MUCH TIMING", boys & girls? All the way home I was thinking...I don't remember the surging on the Quad Box being this noticable. [duhhh]

Thanks to our president for making 'The Ranch' available. With all you have going on lately, Charlie, it was very gracious of you! Hope we helped by taking your mind off your family problems .... for a while! And it's just not a DTR#8 get-together without an oil fire. :D

Thanks also, to Brian, for figuring out my electrical problem! I was surprised how much I missed the Adrenaline Box!

Happy Holidays to all... may your CTD 'wish list' be completely eliminated. :)

RJ

What does everyone say about the San Antonio Dyno day being a group meet between the Texas Chapters? Or is there going to be enough of you going to say Texas #8 was there?

had fun this weekend guys! Nice meeting the newb's!

I finally got to see brian fix fire!

oh yea, if you dont want Tyler sleeping in the same camper as you, just snore really loud and he will get up in the middle of the night and go sleep in your truck !

What does everyone say about the San Antonio Dyno day being a group meet between the Texas Chapters?
Matt - When is San Antonio?
Alverado is coming up again in February! That would be more central to your group and ours...... and is a great event!

....if you dont want Tyler sleeping in the same camper as you, just snore really loud and he will get up in the middle of the night and go sleep in your truck!
Bet he sleeps with his mouth open (can't shut it during the day:)).... hope he didn't drool all over your seats! (sent you a PM)

RJ

Great seeing everyone again as well as the new guys. I really need to stop bringing my boys to these things. Took the youngest to the dyno day in Lewisville, he still talks about what he wants HIS CTD to do when he gets one. He's 14 now.
Took the oldest to the ranch Sat. My wallet starts to burn every time he sees one of the BOMBED trucks. I still haven't heard the end of how much he likes the BigRed BCS truck...
I swear, I think I just may have my hands full and wallet empty with two boys that are into hot rod trucks. [duhhh][laugh]:o

Did you do it real slow, all maniacal like! All the while doing the DeNiro "I’m watching you" Fingers-to-eye gesture? Then finish with a Sammy Sosa, Peace sign into-kiss-my-fingers-and-pound-your-chest-twice that seamlessly transitioned into a smoky burnout that lasts 2 minuets.....yeah...I should write movies!

Uh-oh...

Hey im here waiting for the rain to get over with and dry up so i can woop up on a kid and his 12v talkin crap.

We're slapping on a 6" exhaust on a members truck here, listening to it sprinkle every once in awhile.

Not gonna share with the rest of us, huh?



Yeah really!! Which 650 did you get?? I am studying up on GPS's too.

..

Not gonna share with the rest of us, huh?

Sure! Been bugging Rob for over a yr for 'user reports' on his Garmin GPS/NAV unit. Everytime I decide to buy a cheap one, he points out all the features I'll be missing by not getting fancier model .... and I hold off till I have some more free cash. Finally decided on the biggest & baddest Garmin, without Bluetooth; so actually a middle priced unit. Garmin nuvi 650! If interested, see HERE (https://buy.garmin.com/shop/shop.do?cID=134)

Was about to order on line through Walmart when.....
Yesterday at 6am was in local store. They had 10 of these on a Christmas Special for $399.00.... got the last one! Retail is almost $600.00, but Garmins retail prices are always high (to protect from compeating w/ dealers, I imagine).

[guitar] Merry Christmas to me. Merry Christmas to me. Merry ................... [guitar]

Go WAY back up the line and you'll find the one I just bought......Nuvi 200...$169.95....no tax. I've used it twice down here and it works great.

Excellent! I'm sure I could have survived with less.... but Rob would'nt let me do it! :) (All his fault)!

You planning on doing what THIS one tells you to do? [laugh]

Good deal Rowland, you won't be sorry :) The WQVGA screen is worth it.
But for a lost less, I would be willing to tell you where to go :)

~Rob

Well yall have fun with the GPS's they will come in handy. Heck my cheap little magellan gets me where i need to go.

Sure! Been bugging Rob for over a yr for 'user reports' on his Garmin GPS/NAV unit. Everytime I decide to buy a cheap one, he points out all the features I'll be missing by not getting fancier model .... and I hold off till I have some more free cash.

Merry Christmas Rowland!! I keep debating about getting one of the Zumo models.....and use it in my truck and also mount it on my ATV while out riding. The Zumo models are specifically for Motorcyclists...and my Brother in law loves his... (he travels all over the USA on a 47 Indian Chief!)

I have also debated about the hand held type too. I go back and forth.

One thing is for sure....the prices may be coming down some....but not NEAR enough.

I may settle and just get the Nuvi 200 like Charlie got.[duhhh]


Congrats on yours!!

I got sent back to wonderful Palestine Texas!!!! Had a woman of the night knocking on my hotel door earlier and I'm guessing her sugar daddy stare'n down the 20's!!!!!!

[director] What a shame!

Scotty's a nice enough guy, steady job and all that - too bad his latent nurturing issues and overcompensation for the feminine side of his psyche have lowered his self-esteem to this tragic attempt of reaching out to a female who'll unconditionally affirm his masculinity ($$$ notwithstanding, of course!).

The holiday season is tough for some folks - maybe we should stage an intervention? http://www.easysmileys.com/img/kicknuts.gif

Might be too late - think that's already been tried! :o

Last Saturday at our chapter meet, Tyler rode all the way up from College Station with Scotty in the School Bus, and I noticed the center console was in the upright position... [tapdshut]

greetings from the north... got down to -5 last night while we were out.... charlie should come visit I hear he loves the cold!

Brian, I hope you soak up all the COLD while you're there... I'll be up in February and I don't want my parts to shrivel up!

MAN....i saw snow this weekend like i have never seen before....it dumped 4" in about half an hour....on top of the 2 we already had.....and found out the Jetta could, indeed, do OK in the snow....on a windy back road.....in the middle of the storm.....i was puckering a few times....im just not used to this stuff! BUT fun to play in!

Just to bring this TTT, I thought I'd try my hand at a Christmas Poem!

Was the night before Christmas, Santa felt less than gay.
He needed more power to handle his sleigh.

So many toys and places to go....
"As the Reindeer get older, we just seem too slow."

All over the world, and just in one night...
"Can't see how to do it, time just seems to tight!"

Then an idea occurred to this crafty old man...
A nice diesel engine would aid in his plan.

"With reindeer in front, and a Cummins in back.....
Every child on earth, gets a toy from my sack!"

So, preserved was the legend, AND later that night.....
As he zoomed over rooftops, and flew out of sight.

He was heard to have said, to one and to all....
.................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................................................. .................

Wonder if it can double as a fuel additive/anti-jel in an emergency?? [guitar][dummy]

Closed that redundant/repeatitive thread. very interesting!!
There is another thread on exactly the same topic... a newbie asking when everyone plugs in. Page one established Cummins recommends 40* & below because friction goes up exponentally below that temp. The rest of the pages are everyone chiming in with when they plug in.... even after learning why they should do so at 40*???
In the last few weeks I have actually been put on hold posting because of an overload of traffic on the site. Guess they ARE trying to conserve bandwidth.

RJ

Explain 'been put on hold?' I've been on vaca and been on here at all times of the day without even a Server Busy message?

Get a screen (DTR screen) saying something about Server can't open the page... try later.

so is there going to be a January meet guys? I got a fuel filter delete I would like to install and may need some help!

You got my vote!
-Farther South is always better
-Great Inside shop/GTG area
-Covered outside sleeping area (if it's wet)

Had a blast there last time.... except for deflating air mattress that resulted in 2 hrs sleep Sat Night!
Pick a weekend. I'm in for Friday nite -Sunday.

RJ

where is your place located?

Brian's in Fairfield, Tx. About 1.5 hr south of Dallas, on way to Houston.... on I- 45.

Great Setup for our meets and surprisingly Oscar, his Grandfather, has said we could come back! :)

RJ

I looked it up on mapquest and it says its about 2 1/2hrs from me but the wy it has me going looks like the long way so it might be a little less. So when everyone comes up with a weekend I can probably come down there. Anybody up for workin on my truck haha [coffee].

From Dallas to my place is right at 1hr 15mins... Never any traffic...

Should be able to fit a couple trucks in the shop at a time for working and staying warm!

So we have weekend of 5th and 12th if we want it at my place... That dyno in SA is on the 5th if people are still looking to go down there?? Personally I don't think 3 runs is worth 8hours of driving...

the 12th would probably work better for me but not sure can probably do either one. Heck i would probably get to drive my truck this time no concussion!

....Anybody up for workin on my truck.
What needs doing? You mentioned it somewhere above but can't find it. anything short of body work or a repaint should be doable.

RJ

I haven't seen either.

Im thinkin maybe studs and might be puttin stock injectors back in for a while until i can find some different ones I think im selling my jammers but not positive on that one.

Anyone interested.... I burned out one of my Sylvania Silver Star bulbs. Found the newer Silver Star ULTRA bulbs at O'Reilys.

I have asked on here before if the Ultras were brighter...or just a new marketing name for Silver Star bulbs?
Never got a definative answer. So I took a chance and tried one!

I found them....
-Maybe 10% brighter.... alot brighter than my old stock bulb I had to use for 3 days over x-mass.
-More important.... no more 'black holes' in the light pattern, Much more even lighting.

I liked it enough, I went back and got a second one for the side that did not burn out. They are $4-5.00 more than the Silver Stars.

RJ

You guys have a great New Year's! Time for another ATV/Camping trip.

Brian, have you ever heard of "RuralShade" RV Park in Kerens, TX.....near Corsicana? Supposed to be pretty close to Richland Chambers I think. Thought since you were so close, you might have been there.[guitar]

We were going to go to Alligator Run again near Longview....but this RuralShade place is supposed to be pretty good....and I haven't ever been. Gonna try it out.

I have the same bulbs in mine now after I got the new headlight. Are you using a HD harness with it?

Looking into it! You have one?
Other option is to just add a relay or two for power direct from battery! I have no over heating switch issues, but the heavier harness is suppose to be brighter! Relay should do same ($5.00-10.00)...I think?
Brian thinks Justin did this mod. Justin??? Where are you??

Good project for the get together.... 12th is good by me!

12th works for me as well... Date set! :D

Yah!

A BIG THANK YOU TO DAN for stopping by my house on the way into town. Great to finally meet the man, the legend. He brought down a new pump motor for me.[coffee]
Ya'll have a safe and happy New Year!

He sure can work fast too.....huh?
Especially on those FASS pumps. :)

RJ

Hey guys I think my APPS sensor is going out on me so depending on how it is come the 12th will depend on if I can make it.

No problem. I posted on your other thread.

I did the replacement harness when I put in my Sport headlights. Power directly off the batteries, triggered by the original headlight plug. The combo of sport lights and new harness was a HUGE increase in lighting.

JM

I might be in :)
Someone is trying to twist my arm to go ATV'ing at a new place that weekend though. It is a mud place, and I'm not in a mudding mood.
Hope my clutch is broken in by then, it's hard to put 500 miles of driving on it when you only commute 11 miles round trip :)

~Rob

Rob - Bring them down to Fairfield! That will put some miles on the clutch and I would like to try that Polaris....if the offer still holds. :)

I ordered extra relays so if they work (make headlights brighter) got a set you can have. Your the EE....... think they will work?

RJ

RJ,
Sure they'll work :)
If I come it will just be me and the truck, not going to hook up the trailer and quads. But the offer stills stands.
I also owe you and Charlie some GPS answers. I am only working until 1 today, so I will get on it when I get home.

Aggie Justin?

Where is everyone else?

I'm planning on going... wouldn't want to mis-stake twice in a row! :D

I will call quad tomorrow and see if he still wants me to come down and if he does depending on how long yall plan on being there sunday me and hayden might come down.

I plan on leaving McKinney about noon on Saturday to head down there.
I will probably leave about noon on Sunday.

~Rob

Depending on when I'm passing through, I may see some of you. Heading to Houston on Friday afternoon to help a friend move into a new house. Should be headed back to Dallas on Sunday afternoon at some time. If you guys are still around Sunday afternoon, I'll try to stop by for a bit.

I'd like to come by and visit for awile if that's alright with ya'll. what time ya gettin started???

As it has been since Oct. 11th, my schedule is not my own. I am suppose to close on my Mom's house in Sherman on Friday and meet with a guy to complete her Medicaid paperwork on Saturday or Sunday in Round Rock. If all goes well, I'll be coming down to Fairfield on Saturday on my way to RR. I can't stay long, but hopefully, I'll get to see everyone for a little while.

Also, if you know of anyone that might be interested in the Starcraft camper, let me know before in put it on Craigslist.

Hope to see you there Charlie.

My grandfather's rent house (on the same property, brown roof 100 yds northwest of the shop) is open, so we will have lots of room for sleeping bags, areo beds whatever... Few showers, so you guys can be presentable.

The fam is planning on grillin up some steaks and chicken on Sat eve again. I'm sure there will be the usual sides as well. (One steak reserved for Charlie or Dom!! :D)... SO I need to know who plans on being there Sat eve!!! Need to get my order in at the local slaughter house! :D


Weather looks like low to mid 60s getting down to high 30s low 40s at night (So ill be sleeping INSIDE!) Maybe a slight chance of rain on Sat...

If you feel your going to get lost pm me and Ill get you my cell #...

..... OK I'm done... You want food on Sat better let me know!
Dom's all excited cause he knows he's getting Charlie's steak! [laugh]

Now that's incentive to be there! [laugh]

I'll need your metallurgy mind for a bit... Need to see what needs to be done to my rear bumper to possibly hook in Alvarado....

Sure - maybe by Saturday I'll have the 304SS lunette ring mount fabbed & installed. I'm also thinking about swapping the '05's rear bumper onto the '98 so I can make an aluminum bumper for it (managed to back over a light pole at the Donut Palace! [dummy])

possibly hook in Alvarado....
Like to see that!

If not installed, bring it anyway!

hey rowland, the place you work at does oil analysis right?

Only on our own products. Our Spectrometer is set up to only read our additives and base oils.

But we do use a national company for independent analysis. Pre paid kits are $15.00 each........ if you want one. Let my know!

RJ

I would like one sir! Thanks

I'll take another for the car if you dont mind... Will be filling my cup this weekend on the Dodge when I install the quick change valve thingy!
