Putting my stereo into my 08. Keeps me out the house away from the missy. Hoping to do some tuning on my 02 just prior to ripping the twins off. I just got a smoken deal on a garrett GT 4088 VNT. My early chrismas present to myself. Just finding the right primary to go with it. It kant be normal. There has to be some large frame turbo for VGT stuff. You have buy a controller anyways. I'm kinda pumped. Its off a international 466 truck, its not quite the same as the GT4088, but awfully close. They are 1/2 to 3/4 the price of a S300.

I never go too far for Christmas-everybody that I need to see lives close and I work Christmas Day anyways. It's an unspoken rule at least where I have worked that everyone comes in Xmas Day to make it a quick day, and then again New Year's Day to flip the charts and get home at a decent time. Had a cross-shift once stick me with the 25th by myself-so I never volunteered to show up on the 1st to help him. Never pulled that trick again as far as I know.....

I bought a new Borgsen steering shaft for my '03 but got caught in that wrong shaft thing. 950 fits 2nd gens, 951 fits 3rd gens. Unfortunatly their catalouge states the 950 fits 1995-2006. Soooo a new 951 shaft is on its way from the factory, hopefully it will come in time to install it over Xmas.

Easy to believe when you look at his location. Florida is probably quite nice this time of year once you get past all the hurricane debris.

Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all!!

My last day at the plant is Friday - I may have to drink a little. Then a week off. Gonna roll the truck out to relatives about an hour East for Xmas to visit with those I haven't seen in a while.

It's not clear what the company is doing with me after the new year - aka they really won't commit to saying anything. After a call from someone else last Friday..........Libya maybe..........still waiting for information.

We're going to have our 1st christmas here in the new house, let the girls make this home over the holidays.

looks like there's a better than good chance I'll be going on a 28 and 28 to Dubai in the new year. So we'll see how that pans.
