Get you a dually, that way you can really chunk the rocks.

yeah that would be nice, but I dont think the others would like that to much...haha. Im not even really trying to get it but I always liked them and one popped up so I thought I might take a peek and see whats up.

I really like the mega cab dually longbeds that are floating around but man they gotta be a pain to drive sometimes.

no sir, I always liked them so I am just taking intrest in one that has came up. If it doesnt work out no chip on my shoulder, I love mine now.

Btw, I did take the tires off though. That 300 miles to a 34 gallon tank got old so I put the old ones back on and now I am loving the 400+ to a tank.

Tell ya what Kyle, you get something that can really throw the rock again, and we'll get a bunch of fireworks and see how many flashbacks you can have. That was great timing that day.

Yea well see i dyno'd last time with the same setup minus the fass and maybe a couple of smaller things but had comp and jammer 5's. That was at the dyno day in lewisville if anyone was there. I think i found the problem though my comp was hooked up just right i think. So i will see where im at saturday. Oh yea water/meth added but cant seem to get it to actually spray? So im thinking maybe clogged line or something? I proabably wont mess with it until saturday. So if i dont have it working by then yall can come help me out lol.

He said my 'SSSSS' will not be back from the Powdercoater in time for this weekend.

I have been working tons of overtime. I signed up for some and put my name down on a bunch of spots........expecting to get a little bit. Well I got it all! The money will be nice, but these 14hr days are killing me......day after day after day! So that is why I haven't been as active as usual here on DTR, myself.

I know where there is about 10 acres that may be for sale. It's not cheap, but it does come with at travel trailer, stock trailer, two stall barn with a leaky roof, mowers and a NON-running Massy.

haha, yeah that was great timing. I dont think yall could have done it any better ever again. It stopped me right in my shoes...haha

As for the tires I am going to try and sell them. Since that one has some blemishes on it I am going to try and let them go cheap. This whole divorce thing is not going very well and the soon to be ex-wife isnt helping the situation any...

Is your stock clutch hating life?

I've been trying to sort out some issues with my DD... Dang thing isn't releasing completely (or so that's what I think).... Getting into gear from idle can be a PITA.... With the truck in 2LO I can put it in gear an have my foot to the floor and the truck will barely creep forward... Peter is being really cool about it and is sending me another set of hydros to test out... I got an older set from SBC's master distributer in Ft.Worth with the two halves disconnected. All the new ones ship connected.... So hopefully I just got a weak set and I'll be good....
