My name is Josh and soon I should be in another diesel truck, just trying to be patient and wait for that one good deal. Hopefully I will have one before June 2. If I do I will come out and meet up with you guys. CANT WAIT FOR ANOTHER DIESEL!!!!! I would like to join a chapter and get in the diesel community. Also I am looking for a 96-98, 12V, 2500, 4x4, Auto(preferred), Q-cab in good shape, under 200K mi, under $11,000. Know where one is? I am out of Waco, TX.
Some of the trucks in the classifieds here are a little pricy, but in most cases you can get a lot of info. Especially if it's listed by a long time member. You might also check craigslist.com.

No problem.
Charlie, I might go get the WW on Saturday the 2nd and bring it home...for loading....and then bring it to Sedalia. If it is ok with you, I may just leave it there until the 14th when I leave for Arkansas. I should be getting the papers finished up by then and take possession.
Also, I have a Putnam XDR Class V hitch on the way. Maybe Sunday I can get it installed while up there.

This should provide a little extra capacity for the heavy tongue weight.

I'll give a tentative "I'll be there" for now. If my boy's ball team keeps winning, I will be at the games. Semi finals are this week, finals next if they make it through the semis.
I'll bring my Cheby if I can make it out there and maybe run both depending on time.

At least you didn't have to pay $450 a piece.....good luck with those tires. I had them on my truck and I hated them. As soon as the roads got wet I couldn't keep the truck from getting sideways to save my life...2nd gear take offs were impossible, 3rd would just swing the back end out, and heaven forbid I was on the interstate and wanted to punch it to get around somebody...

For all of you insect challanged folks, I'll buy a bottle of yard spray and put it down ahead of time. I'll just add it to the cost of the food.
Speaking of food.......any ideas for Friday night?

Tyler, you better get busy posting. I noticed in another thread that WannaDiesel is gaining on you quickly!
I think he is up to 12,200 some odd posts. He is gonna take your "Top Poster" crown away from ya in a couple of weeks.

Whoopty doo. I ain't had the energy nor the time to post thanks to work. Worked 13 hours monday, 10 yesterday, and probably 12 today, 10-12 tomorrow, and who knows how many friday. Not to mention I think it's my turn to work on saturday which ticks me off. Oh well. Billet shafts shouldn't be to far away.

"Insect challanged"....cute! How about Chigger Chow.
Those Fajitas were excellent last time...my vote says let's do em again! (Who cleaned the pans?... not that they needed much cleaning after Evan & Mike got through)
