This week's project was to build ramps that would hold the Yeep and get it onto the truck;

Hey Bob, there's a couple other things that will cause the passenger side vents to blow warm on a third gen other than the blend doors. Could be the engine cooling fan clutch or just low freon charge.

or maybe it takes less time and the neighbors complained
In either case I really don't want him to fore-go that important step.

Its something only a chef would understand. Sorry Blake.



I remember watching my dad dump the msg on our steaks when he BBQ'd. Back then we thought it was good for us.
Some Chinese music sounds like Banjo music to me. I can picture Scott all dressed up with his Fu Manchu look...chop chop.

The Oriental buffet that I go to in CA has a sign that proudly says that they use msg. I figure once every few months wont kill me and their food is great!

Thanks! Surprisingly, it gets better mileage when hauling the trailer than Michael's 98 Dodge. Cheaper insurance too. Just wish I could tweak a little more HP out of it tho. Moderate hills will drag it right down to 50 or 55. Apparently, Jake ain't the only dog I own. Ought to be an interesting trip this fall out to New England and back.

About 16 feet. And it goes right up thru the center of the cab too so I can hear the turbo better. Jake doesn't like it tho. Once in awhile he'll accidentally lean into it and get a nasty burn!

Ok, I give up. What's 'msg'? Message?

Evening all.

Cant believe the admins let you talk like that. I mean, if you were to stand on a street corner repeatedly yelling MonoSodiumGlutamate at the top of your lungs you would get arrested around here.
