Have not been a part of the breakroom until it moved back in time.

My anti-social behavior will still exist.

I would've ignored you anyway


When do we get to leave March? I'm ready for summer. You could've just as easily moved it the other way!

Good morning to all from Paradise. Have y'all be behaving appropriatly while I was gone? Yeah, yeah, I know, nobody even knew that I was gone.

Was away all of last week doing my best to support your sagging economy. Did not go that far, but did manage to put just over 1,800 trouble free miles on the truck. Was as far north as Austin, Texas and boy, was it cold and windy! Not nice at all! In contrast to that, both going up and coming back, saw 102 degrees F on the overhead twice. Sure appreciated the A/C.

Many years ago, here on DTR there was a long thread on the sweet spot in our trucks. For mine it is 1800 - 1900 rpm. 1900 rpm gives me an indicated 71 mph. Drove for a long time at 75 - 80 mph, but at that speed our trucks have the aerodynamics of a brick, so the mileage suffers.

Did not get lost at any time except for one place in San Antonio that had no road signs - and the few they had were confusing, even worse than Mexico. Yup, my APC did perform very well and even passed the Texas state inspection with no problems. Got back on Friday, so was on the road for 6 days.
Nothing to report from north of the border, except for the unpleasant cold and constant wind in Austin.
