I like my custom mount, however, I was thinking about making one out of wood in the same shape as the dash, and staining it really nice...

Ya absolutely NO alcohol on location, and I don't even drink that much at home as I can be called out at any time. Makes you appreciate the ones you get that much more.

Remember, you can get that stuff through the DTR store.

That was never even in question. Just wish I would have been able to get my AEM, and 4" here. That was before I was 'enlightened' though.

Gotcha. When I was a hat, I could not drink, but it was because I was so dang dehydrated....

I have gauge envy too, but I'm too dang cheap to spend money on stuff that I don't need!

Question

When you stop being a hat, do you get to keep your campaign as part of the uni, or is that for DI's only.

Evening guys

Hat, I remember when you were running both manual gauges and the Juice. How different were the readings between the two? I've been saving for the Smarty and also wanting to keep the Juice for gauges.

Doing good, paperwork heavy.

Typing up "as builts" Its documentation for all the pipe we have laid for the last three days. Has pipe info, weld info, traceability info etc.... It sucks, but is DOT monitored and required....
