Good afternoon all

Ok Madhat first good luck at the course. MOS 6316 no allocations for Staff Sergeant so I got 9 Months till Terminal. High ten Year. For the rest of DTR I got drawn for ELK in NM this year and I will be making a I-10 trip this Aug and plan to make a stop or too and would like to link up with some DTR members along the way to make the drive and experance that much better. Pm me if you are close to I 10 and I can bring you all any thing from FL or NM on the way back.

Here is to Levi's Elk/DTR trip.

 

Very nice pix there! I am not floating yet...I say YET because of what I am seeing build in the sky and how the forecast went from 30% to 60% POP in the last 2 hrs. We have not had any real hot days yet but they are coming tomorrow. Then we should get some good thunder boomers.

Gather round the Pho0o0 Pot, I have some more [censored] and [censored] I am putting in. This should be cool.

 

Well, finally made it back to the homefront. Think I'm gonna take off for South Carolina tomorrow on the HD. Don't ask why I would go to SC. Or may shoot back out and go up the Skyline for a cool ride. Decisions decisions. What to do with my week off.........:o

 

Sorry to hear that, buddy. That really sucks. High tenure... it sucks. How many years you been in?

 

Got ten years in so far and 7th on the lenure list and never hit the below zone. I am working on getting on with Avionics contractors here in FL. I will miss my Marines and our brothers in arms. I think I have a few Gunnys up at the course with you.

 

I'll be at Pendleton...

Good luck on those jobs... I can't imagine having to get out.

 

Nothing to be scared of. I have seen plenty of things while in the U.S. Marine Corps so getting out is nothing to sweat about. I know life out of the green Machine any way. Where are you stationed? I am looking at getting a few upgrades for the Cummins for my trip. Last year I got 40 miles from El Paso when I got a High Rail Pressure code and lost all power. I had my Smartty set to Econ. when it happen. I reset the program to stock and have only had it happen once after that. Any Ideas?????

 

I'm in Yuma.

Could be a dirty connector, or a sensor going out. The smarty will push higher rail pressure than stock, so you might throw a code.

Was the truck running ok?

 

Evening DTR.

Good luck Mark!


I start my new position as Elecric Meterman at work tomorrow morning looking forward to it!

 

Actually, some of us can pull that look off with the right socks. However, you cant tie the gown or it doesnt flow right in the breeze.

Is it like working in a bakery where you get to bring the old electricity home with you for free?

Navy mut?

Way too easy, I'll let it go.

I sure hope you meant DVD.


Too easy again, pass.

Evening all.

 

every thing ran fine. I got to the truck stop off I-10 in van horne TX. Let the truck idle while I ran in to use the hed and grabe some chow and jumped back in to push on down the road and when I was on the on ramp i gave her a little fuel and she was gutless and threw a code. this was after 18 hours of 70 mph driving. I am not sure what it was.

 

Ah, it happens... It just burped.

 

Mad

Did I read that right? You're a Jar Head?

 

Yeah. I think it's terminal, too.
