Wow, that's cheap, $2.68 here check this out http://www.gasbuddy.com/ ........Back to topic.......Getting some P 265 75R 16's today Michelin's

 

Started it! Video will be posted later

 

fixed my brake light bulb burnt out, and set up my factory fog lights so they stay on with my high beams

 

drove to the farm and cleaned 4 months and 2 round bales worth of pop cans, bottles, fast food wrappers and alfalfa hay out of the bed, right into the dumpster, cleaned it out b/c i want it clean when i start the new semester at Black Hawk Tuesday (leaving sunday, before noon)

then drove to a pizza place in town to pick up some carryout

 

Gotcha, i was a first responder back when i lived in florida, blue lights are for the tailight chasers and the reds are for the fire/meds. i still got my red teardrop in the garage

 

I secured my new tool box with J-hooks instead of the double sided tape I've been using for the last 2 months , tightened up a loose shock, fixed my high beam issue, and checked all the fluids.

I tried tightening the steering box to get rid of some of the slack in my steering, but I just got covered in power steering juice and the slack is still there.

I also removed the mixture of grass hay and two stroke oil that's been living in my box for the past week. That was nasty.

 

did you replace your tie rods and drag links after you hit the tree? what about the rest of the steering components?

check the tire pressure? even as little as 2psi difference can cause a pull.




anyways last night i hooked the train horn up, that beast is loud even with only 120 psi when i should be running 150. but unfortunately i had to spend 60 bucks at home depot for 40ft of 12ga wire, 20 feet of reinforced hose, and several fittings to change from the compression fittings that came with it, to 1/4" barbed hose fitting. as well as put a gauge on it as well.

ran a switch for the compressor in the cab to keep it from draining my battery. also ran a seprate horn button for the solenoid on the horn itself.

i will get pics and a vid or 2 later on.

 

I live on the far east (by niagara falls as I believe you know since I think you were born here) the further west you go in NY the cheaper the gas gets so its not a NY tax thing...they say its because of pipeline routes and all kinds of total BS.... about $2.95 a gallon today... Good thing I dont pay for my gas on my work van.....
think I'm gonna go out and clean my iac since we are having a heat spell at 34degrees right now....

 

Man, what a difference. I had forgotten how good my truck could drive, and ride!!!

 

drove it to my grandparents, picked up my parents and drove back home, later gonna pack it up for tomorrow

tomorrow (since i will be without internet) it will be driven back to Kewanee (255 miles)
