lol you having fun jumping through all of those hoops just to drive?

the only sticker I have to get is the year sticker on the back license plate...and I just go to the DMV for that.

I had to take emissions once...haven't had to since...
That's the Common Wealth of Virginia for ya. No choice.

Georgia is a no inspection/sticker/emission state

I don't even know that I HAD to do the Non Fouler trick, but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

yeah I need new tires. Mud tires will help out ALOT. But had I had the Dodge I wouldn't have had to take the Ford out in the pasture to bring the trailer home.

Got the part ordered for the Dodge today . Should be here sometime around Monday. Then provided it ain't too cold I'll work on it and be that much closer to having it out of the shop.

Found out today the JD 2640 NA diesel needs a rebuild. Engine is shot, might be cavitation.

This is what's left of a dirt road down in Jeff Davis County, Ga. Caused by severe flooding, prompting many school closures.

Got a text from wife around 5:30 this evening - part of roof blew off. Too dark to take pics when I got home. Winds gusting around 50. Ram is seafley tucked away in garage, and electric gate at house is out of order - wind slams open and screws up limit switches.

Wind in west Texas is common, but this is screwy having it here!

I'll bet it's not on the back of a Dodge Cummins


Despite the ice we got last night and the all day rain, my brush guard is out for delivery!!! If it stops raining long enough I might be able to put it on today.

Damn rain!
