Ask your sales manager if he'll take "D plan" for it. If so, we'll be right on down...

Because to be greater, you must not only do better, you must do more. That is why I am working on the weekend.

we have 3 groups that do saturday service. They wanted a diesel tech with each group, I don't gripe, so I agreed to do it. Every third saturday isn't too bad.

How's work going today, Vince? Any 6.0's show up in the work bays?

 

[blacksnapon]

So far its just been service work (oil changes) and travelers with an overheating problem (I'M PISSED--I GOT BURNED ON MY HAND!)

Hey Goose.............. You wouldn't want this shelby.........getting it off the truck they skinned the bottom of the lower valance.........we'll have to discount the snot out of it just to sell it..........I know you wouldn't want damaged goods.........being you're a buddy, and I wanted to save you from a bad investment--I told them NO WAY!

I hate doing that, I've gotten a few cat and muffler burns myself.

Changing the muffler bearings is a pain too.

Yeah, that's why I took mine out.

I wish I'd a known you were working on a Saturday. I'd have brought the beast down for the flash update.

Wow... I was working too this weekend.

1) Son's Boy Scout Eagle Project (Saturday 1/2 day).

2) Drove to lake home and mowed yard (Saturday pm)

3) Worked on new front deck/porch for lake home (all day Sunday)

I have a blister from my Dewalt drill (screwing deck scres in)... not as bad a burned hand... but none the less... an injury!!!

Happy Father's Day everyone!!!!

Since it is so badly damaged, I will take it off their hands for free. They need to get it off the lot to make room for something else anyway.

Besides, after driving it once, I could sell it and re-build my truck.

Gotta drive it once.
