SC really? Tell me EXACTLY what you had to do to get a load to the Carolinas, because I NEVER get runs there even after begging, pleading, cussing and crying. Oh, I think I know why you got it, you don't live in that area...

Truck in the shop getting king pins replaced, 2 small oil leaks ( I really dislike oil leaks ) , and new shocks on steer axle. Should be completed on Monday. Had all 8 drive tires replaced on Tuesday. That should wrap up the major repairs just have a few more minor things to get fixed.

Now enjoying the first BBQ of the season ..... I love the ol charcoal fired Weber!!!!!

Stopped in Piqua Oh...Pam had called with a possible PU in Hamilton Oh goin to Bozeman Mont..and i didn't want to get too much further north and have to run back further to get to the pu...well the load never happened , so as i was getting on I 75 Guido passed right in front of me. We ran together and talked on the phone for about 2 hours till i got home. Good conversation, nice slower pace drive and now home and OOS until Sunday afternoon....

You all have a great weekend and be safe...:D

I can't believe what a difference it made putting on a K&N air filter. I gained 2 mpg, I am now at 14.4. Nice. Had to order it and it cost 68.00 but it is paying for itself quickly. Anyone got some other fuel saving ideas I can utilize.
