    Yeah back at Firestone now to have it redone. This is gonna be the 4th attempt with it. I’m all for checking every year, and if something goes arise obviously. But for just driving on the road and every tank of gas the alignment drifts off again, not sure what’s going on

    After the alignment, take a paint marker, TO ALL adjustable points.
    Mark cams,/eccentric washers, nuts/bolts, jam nuts, blah blah.

    If you notice it starting to drift, look for out of place marks....

    Oh sweet, congrats! And Bethel... WAYYY WAYYY better than Scumford. I didn't want to bash it too much for your sake but honestly, you dodged a bullet there. You'll find out now that you are going to be local..

    I don't mind driving around most parts of Boston. I could usually fit my truck in places people with tiny cars wouldn't attempt. My only issue is that now it seems acceptable to play bumper cars when parallel parking.

    @micwillia where in Bethel did you end up? Sunday River Brewing does a really good beer and they're worth a visit as soon as you get settled in :thumbsup:

    I welcome bumper cars... but then again I get more complaints that my truck damaged their car when they hit me and I wasn't even in the car....

    You should be good with less than a gallon. I used three quarters of a gallon for a 1st gen, a 2nd gen and a heep.

    :rofl::crapstorm:

    Congrats! Movers + UHaul is the way to do it. That's what we did for Boston -> Nashville. If you rent a truck through Penske you'll get a discount for SML, which then act as a middleman to find local moving companies. Ends up being pretty cheap. And Penske trucks are worth every penny.

    Looks nice, I like those a lot. I absolutely loved my Fizzy. Wish I never sold it.

    I'm basically 1 mile or less to the center of Bethel. Oh I know Sunday River Brewing very well; usually a go to for a dinner & beer once I'm up there. I don't think I'll be settled in before I make it back there. Best part though, I can join a mug club, likely Matterhorn's, and not feel like I'll be wasting $$.

    Tell me more of this Penske/movers deal??? My GF gets a discount off Penske through work so that may even be a better move.
