Keystone State Thread

Got the glass rack installed in the bed of the truck bolted down wont be going anywhere. Made a quick little platform for the backseat. Seats have been removed for close to 2 years. Finally able to get that done. Nothing fancy but will do the job.

 

Cool to be working with your brother, you have someone you know and can trust

 

Nice day today, cut 2 lawns, trimmed 3. Now all caught up -- for a few days...

 

Picked up a set of Sport Edition 17x7.5 42 offset A8-2 wheels with snow tires for $100, selling the tires for $125. Bought a set of 245 65 17 Falken Wildpeak AT3W's Extra Load from Discount Tire Direct (store on McKnight Rd.) for $187 a tire. These tires are one size bigger than the factory 19" tires (equivalent to a 245 55 19). Rides so much better, lost 4.5lbs of rolling mass per corner, handles better, looks way better. Not the wheels I wanted but for the price (making money off them after selling tires) I can't complain. Wasn't sure how they'd look. Thinking I need to paint the letters white. Going to custom cut some vinyl to make the center caps black with either red or the same color blue TRD letters. The wheels are more of a gun metal grey than a dark silver. I know there's a bunch of you that have the new Rav4. Can't wait for EGR or Weathertech to finally make a set of in channel ventshades for these.

 

y’all need to know: Matt is the real deal.

He replaced the broken rear window on my truck last year and did a fantastic job.

10/10 would recommend

 

Good morning fellow Pennsyltuckyvanians!!! Welcome to Friday!!!

 

Good morning PA TW. Goin to physical therapy this morning then then gonna try to get mowing in with the rain. I do the one handed push mowing and the wife does the riding right now. It was pretty interesting the first time she was on the zero turn lady week. We both were laughing so hard at her getting used to it. Thank god I got a flat spot in the yard with no trees for her to learn. Everyone have a good Friday and be safe

 

Yep, happy Friday.

 

The yard was soggy in some places, maybe even swampy in a place or two, but I got my grass cut yesterday. And now, the rain is falling... again.

 

I also am in the process of taking apart an old swing set/fortress that my grandson used for years. We bought it used about 10 or 11 years ago. When we cut down a number of trees on Sunday, it was with the purpose of moving his trampoline over to that part of the yard. The old swing set was sitting next to the trees, so it had to go. I tried to give it away, but no takers. To be honest, the treated lumber that we buried in the ground for stability was just about rotted. So, I put the sawzall to it yesterday after cutting the grass but it's a substantial structure. I got about half of it cut.

 

Good Morning PA Folks. Off to see the knee surgeon today about the knee. I'll know more after the appointment. With all of the talk about cutting grass and trimming, it reminded me I need to go get a hair cut.

Good luck and best wishes getting your business started Matt .

Have a great day folks and be safe.

 

Best wishes for good results.

 

Thanks John and Charlie. Have a good one.

 

Good morning and happy Friday to all. I get to be the only thing with a pulse in my office this morning so this should be interesting. I'll get done what I can and the rest can sit until Monday.

 

Hope all goes well at the Doc

 

I got a shepherd that doesnt stop. And a boxer that like climbing on things. Alpha the shep loves to play fetch like non stop morning, night bedtime don't matter to him.
Picture is of him dropping his toy at my feet. And the boxer climbed on my lap.

 

Thanks for the kind words.

 

Good luck with you business. You should do well.

 

I went out this morning with 150 business cards. And they were gone in a half hour. I hit every local mechanic shop, cab companies, body shops, detail shops. Now gotta wait till my bro gets out of work to pick up 2000 more cards.
