    Not this time, he was with me at work and I was on the phone. He got bored and wandered off. He's been with me at work multiple times before and never done this, might have only just found it this time, who knows. The pile was hidden behind some boxes and cylinders that haven't been moved in years.

    Full pup update: he'll be fine. They made him throw up, fed him a bowl of activated charcoal, and gave us a two week supply of beef flavored vitamin K. He's already back to his energetic playful self.

    That's good news. Glad he's doing better.

    Now quit neglecting him. Give him pets from all of us. :D

    Seriously considering a 3rd gen purchase in 2024. Last of the run and there are some really good tax incentives (nearly full depreciation for year 1) for capital purchases for the self employed. Maybe an AC cab for the extra bed space.

    Not wanting to jump into year 1 of the 4th Gen.

    I really liked my 2018 access cab , manual. Sold it because I can’t drive for an undetermined amount of time. 70,000 trouble free miles.

    AC cab for you is the best option.
    A nice work cap /with side door pockets/ could be an option.
    Or, take the rear seats out of GB…

    Definitely a cap again. Cab height with good rack.

    When our dog was a puppy she liked underwear, we went to the vet a couple of times. She grew out of it after a while. Scary and frustrating.

    There’s a reason that a lot of cable, exterminator,dish companies use these rigs, cost effective.

    I'm assuming production has ended on the 3rd Gens and I'll have to take what's available. Was thinking mid summer.

    Most likely. So I can expense 100% of new truck for work. I'll probably need to get that rusted body area where my running board is attached fixed this spring/summer. Need to find someone to fix it "just to get by for a while".

    Can confirm: telling a woman to calm down does not work. :anonymous:
    Well, I didnt actually tell my sister to calm down. She was asking if id give my nephew snowboarding lessons and got snippy with me when I said I was busy af right now. I said ‘when my orders calm down and my test is over’ and hooooly shit she misread it and nuked. Took a minute and me asking wtf she was talking about. “YOU DONT TELL ME TO CALM DOWN” like woman.. I said my orders. Jesus I don’t know how you dudes do it honestly. :rofl:

    They hear what they want to sometimes, like everyone, but why you?
    Tell her to get someone else to teach him or have her put him on a board AND PUSH..
    You have very important things happening soon. You have to take care of #1. YOU…
