    I am keeping it on the cross members. I looked at this when Dan gave me the Morimoto thingy, and because our pans drain straight down it doesn't have enough room for my comfort level-I hit sheet! I could make spacers and drop it but that is counter to my desire of clearance clarence.

    @pearing
    -14° here today.
    Got a good 1 for ya.
    Mary woke me this morning saying she couldn't get the door open so she could put the dog out. So go look at the door. I unlock it and it opens.:facepalm:
    Here the good part.
    I put a jacket and hat on and slip on some crappy boots.
    Mary's says, " No pants or socks, your crazy."
    I say, " If Pat can do it, I can do it."
    Mary says, " Pat's corrupting you."

    So I guess this thread more about than just spending money.

    Surely you can't be serious.
    I am serious - get the quote right and don't call me Shirley.
    Coworkers and I were just saying we could use a few Tauntauns.
