Keystone State Thread

Ha,you spelled Aisin wrong, but seriously I agree

 

We’ve had a customer at work that has a couple late model Express vans and the engines both went at a little over 100k

 

My old boss had the v6 express van and it was a work horse had over 260k mi before he sold it and bought a Nissan NV. To be fair I wouldn't be using it everyday. As I mainly do my windshield work on weekends. Replacing windshields is my side gig.

 

Both of the ones that failed were the 6.0’s

 

Good morning Pennsylvania. Woke up with a migraine. If it's not one thing it's something else. Also could be from all the meds I'm on too. Who knows.

 

Good morning all. @Tatts521, I hope you fell better soon.

 

Me too. This is getting old fast

 

Good morning all.

 

Good morning neighbor to the North.

 

Morning Pa. Second day off this week, pulled something in my back. Don't have a history of back problems. PCP fit me in yesterday, nurse gave me a shot in my azz, that stuff works. Two scripts later I'm hoping to go back to work tomorrow. No fun being off and can't do anything. Told my Doc back in my electrical construction days, regularly carried a bundle of pipe over both shoulders, jumped in and out of ditches, up and down ladders, pulled feeder wires... etc no problems. Doc said it's all catching up to my back now in my older years. Young tradesmen, be careful how you carry out tasks throughout your work days. Step down off your trucks, don't jump or swing down. Watch twisting carrying a load or stretching too far. Buy good quality footwear. Learn from my mistakes. Ok lecture over, headed to my dentist appointment for regular cleaning. Take care of yourselves....

 

I feel you! I wish now I'd have been smarter in my youth! Getting old is not for the faint of heart.

 

Just got done at the dentist finally they found the issue. It wasn't showing on the xray on Friday but today it showed the infection and the tooth was basically dead. It took 5 shots of novacane to numb it up for them to remove the nerve. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day.

 

If you didn't have shit luck I'd think you didn't have any luck at all

 

Glad they finally found it! I had a former coworker who ended up hospitalized over a tooth that was infected. That's some serious shit there so don't mess with it.

 

I'll tell you what Adam. Luck has never been on my side. Its always 1 step forward 5 steps backwards. Story of my life.
