    Yes I still want it. Now that you aren't coming, just need to figure out when/how to get it.

    My 10 year old was going to her mom's on Friday night, but said she would stay most of the day Saturday if you are bringing your daughter. What time are you thinking about rolling in? My daughter wants to know what your daughter's name is (You can shoot me a pm).

    Jim, you mind if I clean your tires up a little. I can tell you thou, I definitely like the look! I can feel the difference in the driveway about the tread blocks. The jack barely got the front end high enough to change them.

    Just pm'ed a google map link and my phone number to the guys who are on the list that didn't attend last time. Give me a call if you need some general direction help.

    If you plan to come and didn't get a pm. Post a request or pm me for directions!

    From the North, take your favorite way into Huntsville (65/565, 53, 72). Head south on Memorial Parkway to Hobbs Road. There is a Walmart and Shell station at the turn. Follow the map I pm'ed to get to my house from there.

    From the South, Take 65 North. In Birmingham, you can come up 231/79 from Tarrant City or continue on 65 to Hwy 36 (If you go North to 565, follow the directions from the North). This will bring you to the South End of Huntsville. Turn right on Green Cove rd, follow the map I pm'ed to get to my house from there.

    I would love it if you cleaned up the tires. I couldn't get the farkin mud off after my last trip. :( Glad you like them though! They're pretty wicked, I love those tires, you'll love them more in the mud when you can actually roll forward instead of getting stuck!

    Still want to sell a small gas can? I need to get one so I can get gas for my mower, my lawn is getting pretty jungle-icious.

    Also, everybody: http://i239.photobucket.com/albums/ff262/Gadget2317/2011-05-10_22-16-05_41.jpg

    Sorry Kyle, pink pipe is a mockup, will be replaced with a silicone boot, so you can't accessorize your engine bay! :)

    I've made 3 trips back and forth between Bham and montevallo in the last 24 hours, the construction is making it so much more fun.

    LOL! Jim you're so funny!

    Start Rant:
    So i got an update from the douche... They "should" be on the Friday Fastnal shipping truck.. Notice i said "should". Not sure if he is going to make it right by adding the front hoop yet but we'll see.. If he does i won't make such an elaborate post about his business ethics if he doesn't make it right then well gonna have to let everyone know what they are dealing with. I know it sounds childish but it is also very unprofessional to have a "Business" and then he should be allowed to get away with whatever he wants.. Personally i think eating the added $75 cost to save his reputation would be worth it. Don't you?
    End Rant:

    Also old Willy Wonka decided to schedule a pick up of a Mustang seat on Saturday but lo and be hold he needs my truck.. Not a problem right... It's in SCOTTSBORO!! Yeah he's fronting me a little gas money but i'll be leaving for a little bit only to return 2 hours later. Maybe if i knew someone close to Scottsboro that could spot Will $25 for the seat pick it up for him then bring it to the meet where Will, will reimburse them... Hmmmm! Just a thought...

    I'll give them a once or twice over. They really change the look of the truck. Didn't expect it to look so different with just a tire change. This is the first set of aggressive tires I have drivin with. Didn't expect to feel the tread blocks at slow speeds. The growl is noticable up to about 70 and then the wind noise blocks it out. My TPMS light came on this morning, but all the tires check fine. I think they aren't synced with my system. Interesting that it took the truck 15 minutes to decide that.

    Yes, and for anyone else that would like a 2 gallon gas can that was used twice I have plenty for sale!

    Pics look sweet. I can't wait to see what you think once you get it back.

    Kyle, You can drop the compressor by anytime after 4:15. I could have used it change the tires out. I was standing on my 4 way and still couldn't get one to break loose. Ended up using the stock wrench with a cheater. The must have used to different guns on the truck when the put my tires on last time, both rear were a b*tch, but the front was easy.

    You bet eating 75 would be worth it. Expecially since most of it would be labor cost.

    As for the mustang seat....%Cough@Matt%Cough

    Either way on cleaning them, I was mostly joking. They came to you muddy, they can come back that way. A bit of aggressive tread really does make the truck look mean though doesn't it?

    My TPMS light was on too with Paul's tires. They stay sync'd with your original wheels, but letting the light stay on doesn't hurt anything, and it'll go off when your originals are back on.

    Coolio, how much is one? (So I have cash on me)

    Also, Kyle, I don't blame you at all for being aggravated. Sounds like he is not handling this very well or taking customer service into much consideration.

    Well i gave him plenty of my $0.02 cents in both of my Pm's and i think that is the only reason i am getting responded to! I think he is afraid of what i might do.. I told him that I understood he is overwhelmed but i was about to back out all together if i had not heard from him and i told him the main reasoning for wanting a refund was lack of communication and poor organization! I was very frustrated with him and he has been slightly more prompt with me since! I have taken screen shots of every false promise ever made by him to me and others and i have my records of pm's so if all goes well then the public might not hear all of it but if it doesn't.. Well lets just say I'll have a lot of negative rep and possibly be banned because everyone will want to suck up to him!

    Are we going to wheel Saturday? Kyle, did you find anything about the other place? If we end up not doing anything Saturday, I'm looking to go to wooley's, grayrock, skyline or something on Sunday.

    Jim, can't remember exactly, but I think $8 will be fine. I think they were almost $10 plus tax. I have the receipt and I will make sure I'm giving you a break.
