    I do agree with being such a wide spread area of destruction and yes you are correct but....there is some preventive things they could be doing like cutting back growth of limbs over and around power lines during the past how many years ya know?

    Hopefully you get your power back soon man........for sure!!!! :)

    I know. Did not think my Coleman would last 8 days of non-stop run. I have to give Coleman props. It saved us. We had heat, cooked on propane, had some lights and everything was charged. Used 7-10 gallons of fuel per 24 hours of run depending on temp outside

    Yep. 8 days running Generator non stop. I tough I am goign to be unlucky 1% with no power on Monday.
    Props to crews from Hartselle Alabama. Big thanks for helping us
    Snow in OCtober that started the crazy time

    Ha ha it was something for sure but how many times anybody can say they had two snow runs in October :D If not for lack of power it was pretty cool to get truck through woods on the fresh snow. :turtleride: It was strange to drive with so much snow and leaves still ON. Plus dodging trees just made that challenging.
    I had to change linkage this year for steering and I was afraid I will get pull when locked on the front but it went perfect. I guess I did hit right numbers because truck handled no problems. I still need to get CB fixed but now there is power so soon.
