    Really? I never saw it when Seth had it. I'mma keep an eye out for it now!


    Thanks! I gotta get an alignment (since I took the top plate spacer out), get the TPMS sensors switched, and get the wheels balanced. All should be good after that! It has a pretty gnarly bounce/rascally rabbit handling. The steering wheel shakes going down the road haha. :facepalm:

    And on top of that I need to figure out this damn vibration. Everything I check doesn't seem to solve it. :rant:

    Nice! I'm jealous. See how long the wait is for some standards. I don't need a kickout/ups. Prerunner isn't running on anything tough enough. :(

    I checked the calfire blog yesterday and it said 45% contained yesterday morning, so hopefully they saved those horse structures

    Thanks for asking!

    I stayed up all night waiting for a call but all I got were texts saying that they would not allow anyone in yet. A horse ranch was damaged but no horses killed. My sister in law and her daughter's family were waiting at the blocked area to be allowed in but they reassured them that the horses were okay (the stables were fine). The fire is 60% contained as of yesterday and they allowed some roads opened last evening to allow residents to go back.

    It should be completely out by Friday.

    I swear, I've always believed that firemen were never quite honored as much as they should be. Very thankful to them. The community was supplying food, water and snacks that were brought to them since they stayed on the mountain for over 24 hours straight.

    But the bad news is, while there were up on the mountain saving the lives of animals, people's properties and livelihoods, some jerk decided it was the right time to break into the fires stations and steal stuff from the firemen's lockers as well as equipment. One fireman had his wedding ring and watch stolen.

    Horrible.

    The good news is, the community is pitching in to replace those lost items. :)

    Good to hear the horses and structures seem to be doing ok over in Clayton. Sad to hear about the station burglary though. Times like these bring out the best and, unfortunately, the worst in folks.

    Good luck on the rescue dog Greg! He looks pretty awesome.

    Good for you, Greg and even better for the GSD. Rescues do good for everyone. :)

    There are a few occasions I'd be OK with someone getting the shit kicked out of them. This would be one. Pretty low on the scale of burglars.
