    Small useful for me stuff.

    Hope the best. If the shop your leaving is as hard up for people as they are this way you'll be staying for the two weeks or whatever notice you give. They may not ask you to stay but they don't want to let you go.

    I don't do snow and ice, but, the KO2 is advertised as being greatly improved for using in the snow.
    I do believe they have a "snow" rating. Not that it matters to me, and probably doesn't matter to the guy from South Carolina.
    Now, you ask how many miles do they last? Not rated but real life? Well, they don't even rate em, but in real life I don't think there is a tire that wears better. And, its well known among those who run them that they last forever. As for off road, you seriously asking ME? LOL. They are great off road. Not a mud tire. But, I didn't have any problem on Mohave Road, the back way up to Crown King, (truck was featured in a utube episode of i am jake), really nowhere Ive ever taken it. And Ive taken it a LOT of places.
    Again, not a mud tire, but for an all terrain, I don't think there is a better all around tire.

    Hope y’all have a good Monday. I’ll be putting my notice in. We see how much of a guilt trip I’ll have to listen to.

    It’s when they say what would it take for you to reconsider?

    With the new tour it sounds like you’ll have full control of the plumbing department. Witch is great, you can order and keep all the fixtures and plumbing accessories you need, and a better handle on tools and such. I’m praying it goes good for ya Bud! Sounds like a great Tour to be going too!

    Thanks Jimi!
    I prayed for help and this popped up. I’m very organized and take care of tools as best I can. When you’re poor you take care of what ya have because you might not get another one. Yes I’ll have my own plumbing shop and office. There is a mechanic that can help me with welding etc.
    All tools are supplied but I’ll pack some of mine and leave in truck in case for a short time while I see inventory.

    Morning all!

    Woo hoo! I'm on the second half of my two week stint of hell. Pre audits Mon & Tues, then customer is in Wed - Fri. Of course, this assumes we pass. If not, the real hell weeks begin.
