    There's a few Ram companies in town. Team Ramco is a transmission company that does really good work. If you have any kind of transmission, they can do it. They even have a guy that does those (pos) Nissan CVT's.

    I use to grill/smoke/q all my meals for the week on Sundays. It's too hot to eat much of a lunch during summer. I may go back to doing it again when it cools down.

    I don't take a lunch either, but I take a break or two and do the grab and go routine also. Winter is more grab and go and less breaks. Summer is stop, drink a water or 2. I usually do those Belvida crackers in the morning, a banana about 4 hours later then an apple and a handful of unsalted mixed nuts on the way back to the office.

    Never doubted ya Sunshine. ;)

    another vote for dog school here. :thumbsup:

    Nice score. I've shipped a literal shit ton of those ... they're practically indestructible. :cool:

    New truckbed toolbox has a few ammo cans in it, two have tools, 1 can STD and 1 can METRIC. The larger third can has an authentic Iowa Farmer logging chain in it ... Kristi's old man gave the chain to me 25+ years ago. Nothing beats the real deal...

    Ya'll know I gotta like that. :)

    One of the best lessons I ever learned from a zero ... Major I worked for at the AFRCC circa 1987 taught me to pack a healthy lunch from home and not waste my money buying fast food or quick mart garbage. Good officer that one. :)

    This made me think of those crazy Woodcocks we'd hunt up occassionally when quail hunting on Great Grandma Anderson's place in Amelia. Darn birds always surprised the bejesus outta me. Hard little boogers to wingshoot too. Hadn't thought of them for probably 40 years. Good memories...thanks Dad, RIP. :pray:

    EDIT: I don't recall ever getting shit on by one...funny clip. :laugh:

    Good Morning Eastcoasters :wave:

    I'm working off a new theory ... if staying up 'til 11PM results in being wide awake by 2:30AM, then seems a reasonable assumption that if I stay up 'til 2:30AM, I should sleep 'til 6AM...any bets on it working?

    You're so screwed...

    Morning.

    Have a Prius with a undiagnoseable condition.
    Had codes for insulation failure. That can be diagnosed. The issue is it has an after market battery in it.
    Told the customer it was a very bad idea to do that. Well first one lasted a week. This one a year.
    So to make a long story short their ain’t no way I’m pulling that battery pack apart and doing any diag.
    So a replacement batt needs to be installed. If it don’t start. Then I still can’t diag it cause it’s a sealed unit and I have to be in the battery to check things. Have no idea what they could have done in them packs I don’t know about.
    Could need a transmission.
    Could need hi voltage cables.
    Could just be the smart module inside the pack.
    Would have been so much easier with factory parts but ol cheepo wanted to save a few hundred bucks..

    I’m really looking forward to not dealing with shit like this..
