    Alright, so I was sitting on the throne and remembered it :rofl:

    Say I put in 6%, the company puts in 8%. There's a certain ratio of this up to a limit when I bump mine higher. I know I put it at max.

    401K program is just about the best thing for employee saving, contribute until it hurts now and watch it compound over the years. :)

    I'm really curious how the repairs hold up as well.

    We used a needle scaler and wire brush on the frame along with Rustoleumn rusty metal primer & black top coat. I'm also going to Fluid Film the inside of the rocker panels and frame and Cosmoline the outside of the rocker panels.

    We will be able to keep an eye on everything going forward, should be an interesting test of products & methods.

    There is a Sheetz 1/2 mile from my work, I buy a lot of diesel there. Right now it's fifty cents cheaper than anywhere near my house or along the way. Don't buy much gas there, can get it cheaper along the way.

    I do go in Sheetz every now and then and get a drink.

    There is a bathroom on my coworkers side, I actually took a couple hours one day last week and cleaned it. I was ashamed to go in there and drop the kids off it was so nasty. I was also ashamed to take a before picture :puke:

    That is awesome you and your wife did that.

    I don't have a problem tipping well, if the service is well.

    It erks me when they bring my food and don't come back to refill my drink. That is when I need it filled :facepalm:

    The guys that did my leafs said they use Wool Wax instead of FF. Coats and lasts longer. YMMV..

    I also like to tip well. When we get tax returns, we go somewhere nice and I tip the waitress a couple hundred dollars.
    Did you have to use a pressure washer?

    I didnt tip once because i told gal quit filling my glass with ice. Id get 2 drinks of tea and was empty. The pitcher was cold it didnt need ice in my glass. I took out half and said no more ice. And next time she came back she filled it with ice again. I left the table with a plate of ice and cup was full over the top. I maybe had 1 actual glass of tea. And Bout 6 glasses of ice:rolleyes::rolleyes:
