    Hi Tom, ask Duane if he can buy the car for you now that he is rich:confused:... Scams are running rampant. Congrats on the Missus new car. Best of luck with it.

    I've never seen data to support the claim, but I've heard the #1 "tire dealer" in the US is Ford dealers across the nation.

    West Chester PA. 50/50 American iron and imports, pretty good mix. A few true exotica like McLarens etc. A Mustang that sounded like it had 4 digit HP under the hood. Pretty much everything in between.
    We're in that club too. The appointments drop off over time, but that voice is always whispering.
    Ugh. After our last HD crash I set up batch jobs to copy everything we care about to a network drive once a week. Saved my bacon once already.
    Duane I believe we're distantly related!

    The caller seemed slightly pushy, he may not wait for events to happen. You can send the funds by Western Union while we're waiting though.

    Dave, my data was OK it was a failure in the OS that we could not fix. A recovery disc may have helped. I have one now. LOL

    Next county over has a wildlands fire that started a couple days ago, up to almost 31,000 acres. Mostly grass and brush.

    Morning all:
    Good to hear you won't be effected by the fire Duane, I'm surrounded by woods and have a buffer zone between the house and the garage I built just in case.
    It's been a good year here to pick nightcrawlers, it rains almost every day! :(
    Got caught up on trimming yesterday and the day before, went through 5 tanks of gas in the Stihl. That's a lot of weed whacking and I was soaking wet both days and a dirty mess! :(

    Looks like it paid to shop around Tom, think we have all been through that. Wonder how the dealer that is 2k above the price you got even stays in business, guess some people don't worry about paying an extra 2k for a vehicle! :notsure:
