    Jake got a question for u on the pioneer stereos. do u have that link u posted a while back on them? cause im wondering what the difference is between the AVH-BH1500, 2500, and the 5500. i know the 5500 is the top of the line but dont think since how much it is ill be getting that for christmas. thats why i was wondering if the 1500 and 2500 does the same thing but dont have all the bells and whistles like the 5500 has and they r a little cheaper. but really would like to have the 5500.

    I'll be moving 2,000 miles this summer, so my mods have shifted from what i'd like in my truck to what needs to done to make sure that the 2,000 miles (most likely non stop driving, except for food/fuel) is as easy as possible on my baby.

    So i'm planning on adding a trans cooler (bypassing stock cooler in the bottom of the radiator), getting a trans flush, putting jumpers LED's in the map lights (red) and a white one in the main cab light, and last (but not last time wise) are some OMD springs, and some new shocks.

    I'm not sure if it was a fluke or what, but i cleaned it up before we went on our trip and i've kept a eye on it, no more leaking, i took it out when we went duck hunting the other day and and ran through some shallow whoops (just enough to cycle the suspension) and flexed it out on a ditch.

    Haven't seen anymore shock oil on the outside, but I contacted Angel about it and he said if i have any more issues we'll get it sorted out.

    Nothing much, trying to decide if i want ice cream and apple pie before bed, and i'm watching as much TV as possible before school starts, You? it's pretty late in your part of the hemisphere.

    Haha I just threw some ramen in the mircrowave.

    Gonna eat and probably go to bed watching some Netflix.

    Yeah, it's 3:00 a.m, but I work from 2:45 to midnight so I usually stay up until about 4:00.

    I've never had ramen, it any good? I had french toast for supper, since it's a nice soft food, and had a doughnut for lunch.

    I'm gonna finish this H5-0, have my pie, then off to bed i go.

    I've had a really goofy schedule since my surgery, go to bed at 2:00, don't get up till 12:00-14:00.

    It's good for a quick meal. Terrible nutrition though haha high sodium.

    Haha pretty much my plan as well.

    You and I are about on the same sleep schedule right now. In about a month I'll be working 20:45-08:00 though. Yay.... :rolleyes:

    Hmmm, i'll have to try one sometime.

    I prefer working the odd schedules as long as it's a job i like, to bad nobody has a need for a 24 hour body shop.

    Haha it's worth it for like $0.20 a piece.

    I don't like the current shift because after I get off work everything is closed... So if I'm low on food I'm kind of stuck with what I've got.

    Working midnight shift isn't bad because you get to go home as everybody is going to work. Feels good :D

    Don't like the day shift because then all of the office workers and weekday workers are there, so it's busier. I usually work 6 days on and 3 days off too, so that gets confusing haha

    Thanks, it ain't much, but i'm proud of her.
    Silver is the only color i like, white is OK, but it's to much on a DC, and black is good on the extra cabs, but, again it's to much on the DC, blue it shows any imperfection.
