    Thx for the answer!!

    Well the rest of Alberta got rain over the weekend putting all the southern fires under control, we got nada and now all albertas wild fires are northern alberta. And the one here is 3-5 times the size of the one that destroyed slave lake. (Pics you saw last weekend)

    But it's all forest land not homes so we're still not getting any media coverage on it. Which is good cause it lowers public panic. but still a BIG fire. As I said a few days ago, the river valleys in the area are the only reason this out of control fire is not classified as a "Shit Storm Apocalypse".

    And yup, we have hazard pay built into our base pay. Cause say if this fire wasn't happening at all, and it was a site industrial plant fire instead. Operations roll is to "Prevent Damage to life and property". First line of our Textbooks says it. We would get the machinery under control so the firefighters can get the fire under control. Work together.

    But i'm with project construction operations so I'm not with plant operations so if they evac non-essential, I get to go home! :D

    Haha thats what I woulda used, I have no idea about the US system.

    Hey guys let me ask you for some advice..
    I bought my truck brand new about a year ago. It has 25k miles on it. In the last month it has spent over 2 weeks at the dealership getting the 4wd actuator replaced, then the front diff actuator replaced. The problem is that the 4wd light on my dash starts blinking.. Sometimes for no reason, sometimes when I'm actually trying to put it in 4x4.
    Today on my drive to work the light started flashing again (for no reason, and it worked fine all weekend at the bc meet). Seems like there is a short in the system somewhere that just keeps messing up my 4wd system. Should I bring it in and have them fix it again (which involves me having to drive a loaner camry for an unknown amount of time, or should I call a lemon law lawyer and see if this is something that could warrant them replacing my truck? I've done ALOT of work to my truck so I would hate to have to swap everything over, but I'd also hate to continue having this problem for as long as I have the truck.
    The only way around it that I can think of would be to swap in an fj transfercase like Wyatt, Kevin, and n0rth, but that's a huge project/expense

    (the point of the fj transfercase would be to get rid of electronic 4wd switch and then have manual 4wd stick)
