New England B.S. Thread

I won 2 of them. Problem is, you can't use them together and shipping on anything in their store is $10 minimum

I might pick up some little things from their store.

 

It sure did

 

Lol that sucks . I haven't check it out yet just a quick look at my email .

 

I can't really complain but if I could combine them, I'd pick up one of their range bags. I'll likely spend the $10 prizes separately on a hat and a few coozies.

 

I just drove through marble sized hail in portsmouth. It was nuts. I hid under a tree trill it was over cuz i though my windshield was going to shatter.

 

It's crazy how loud that sort of thing is from inside the truck.

 

I couldnt even hear myself think.

 

Lol.
I got stuck in a hailstorm in an '86 Dodge full size when I was working for a farmer in high school. Only lasted about 10 minutes, but I was convinced that I'd go deaf before it finished. Those old trucks have zero sound deadening material in the roof; my '84's the same way. But at least I wouldn't have to worry about it getting dented.

 

Thats what i was worried about. Thats why i pulled under a tree. This lasted about 6 minutes.

 

heading down to new mexico tomorrow with my family to see my cousin's wedding, I cant wait

 

Driving or flying?

 

Just put those Weathertech no-drill mud flaps on the Ferd. They make a nice product. Fits well, looks factory and went on in about 5 minutes.

 

flying, it would take too long to get down there, and we get the rental car down there so Im going to beat on it lol

 

I jumped a rental truck while prerunning in Bonaire. Kinda ripped off the exhaust and snapped a leaf hanger off. Lol

 

Pretty good local beer.

 

Hahahaha

 

I have to run by the dealer. All my mounting pins have fallen out of my left rear flap but one. I want to keep the flaps as long as I can

 

Has anyone ever had an issue with HP. Short story, I bought a new laptop for house (HP Envy) and after a month started to have issues with the touch screen and bluetooth. The laptop was sent out and returned back to me with touch screen fixed but bluetooth was still an issue. Many many many hours on phone with them and they decided to change the wireless/bluetooth card. Guy shows up does the work and nope still an issue. I request a new laptop and they agree, Yay. Every spec sheet they sent me for the new one was a lesser quality in reguards to hardware and memory. They finally get it right or so I thought, I had a 6 cell battery in mine and the replacement came with a 4 cell. I have contacted them and we are going back and forth. I want what I paid for nothing more nothing less. She says by agreeing and accepting the spec sheet it is a lawful contract. I am waiting on a supervisor to call me now about this BS that the DB pulled

 

Oh yeah, morning all

 

When I worked as a service writer for a garage up in Augusta we used to service all of Enterprise's rental vehicles. They brought an F150 down to us one time complaining that the tires needed to be balanced because they'd sent it out on a rental who'd brought it back complaining that it was pulling to one side and shaking so bad they thought they were going to go off the road.

We got it up on the lift and took the wheels off, and the insides of the wheels are absolutely caked with dried clay/mud. So I had the tech take them outside and knock most of the dirt out with a rubber deadblow hammer, hose the wheels off, and check the balance (all of them were fine). The techs bolted the wheels back on, dropped the truck down, and torqued them.
On a hunch, I had them lift the truck back up, this time high enough for us to walk underneath it.
The driveshaft was beat all to hell, full of dents and with a pretty decent bend in it (which explained all of the shaking). Plus the rear diff seal was leaking pretty good, and the entire undercarriage had mud caked everywhere. The oil pan was covered with dings and scrapes, the lower control arms were covered in rock rash, and the transfer case had a really good impact mark where they'd clearly thumped a piece of granite into it. They also managed to bend the passenger outer tie rod about 15 degrees, which explained the hard pull to one side.
Called Enterprise up and told them that they should send their claims guy down to have him take a look, because they were going to want to go after whoever had rented the truck last. They took a crap ton of pictures, had us document everything we could find, and bought us all pizza. Turns out the guy who'd rented it hadn't bought the insurance, so it was all going to be out of his pocket.



Oh, also, Good morning
