Dodge+Ford = always ready
the little metal tabs needed to be folded down to keep the leaf in place, and to help give lift to the front, since they didn't do that, the leaf has been sliding out the front and making the load transfer to the stock leafs weird, putting strain where there shouldn't be that much.

Had to drive from work to my buddy's shop with manual brakes thinking my brake booster went out which is $80. Turns out my vacuum pump pulley broke a bolt and slung the belt off. Free fix thank god lol. Also put a new fuel filter on

Went to the store, bought a fuel filter, got home, washed and waxed the truck, then changed the oil, got a bit muddy.
Now to start reading up on how to change the filter and I should be good to go for awhile

Not my truck but my other Ford my wife's Fusion
I became a thief and a liar. Lied to my wife told her the truck was screwed up I needed to borrow her car. Stole her car took it to Ford of West Memphis. She didn't suspect a THING. Poor thing she had to go to school twice walking and it rained on her way back. Had to do it today though. Was 3rd paycheck in 1 mont (when you are on a bi-weekly you know what that means). And today was the last day of $70 rebate for Michelin ($80 for Perrelli $50 for BFGoodrich and I can't remember who else). And free Roadhazard. Michelin also comes with 3yr 90,000 mile roadside assistance flat tire change (put your spare on) or if necessary tow up to 150 miles FREE. Handy if you go out of town and your wife weighs barely over 100 with not enough led in her *** to get a lug nut off.

Something made me want to carfax my truck. I'm only the 4th owner 
sold new in Michigan, then bounced around the tri-state area til i bought it. original owner had it 11 years.
Interestingly enough, it has a build date of August 94, original owner bought in November 95. Mark III must've taken a while to outfit it...
