oh man you have no idea. i'm so pissed off. when my gf went on her break and started to text me, i let her have it. yea it was my idiocy for just not stopping and calling it even.

but anyways my gf said "take my bank card and go get the paint if you need it" that just set me off... to a never before reached level of anger.

man, my gut won't hold down food. the thought of my bumper(chrome), stock light, and the paint.... ugggh.

none the less... she knows how much i hate being lied to.

when i met her i showed her a picture of my 1967 chev impala (my greatgrandfather's car) that i own while in my 2010 screw....

i told her "sexy car eh? just remember, if you make me decide it's you or the car or truck.... know i'll pick them. so don't ever go there with me."

if one of my kids(when i have them) wrecked my truck, i'd only care about their safety first.

Have you added more transmission fluid? My 98 4.6L 5spd had a hydraulic clutch system. It used a little fluid sometimes. I'd have to top off the fluid then bleed the system. I forget how to bleed the system now, but I'm sure somebody else knows.

I love it..I get so many people pointing at my truck when I drive by..I dont know if it's because people think its a Raptor or just because its a red lifted truck...haha. Either way I dont mind. It is holding up real well too. I cant put lights behind my grille but thats the only downfall I guess..I am going to be getting rid of my bullbar and getting a smittybilt light bar and put 4 KC 130W Daylighters and then convert them to HID in the next 2 weeks.

That will look sweet I want some type of bar, brush guard, but I don't want it to look gaudy because I have a regular cab.
