I'm leaning towards that too. Hence the acronym KISS. Keep It Simple Stupid. LOL. Now if I were on the level of [MENTION=76842]Carcrazygts2[/MENTION] or [MENTION=99584]ibd2328[/MENTION], it'd be getting crazy round here.

Drama aside, - made him a list of supplies for Home Depot and directed him to search and learn drywall repair on the internet. Then we'll be good... this time.
Told my kid she should broom'em, but that's about it , I won't force these things anymore. Has a good future ahead of her career wise, -sometimes curiosity has me wondering lol...but honestly and thankfully, not all that concerned. Kids!

Need some advice here, I'm big on fixing anything on my truck myself and 9/10 I'm able to, thankfully I've not had to do any real motor work besides swapping old for new parts... Came across this reman engine for my truck and the company claims this about it.. At a price of 3k for the motor that would be pure plug and play. My question is, is it worth the price or would it be cheaper to rebuild my current motor with all high end parts, if i take it out i only want to put the top of the line parts in it. Thanks!
