Few half throttle accelerations a tank, maybe 3 just depends on where I get on the interstate at. I never do OD to second pulls or really any WOT at a roll. I mean I do sometimes and if I'm in OD I always turn off overdrive first. My driving depends on how stupid the people around me are driving and if I have to (or want to) get around them on the interstate lol

Im not sure I'd put a blower on a truck with 180k unless I already had another engine build in the works..
I'm to the floor every time I leave sonewhere so with me driving a blown 180k truck it would last about 400 miles lol

I can Imagine, yea just try getting them to share lol. Just one Grandson so far lol. This will be fun watching. He wants a rope to tow my truck, - not sure how I'm suppose to take that?

Oh yea, I paid cash for mine...err his

Think it needs a new alternator, battery keeps going dead. Hmmm, it is 12 volt

Lol . Well Red posted a wheel coming off. I thought you would show what it looks like when the entire axle goes.

Well the wife sees I'm a bit off put about getting rid of the other one and were already talking about how to keep both. I'm not sure that's what I'll do because I'm a man and I have a family to support at the end of the day, but it sure would be nice. I love my 10th gem.
