Yesterday, I did nothing. I had to work Saturday, so I decided to relax....

The tree isn't up yet, but I did put lights on the house.... which I was planning on not doing this year. My kids got all teared up when I told them I wasn't going to.... so I did it.

He's offline now, LOL.... finally figured out there's no FPM on a 10th gen.



EDIT: Damn, it is starting to get ugly here:

There are plenty of aftermarket fuel control modules that can be added so he has one to fix.

Isn't this just "winter" in Utah? It's funny how many times after being asked where I was from people would came back with comments about the hard Michigan winters. Michigan has nothing on the northeast and northwest when it comes to winter. The snow can fall in Northern Michigan but we don't have the mountains where the wind keeps the snow coming long after it's finished falling.

Yes, it's normal as far as snow. I've explained this before on here, but maybe you haven't heard. Utah drivers SUCK on the first snowstorm. Absolutely pitiful. If we go a week without snow, well... the reset button gets pushed in the time frame, and they have to learn how to drive in snow again. If you look at my pic, there is an accident being cleaned up there. Yesterday a guy slid off that canyon and his truck rolled 200 feet and killed him. So yeah, it's ugly.

This is the first I've seen this from you. It's surprising. It's not like Utah is Florida where they hardly ever see snow or ice. In 78 I drove home from Seattle for Christmas leave. I went south to Portland to come east on 84 along the Columbia River. The weather was nasty and around The Dalles I caught a wind that blew the car from the right lane to the shoulder of the left lane. That was a wake up call. I'd never experienced anything like that before and I'm not embarrassed to say it scared the #### out of me. 40 years later and I still haven't forgotten. How can anyone forget in a week?

Wow. Emergency vehicles, bad weather and all through the video there are people speeding by, and like the idiot that hit the cop, some aren't even getting over to the left lane. If that's what you're referring to about what people forget in a week I'm not sure it's about driving so much as it's about *******s.

AK, will the 40 gallon fuel tanks for the HD's of the same 10th gen fit on an F150?
