They completely wrote off the ambulance ride, and all but 15 dollars of the week in the hospital. Man... that is just awesome!
That is awesome, especially after the fact. Maybe you should of waited before paying down this morning ?

How is she doing?

She actually only paid about 300 today. The rest I've paid down here and there since January when the bills started rolling in.

She is doing OK overall. She plans on running a 5K in July. We'll see if she can get strong enough though. She couldn't do it now, I know that.

Thanks for asking, Brew. Much appreciated.

I'll be damned, DJ. I just noticed you're a Mod now. How long ago did you get the promotion?

Are they pretty? Nope. But functional and cheap, they are indeed. Not bad at all for 115 dollars total for all 4. This was a test fit to make sure my eyecrometer works.

hey white, had an incident tonight with the 10th gen F150...

The float on the fuel tank has been stuck at "Full" constantly for a while now....
I miscalculated a fuel up....my gut told me to go yesterday and just as I was going tonight....
I stepped on the accelerator and there was a surge and the vehicle felt like it was going to stall out and it would stutter ...
worse from stop and go....(swooshing fuel in tank that was super low).

I barely made it to the gas station that was within 3 km's....
there was a smell in the cab when I finally reached the gas station, like a light burning of something...

I fueled up and this all went away. RPM remained low for a couple km's on/off 500 rpm but now it recovered.

I'm getting my fuel pump fixed ASAP, just wondering if I maybe damaged my engine/fuel injectors ???

Never ran out of gas before....
it made me jumpy until I got to the station.

Like DJ said, that's doubtful.
