Funny you say that. I did that for a little while right out of high school for a summer job and pretty much decided that wasn't for me at all. Shingles sucked but tin hurt like hell.

Got back from my work trip, replaced the cop and plug (under warranty so I wasn't wasting money) that fixed the misfire right away, score! Then the light came back on, the pending emissions code became an actual code. So upon some inspection found an egr hose was disintegrating from the inside out so replaced that and reset the light, so far so good! Also my pcv valve/hose came in the mail so I'll get that hooked up tomorrow. Thanks again for the help everyone!

Dudes.... hope everyone is doing well. Everything over here was going fine until I learned that this week is damn daylight savings weekend. ****.

Anyway, today I had a guy at work laser me this box for my two 6.5" subs. Went to put it in, and I still need to raise the rear seat up.... so, I guess I'll go get some longer bolts now.... LOL

It's a powerful little bugger. I'm sure you've got one with a 12hp Briggs on it? LOL
13 hp honda w/CAT pump. Put together by Porter Cable. They don't make these anymore...not this big or w/CAT pump. I have permanent scars from that thing lol. I have a little briggs as well.

Right, we all evolve into something. Allthough well intended, helping others can be both a blessing and curse.

We haven't made out in awhile now. Not into her as much and I think she's getting tired of me iduno. She's putting more into the relationship than I am at this point. I'm just not feeling it as much, wish I was, she's a great person.

We had a bad windstorm a couple days ago that blew down two 35' trees in the yard. A big pine and some sort of shi-fuc tree. She came over and loaded up the trailer as I cut and helped stack. It's a complete flip flop. I know she was dreaming of IKEA the whole time...jk lol Anyway, she's trying, but I can't duck how I feel. Know what I'm saying, sort of sucks.

I can totally relate. My GF wants me to move up with her. I want to be with her, sure, but I'm not a Fairbanks type person. lol. She already went and got a place with a garage for me to work on things, and will take me out to the Base auto craft shop when ever I want to go there. I just wish I could get more into this, than I am. Like you, I'm in a quandary, wondering what to do. I'm getting too old for this chit. lol

Your getting forced into a decision, -sounds like she made it for you lol. Well, guess it wouldn't hurt to sample, if you weren't sacrificing anything to do so.

All depends I guess, are all the farmers daughters taken in your area? Ahh, we are in the wrong age group for that I guess...all the good ones won't want us lol.....drats!
