I am the proud owner of a Samsung Dryer. I was skeptical when we bought the Samsung washer, but it's been the best washer we've owned. Only issue is, I gotta have it delivered. The guy gave it to me for 498 since they didn't have it.

What happen to the one you got last month? Never mind. Seems like everyone appliances have been going out latley .....replaced ours recently as well.lol.

But yea nice... Samsung

Suppose to help replace the main entry door in the kids place today. They fired up the 98 yesterday that's sitting out there and to used it to drive to work....roads were bad. Started right up after reconnecting the battery. Ran so good they were going to pick the door up from Home Depot with it. LOL. I 'm just going to grab it on the way over. The bed on the 98 will most likley snap off if they attempt to strap anything down lol.

I'll just get it over there, it's prob too cold to install today, =



It 's a little windy as well.

It's pre-hung, so about 5 or 10 minutes once the existing ...I guess we'll see when I get there. Not a good day for that job.

I wish I knew who he used. I have a couple of guesses, just based on the experiences that have been shared with us by customers.

A few episodes back, Paul dropped off several transmissions to Chad to rebuild. It was literally right after I posted a message in the comments of the last trans. I'll email them now... just feel it out. Thank you guys!!!

Hell... maybe I ought to just snail mail them a price list.

The rectifier in this alternator has a crack in it. I am trying to decide if I want to replace it, or just patch/glue it..... or just pretend I didn't see it. It's been charging fine, and it's functioning as it should. I found a reman sticker on it, so I'm sure whoever did the reman just left it. I'll just need to find a source for it if I do replace it.

Hell... I found a guy on Bonanza selling some new rectifiers for 8 bucks a piece. Just bought two from him.
