Leave the truck white. I can just see that wonderfull Gold paint getting all scratched up while on regular duties. But the container should cop a lick of stuff and some Asia construction graphics (assuming the deal is ongoing) along with the SCR stuff if budget permits. I'll look good driving that ;)

You could drop in at my place on the way, help us prep the car, and follow us over.

Sure did. About 1hr after getting home. Some moron had taken off one too many vacuum lines when he changed the carbies over. There is a vaccum operated solenoid that engages the lhf drive shaft. As suspected the rh one is always engaged and just waiting for the electric solenoid on the transfer case...

Cars aren't the only thing that use oil. I'll go out on a limb and say 99% of what we all have either has oil in it, on it and used in it's manufacturing process somewhere. Eg...sewing machines need oiling, oil baths for quenching steel, if something you own was transported at some stage...oil!! Bla...

Personally I've moved on, and then on (not by choice) and on....and then on again to what I do now. All in a relatively short time frame. There is nothing wrong with trying ...
