    I had my mechanic install my 170 degree thermostat and also purchased 3 new tunes from Sean Roe today for my SCT programmer. Wasn't too happy with the KRC tunes.. we'll see how these work out. One thing is for sure, Sean Roe knows how to take care of business!! Great service so far.

    Oh.. and my mechanic DID bitch about that "fourth" bolt. $90 later, it's done.

    I keep buying mods with no truck in hand. I feel it's bringing me closer to her. Today I picked up some amps for the old girl.

    I found out the factory parts manual contains mistakes.

    My oil temp gauge could be stuck.

    It wasn't in the 10, but I almost totaled the cummins.

    I was sitting at an intersection waiting for the light to turn green and I see this semi turning my way. He tried to make the turn wide. At this point I am thinking there is no way he is gonna make this turn. I look in the rearview mirror and no one is behind me. So the trailer is getting closer and closer to running over the top of the hood. I already had the hand on the shifter. Slammed it into reverse and he missed me by about a foot! I almost took the ten on this trip. If someone was behind me it would have been over.
