So, that's what you do to start the day in California? A little breakfast "herb"?

Yesterday I checked out a shop that does high end diesel work in the Fresno area. If it works out OK the guy is coming up with a under mounted oil cooler that looks promising. He does a lot of bullet proofing 6.0's and being so close to SMB is a nice feature for those wanting to upgrade. Supposed to be a week turn around and it's right by the airport.
I was actually joking about you test driving Doug's rig.

Sorry to hear about another gremlin in your SMB. I think you need to perform an exorcism on your rig and get rid of the last of those pesky critters.
Yeah, got one more minor issue but it can wait. Just happy to be fully back on the road and it ran fantastic. Still a little trigger shy though. Time heals wounds I hope. But hey, I got a sat phone.

BTW I still say it's my buddies wife sticking needles in a van voodoo doll.

Congrats on your new baby. I see the umbilical cord is still attached. Do you get to cut it?

I just noticed the two large LED light bars. Very nice.
