Dang winter just won't let go. Woke up to about 4 inches and counting of the white stuff again. I thought it was suppose to hit farther south but it had to get me again. Now I'm stuck for a couple days. Won't be able to get into the garage either, to dang cold.

 

Yesterday afternoon.

 

 

Woke up this morning to this.

Marc, just so you know, from Arizona, it looks beautiful!  Enjoy!

😄 I bet it does. Look at what you're missing out on. 😉  😬

Think of it this way: you missed all the crazy Phoenix Open/Super Bowl traffic

 

So you have that going for you........which is nice

I know how Marc feels, it was 30 degrees here this morning. 
It took me a whole damn minute to defrost the windshield.

I can feel everyone's pity for me. I'll take it. 😄👍 I know, I did it to myself.

Well, I took some advice from here, thanks Jim, and I posted the gold truck on the Phoenix craigslist 2 days ago. I got a response within an hour or so of posting it from 2 guys. I have now sold the truck and it's heading back to Arizona again. I guess it never wanted to leave and wants the warm climate. I don't blame it, I miss it myself. The truck will be relocating to Anthem. Not sure when as his check will clear before we work on shipping it doen there. I was gong to drive it down for him but the wife is having some health issues we're dealing with so I can't leave anytime soon. I was hoping that I would be able to stay for a few days and maybe visit with some of you all. Guess that will have to wait now too. Thanks for the advise.

Got some work done on the new truck when it's been nice out. Put a Mishimoto trans cooler on it. My other truck taught me a lesson on that one so I'm being proactive with it before I hook a trailer onto it. Also put an S&B cold air intake on it in place of the stock restrictive one. Boy does it suck now! Bought a tuner as well so now it doesn't have that stupid V8 to V4 downgrade at cruising speeds. It's an all time V8 now and runs much better. I decided it needed some purple as well and added some to it in case I ever pull a purple car with it someday. Also got the white letters put on the outside as I like the white letter look better then black walls. I think I'm going to get a muffler and tailpipes for it and then I'll have to hold off with other mods for a while.

 

New stripe on the side.

 

 

White letters now on the correct side of the wheels. I will make them more white when it gets warmer out. I was going to buy new wheels and tires but that won't happen for a while as life is getting in the way again. Gotta spend the money where it needs to go instead of where I want it to go.

 

 

S&B intake and I added purple see-thru tint to the cover.

 

 

 

Almost forgot, I got a new plate for it too.
