*jumps for joy* Ins finally came back with a number we can accept. Still lower than we wanted for the truck BUT we need the money...Just because the trucking stops does NOT mean the bills do... Sadly... 
Also we are getting into a 2007 M2 112 (class 8 engine and trans) 60/40 split with the owner till we get on out feet then we can switch to a 90/10 split till we pay it off. If we decide the truck is not worth it we keep looking
Oh and it is already at Load 1 # 3193 i believe.
Guido Hope they get you fixed up!!

good job. like I always say--everything works out. maybe not how we expect or want, but it always works out. I heard you also get extra credit for keeping your head on straight.

It is squirming bad like it did when the Michelins were on it a few years ago. It was perfect before the accident, and now, even with new drives on, is squirmy. The alignment was way out, and they did good, and it has never ran down the road as smooth as it does now. it just is squirmy, and they admitted there is something wrong.. Even Mr. Stone, the founder of this place, and his son, were out there....Mr.Stone is 93 years old right now and still sharp as a tack, even cruising around in his scooter.I have given up on it both mentally and financially. The high note of the day was talking with Rocketman, and him getting me laughing talking about the strip bar with midget strippers.....or the comment Ray made to me of selling my Alpha-male body for money....lol...yea, than I'd really go broke!

Hard to believe it's been 13yrs. Still feels like it was last week when I was on a college campus watching it live when the 2nd plane hit. That moment of realization that this was no longer just an accident, but an attack....can't find the right words to describe that.

A day I will never forget, one that has changed the face of this country, how that senseless act has robbed us so much of our freedom in so many ways.
Today is a hard day for most Americans. We lost a lot 13 years ago. Our lives were forever changed. And the lives of 2,977 innocent people were extinguished that day.
But I choose to allow my thoughts of that day to focus on United Flight 93. To those Americans who, knowing full well their chances to live were dim, still summed up the courage to take those friggin' terrorists down without allowing them to hit their target. "Let's Roll" will forever be hallowed words to me.
So to the men and women on that flight, and to our country and its citizens, and most especially to the men and women in our Armed Forces (and their families)....
I salute you and thank you.
