@ beno,
Another small grievance with the new company's policy, detrimental to both of us.
Mailing itemized receipts is perfectly normal and appreciated in business, I send and receive, daily, BUT to business addresses, NOT to residences, where mail is free game and with exponential implications.
Now, I realize your single (and I'm still subscribing to the "local fare" thread you've delayed updating), but for those of us living in marital bliss, there's a simple formula that we adhere to that covers just about all aspects of husbandry (oh what I'd give if it were a true equation for my version of marital bliss) , however unfair, especially when it comes to expendable cash.
"Good for him x 3 = Good for her"
So, if an expenditure that's good for me is $100, then there's a forthcoming expenditure that's good for her of $300, that all falls well within this unwritten code of partiality.
Even though the inherent quality of the mechanical art that is mine makes perfect sense, twenty more pairs of shoes makes little, considering she's only two feet anyway. They don't increase her capability, (she's smoking hot, especially with no shoes, and walks just fine in any or none), reliability, or dependability, as a fresh set of Birf's might mine.
So, if you'd please note to NOT MAIL itemized invoices to me, we both stand to gain. I no more saw the opened envelope on the counter and the smoking computer out and opened to one of many full shopping bags that are now cutting into the PP80 fund.
All for humor.

just a comment from someone who did get that call a while ago, believe me, you don't really want to get it

scottryana said:Robbie says he doesn't travel anymore, and I dont really blame him. And yes his price was very good. It was just going to cost be $800 each way to ship the LX. It's not completely off my radar but I am still on the fence about doing a turbo and if I do that, that shop will do some head work and the HG.
devildogcruiser25 said:Chris, every time I see there is a new post in your thread I think to myself "what has he done now"?
devildogcruiser25 said:Cryo treatment for birfs? Whoda thunk?!
devildogcruiser25 said:It's so fun to read about and see the progress. It's very fun to watch you spend your **HARD EARNED** money, you sure know how to do it right!
devildogcruiser25 said:As for me, I keep waiting
devildogcruiser25 said:I would buy lots of shoes (for the wifey)

Stop waiting.
You don't wait on the trail for the boulder to move out of the way, you lock it in 4L and attempt to go over it.
If unsuccessful, you try a different line, approach, or angle.
Life's no different.
He's going to be doing a little traveling soon. Prepping to run a chase truck through the Baja in a couple of weeks, then............
If you get serious about shipping, hit Riverrunner up. With enough advance notice, bet he could find a reasonable rate, though $800 doesn't really sound that bad, from a freight charge perspective, considering airfare and fuel cost if ferrying yourself.
Watching the turbo developments, but only as a spectator and student. The experiences y'all discuss are well above my comprehension level, but find it interesting.
Being the not-so-proud owner of an 04' 6.0L Power Smoke F-350, three things scare me. Head Gaskets, EGR/EGC, and Turbo's, and the reason for the proactive replacement on the 1FZ by a known professional.
450k on the 6.0L (known POS) but with 432 miles on the odometer, the cab was pulled to swap HGs. It's been all downhill from there.
Before the warranty ran out, had (4) HG replacements, (3) Head swaps (so three more HGs), countless premature EGR valves, (3) EGCs, and (1) turbo.
Since then, swapped for an 05 6.0L with 93k (melted the original) that's had heads reworked, ARP studs, new turbo, EGR delete, EGC delete, and STILL through a rod through the side of the "bulletproof" block after a HP oil pump replacement.
Found a insurance fraud 6.0L that had been burned out, and swapped the entire top end earlier this year, so should be good to go, this time. Hahahahaha.
Why have I not just bought a new one, you ask?
Said five years ago, the next one ton truck I bought would be a diesel Toyota.
I'm still waiting.
