Wow. So how did you leave it with him. What was his plan? Seems he didn't realize it was out of gas at that point.
 
Left Millis at 11 pm last night and drove the 70 to Richmond, VA. Made it fine with no sleep. 9 hours solid driving. Transaction was smooth and took place at the airport. New owner dropped me off at the terminal and I got in line for a ticket. 4 minutes later he calls me to say the truck has broken down on the airport exit road.

I get out of line, catch a cab, have the cabbie wait for me as I furiously pump, tighten, crack, prime and cry. I had to get back in the cab and leave him on the side of the road to catch my plane.

Realized in the air that I drove 5 hours straight on one tank. He ran out of diesel 1 mile from the airport. I was s***ting myself that I'd have a dead truck in VA.

Phew! Now time to sleep....


John- you have to write a book. If only we all could have been flies on the wall during this journey.
 
Has anyone figured out how to cross Toyota part numbers with Napaonline?

Sometimes I can find what I want by drilling down, but getting a part # from toyodiy and then cross referencing would be nice.

I know I'm retarded, but is that my only problem?
 
Can't go wrong with a lab. Logan is the best dog I have ever had. Are you going English or American?

We get together with a couple other lab owners in the area to run them and two just had a litter and are about 4 weeks old. Just little fir balls.
 
Yep, it was out of gas. Thank god! Was fearing the worst!

Flight home sucked. had a layover in NYC but we got held for an hour on the ground due to traffic in Boston. Guy next to me gets a call on his cell as soon as we sat down from his wife. She told him she wants a divorce and she's done being a mom and doesn't want to work anymore. F-ing insane scene. EVERYONE on the plane was looking back at us and there were only 2 seats on our side of the aisle. I NEVER get embarrassed or uncomfortable about anything but this one did me in. Longest 1 hour flight of my life.

I haven't slept since Weds nite which was only 4 hours. I started to laugh cuz I was so exhausted and the situation was so surreal.

Still on the Pig hunt! BJ40 is going away August 12th

Oh I should mention that a 9 hour drive in the 70 was a friggin blast and I started to regret my decision by the time I hit Philly.

Yup, we have a 10 year old Lab/Golden mix who is just fantastic. We had 2 dogs briefly but our first dog died at 4. :( We are looking forward to another furry family member.

He'll be coming home when we start vacation in a few weeks. :) Very sweet pup, the laziest one of his litter. :) Met both mom and dad and had a good kennel visit. :)
 
Picked up a trail cover off a guy on NEOW for $50. I know I know it was for a Jeep. I was going to modify it but it seems to fit half way decent.
