It was a 12 hour day yesterday. It was mostly drive time. It was a good day. Didn't get home until 11 PM. Didn't sleep well at all last night.

No whiskey in the house either. Oh well. Just another laid back Saturday.

The mechanic hasn't started on my pickup yet. I'm somewhat annoyed.


Whats wrong with your diesel pickup that is costing you $3000, SD?

They often had Chili Cookoff's at festivals, at Casa De Fruta RV campgrounds, near Hollister, CA.
They always let the folks sample all the chili. Some tasted mighty good. Some tasted very Bad.....

A couple of yrs ago I sank about 1800 bucks into the Mustang. I swore that was it and so far it's just been a couple oil changes since, as we don't drive it as much, but now the AC is acting up and I'm contemplating getting that looked at, if it doesn't cost much, I'll have it done. I keep nagging Mrs. Chow to decide what car we're going to get, but we can't seem to nail down what we're going to get. LOL..

That's a bummer...

A few years ago i had to R&R the radiator in the 94 Ford. It's plastic so it didn't rust. It just sprung a leak & couldn't be repaired cuz it's plastic.......First time i had a plastic radiator. They didn't have a very good idea with that...

I keep thinking a mustang would be a good run about town car. In case my Toyota goes ***s up. I see Fiat is bringing out a roadster that looks exactly like a Mazda MX-5 Miata. Except it has a turbo charged engine. Is also reminds me of the Honda S2000. Starting price isn't bad. $25,000.

Then I think a Jeep Wrangler would be da bomb.

If it was home and I was going the work, I'd good with a Bulletproof Diesel aluminum radiator.

If the A/C just isn't as Cold as it was before, she might just need a charge of freon.

A couple cans of R-134 will do the trick. Maybe one can of R-134 and lube for good measure.
