It wasn't very exciting. I just went to Wal-Mart and Harbor Freight. The best part was after I left the house, but before I left town. I have a friend who lives 12 miles form town. He rents a place in the country. I knew that he was going to be working on his Dodge (imagine that!
) at his brother's house about 2 1/2 blocks from mine. I stopped by for a while to talk. Ge said that he was going to change the oil, air filter, all 4 shocks, put on two tie rod ends, and put on new brake pads.
I said "G. D. after all of that, you're just about going to have a new truck!"
He said "pretty close." I looked across the street at mine and said "you know, I think I'll just drive mine!" That got a chuckle out of him because he knew then that I was ribbing him for driving a Dodge.
