Oh and I am an atheist so I got some big brownie points for being good boy.
Going thru the shed to sort out all the old crap and found an air pump with pressure gauge from when I had air suspension on one of the Harley's I had, will work well on the airbags.
Getting out for a wheel in the ute yesterday without major damage. First solid 4wd trip without major damage since the high country last October ,
The best thing is how good the treps are with the modified tread pattern, the amount of sideways traction has improved 10 fold. So impressed that my next set of treps will be modified before they are fitted to rims
Today has been an excellent day so far!
First thing was I took my Patrol to Nissan for a 50,000Km service. This car is the first second hand car I have bought in a lot of years and it bothered me there was no warranty in case I had overlooked something when I inspected it before handing over the $$$
When I was picking the car up after the service, we were discussing warranty matters in general with the Service Manager when he sais, "you don't have to worry, your car has the Nissan Extended Warranty"!
It came out that the previous owner had purchased the Nissan Extra Time warranty so I have a new-car warranty till mid-May 2015!
Can't beat that. I hope there isn't a clause in the fine print saying it's non-transferrable to a new owner
Anyhow, when we left Nissan, I dropped into BCF to try to bargain them down on a Waeco CFX40 and they wouldn't really budge down to what I have seen online. The guy then showed me an Engel MR40F (the one with the plastic casing) and gave a good discount on it for me as well as throwing in the insulated cover.
thinking about the weekend - moving my fuel manger, installing my catch can, adding a Strike phone cradle and a 7bd antenna and seeing what else I can do to get stuff out of the back of the troll and into position
Got up early this mornin quick trip down to the coast for a surf got the scar from the hernia op in some salt water figured it would do some good. Then went up to the surf club an had a big pile of bacon an eggs to keep the colesterol up. Was gettin a tad low. Back home by 11 am an then had a nice sleep before the missus gets home from work. Boy what a life he he .
[/SIGPIC]The old girl like me well past the use by date
Finally got a phone call from the insurance Co.thats not bad 3 times in 20 years
and only as I rang yesterday. Seems my case manager is of the some thought
as me as this has taken far to long to sort out. He is going to follow it through and get back to me
early next week. Hey Its all I've got I'm clutching straws here, my last horar so to speak.
Fingers crossed
