Not sure if it differs from state to state but in some states if you put "Gift" they will charge tax on the market/"Blue Book" value of the vehicle. Just something to check in to.

Ty,
I'll have to check into that, otherwise i'll probably get to pay that for her... :D

Do you have any pics of the attachment points? I’m assuming this replaces the factory recovery hooks.
I’m trying to see if it’s solid enough, or has provisions to attach a tow strap.
I was able to reattach the recovery hooks alongside the bracket for the pushbar. One thing you cannot use without hacking it to bits is the plastic surround the hooks. No room for em. Would like to take photos of it but it’s currently covered in snow, ice slush salt. I’ll snap a pic of the bar when I get home here in a bit.

This past weekend was the 1st time I pulled anything larger than a 12x12 enclosed trailer with this truck.

I pulled a car trailer from SE DC with my sons 97 Lesabre on it to Easton PA.

The car was willed to him by his late grandfather and had been sitting since the end of ‘18 untouched in a climate controlled garage that belonged to the housing complex he lived in. Was dirty, battery was dead, tires almost flat. Aired up the tires, put a new battery in it, bumped the starter a few dozen times to get oil up in the motor and it fired up. The gas is crappy but with some berry mans in the tank and it idling for an hour it seems to be running fine now.

Trans temps stayed under 150, list about 3-4 mags towing but was amazed how well it did.

Perfect thanks. That would be awesome.

When do I start? :):driver:
Another one said they were quitting last night....blows my mind that we can't keep people. If peopt would stick it out, the schedule is gravy once it gets back to normal. 36hr week, 48hr week, rinse and repeat.

I got my headlight bulb in and swapped that out. Definitely different than stock headlights, but still not bad.

question is will it ever return to normal? Some people probably feel like going back to normal will never happen.

I work an office sales counter job right now but I am always chomping at the bit to get back to operating equipment/heavy equipment. I can run a forklift like a freak. Drove my first one when I was 15.

Hey @CHOO CHOO , for some fun throw a nickel on the floor and see if your forklift guys know how to pick it up. :anitoof: ;)

One of my favorite jobs was a forklift operator.
I saw one for sale a while back, and i seriously thought about grabbing it.
I could use it to help the wife with groceries, organizing the garage, pulling an engine, etc.
:fuckyea:

back in my hay day, i could totally pick up a loop laying on the ground.
pinnacle of forklift skillz
:challenge:

*starts looking for a forklift*
