This should be fun.

how long will you be gone?

Week or so. Two weeks at the most.

Sounds like the best business plan ever.

Got an issue at work? Deploy the Bob.

had the house treated for termites

got back from koh on saturday and found some damage in the house, guess they came in through the kitchen wall

treatment is supposed to last for 10 years, so should be good for awhile now

... Traded the GMC in last night. Well, signed all the paperwork.. gotta pull my bumper and toolbox off this week while they fix a couple things and put new tires on the other truck.

Downsizing? Or upgrading?

Yes.


It's a 2012 Ram 1500 4x4 5.7L Hemi Big Horn edition with almost every option available on it. It also only has 65k, and it's stock / unmolested. It's rated to pull almost as much as my huge gas sucking 2500hd that rides like a freight train. But this truck gets 16 city and 22 highway, and rides like a Cadillac. However, besides all that.. the main and really only reason I even went looking was my interest rate. When I bought the GMC a little over 2 years ago, my credit was still severely suffering from my fore-closer which resulted in a very high interest rate. All said and done I'm get a much new truck with less miles for the same price I was paying for the GMC, difference is instead of my money going to a ton of interest, it's going towards a truck that will last me 10-15+ years. I cut my interest rate more then half last night. :)

That's awesome Avis.

Very cool, man. Good for you.

On an unrelated "I just..." note, I just got back from TM doing some AIST / Prerunning stuff with Jerry and Julie Sparks in my old buggy. I love that buggy, but it was so much fun to watch them go "it can do that?!?!" We kept running LT in 10 minutes and even took time to spot people through White Line each time through. Man I love wheeling at TM. Just a special place for me. Also, this was their first time really doing anything in the car and it was gratifying that they were so pleased with the performance.
