Would have been nice if they had told you that when you ordered it. :D Heck as long as this is taking we could have built one ourselves by now. :cool:

I'm just kidding of course. I have no clue why it's taking so long. It was supposed to take two weeks and now it is almost four weeks. Woodbury was supposed to check on it, but they haven't called me back yet. :rolleyes:

Look at the bright side: My Tiller's PTO drive came in! :) And just as soon as I can get my truck and trailer out of my driveway past that pile of loam and up to Merrimack, I'll actually be able to use it! :)

Listen if you want, I'll load up the Tank tomorrow when I get home. I figure between the two of us we can have that pile of loam moved in an hour or two. The town will never know what hit them. You could be up to Tax Free NH by lunch time. :cool:

Don't even need the Tank! The Red Beast with the 78" bucket would make short order of that hideous pile. It's so full of peat that it weighs about the same as wood mulch.

But you remember what happened when I just tried to repair the hot, soft curbing right after a dog ran through it. The town's inspector called the police and tried to have me arrested for "vandalizing town property"! :mad: :mad: :mad:

Imagine what he would do if he ever saw me and The Beast moving his loam??? :eek: Could be a charge of Murder One!!! :rolleyes:

I'd put some gas back in the Vette again just so I could drive it back and forth to the bank!!!

Rumor is the C5 Vettes get good gas mileage. Maybe you need that economy car?:D

The one in my garage *is* an old C5 Dave... or did you mean the current C6??? :confused:

And let me tell you: Either Vette is an economy car compared to the gas-guzzling Chevy Silverado 2500HD. :( But none of the above can compare to my trusty "ARE"!!! :)

(ARE = Ancient Rusting Econobox)

Yep I have a C5 also with the 6 speed and it gets over 30Mpg on highway driving; amazing with 350+ ponies

There is no drag and it is turning fewer RPMs at highway speed than most new cars today do at idle. :) How sweet is that (Yes, I still remember)! :D
