No easy out on this one. :( At best clean / organize the garage or storage shed and get it ready for your new four wheel baby. Might help take your mind off of the wait. :eek: Also a good time to catch up on past posts and pictures.;)

The past post and pictures are costing me money I do not have. Drooling over Altavistas tiller, Staring down a Jinma Chipper, looking into Hydraulic motors, must have post hole digger, must have adjustable blade, must make custom tree cutter, I have no shed, just a carport so am designing what my new 60X80 metal shed will be, Looking on craigslist for a nice tombstone, have to get a new compressor... I NEED A LIFE (or my tractor or a divorce attorney)

OK... So this is how you know I am pulling my hair out.

I just ordered the following....

TAS Technology Small Skull Fire 3-D Urethane Crystal Trim Medallions 10-1/2" x 5-1/20 : JC Whitney: Auto Parts & Accessories
Omix Ada Cup Holder : JC Whitney: Auto Parts & Accessories
8 Ball & Pool Ball Suicide Knob
Chrome Skull Shifter

I ahve always been suspecious of the "truck broke down" excuse. I worked for a distributor at one time and the dispatcher worked not to far away from my office. many times I heard him telling the customer Service Staff to call customers and tell them thr truck broke down when really it did not! it was jsut an easy excuse because they got backed up and couldn't make allt he deliveries.

Yup, nope, its real. I kinda feel sorry for the trucker. He has made some bad repair decisions and continues to get the short end of the stick from the mechanics. He has lost a week of work, and is about to loose mine as well. We are having another truck had up and take the rig...
