And that thing always shifted worse than a tractor...
HAHA, that happened in my Rover once. I really pissed people off driving to my mechanic's entirely in 2nd

There was nothing to grab onto with a wrench, that's how low it snapped off. It took us probably 2 hours to figure out how to weld it back together and not modify the snot out of the rest of the assembly.

Man, I love that stupid truck...

Hey Glen, I hope your issues are solved. I don't even want to look at the shifter.

Only thing that I hate is the obligatory exchange of cell phone numbers...
Had to spend the following day ignoring her text messages....
Finally she got the message.
I know, I'm a pig....

But in my defense, she took advantage of the inebriated state I was in on Friday, a premeditated act!
And I did say I was going home but she wouldn't have it....
Who am I to argue??

If you ever get your hands on the Wevo shift coupler you will wonder why you ever put up with the OEM unit.

I still have to finish putting the center console back together. That is a tediuos job.

And good Monday morning!

He was whining about some 4 letter word on FB.... I said do you have to go back to work you poor baby? Then he posted the letter "P" on my wall.... I was like "WTF? You fail... of course that is to be expected from a wuss" And then he unfriended me....


Guess the no drinks and no smokes has him in touch with his inner feminine...

Who is this mysterious man Sid writes about "Apparently I somehow offended stijn last night.... " and that you call Stigeon? I think he is a figment of your imagination.

maybe he was in a bad mood to begin with...
I texted him today and his reply was very short, maybe he's having stress at work or something.
And you have to admit, you can be annoying too from time to time...
