  2. Miguel thought we talked about my failed splice, gents is was December flipping cold im on gravel, ill think of another excuse come tomorrow, lol Truth be told Mike pops back the loom unravels my over shrink and tape wrap, there its was, head turned left thought i was gona get a beating he knew i knew better.. All in all hella fun quantum leaps in education for me. Hes certainly amazing at this profession, don't get it twisted this is the tip of the berg. @hdpwipmonkey I remember the Hillsboro facility 40 yrs ago best friends dad work there back when we had Rural Rout addresses, pops owned Banks and Hillsboro part stores. Small world, great minds, great minds. But don't tell Intel ;) Army of seasoned Avionics Boeing, Lockheed, Liquide engineers awaiting. We should chat. @doubletrouble - Sir you know the drill i was dumbfounded. Don't want to bug mike but kinda need tires, NW is ripe with Diesels. seeing guy buying new rigs, then new rims and tires within in 50 miles then selling on CL for a bit over my tire cost and well,,, im 20yr stock. Any Ideas, got 10 days till launch? Michael **
  3. K- short as i can be. acquired gen 2 5.9 24 to pull my rig to Intel Az. Keep in mind I know nothing about diesels, haven't driven a manual in years let alone pull a 28' cross country. Work offer of a life time, short notice, freaking out. I call him he picked up, no virtual hold press every button for the next 1/2 hour BS. Mike hears my panic mode, "give me a few days to plan and ill drive down" aaaahh what, can u please repeat that,, ditto! WTF came to mind! Rearranges his could be busy for a life time schedule, then keeps me updated of his location for eta (fin thought he was in a crop duster). Shows up cracks the whip, parts flying of my front end and drive train. I'm trying to take notes, part lists, catch parts bring tools and of course the torch thing, hellooo! I never forget this experience, especially this one moment. He casually turns around,,, "ok i think were done" He turns the key, varoom, all the scaring the **** out of me issues, well, just magically disappeared, gone! Another WTF moment. Good man amazing brain and skill sets. Guys/Gals I'm a high purity IC engineer. Eternally grateful, no fear of dyeing on the desert drive.. Michael "Mr Mopar Man" I wish you and your tribe all the best.. Michael Boise
