Re: Pimp My Ride
Hurk: you may not have to do this, but I blew a trans because I was going back and forth thru a 1' deep flooded road and I didn't clean the trans fluid. It appears that most auto trans have breather hole on top and when water is that deep, it can get into the trans fluid. I would take it to one of those quick stops for an auto trans flush. But then it was a ford trans, so who knows.

Re: Pimp My Ride
Paul I have done the same thing in a car once, got in to deep. But as you can see in the photo it sits almost a foot off the ground and the top of the tranny is much higher. Now getting my ladders down off the rack is a trick, ya need another ladder like a 6 footer
I'll post the build list that was in the window as soon as I can.
Oh by the way, Yes that was about a 10' gator, Crocs don't venture that far away from salt water. Just gave him some room to excape and made some noise and he slowly got up and moved off into the swamp.

Hey guy's I don't have a picture, but I was moved from install to service. The back of my truck is clean now. George, you don't have to pop a high blood pressure pill when thinking of my truck.
When I took the photo, I was running three guys (plus me) out of that truck. We had no on-site storage. It was tough to keep the truck neet. I thought the photos would be funny, but some guy's went overboard.

What are you implying? Should my truck be run over by a monster earth mover. Hey, I cleaned it out.

Re: Pimp My Ride
This just isn't my day...and it was supposed to be my day off.
So, after hitching up the boat we had a slight mishap:
After waiting several hours for AAA and a crane, we finally made it to the ocean.
I can't explain how this happened......
but I'm going to have to have an answer for a few people...the Mrs., the State Police, the insurance co., etc.
Any suggestions on how to get out of this mess?
They must have changed the channel markers...

We have a company ski boat in our warehouse. After seeing those pictures, I don't think I'll ask to take it out next ski season!
