Yeah sickening feeling to see a friend leave home. Welded chassis, changed bulkhead, lots of TLC and she says it has to go. Various excuses, cant use that for work, cant drive it you're spending more on that than the family. I couldn't win so the truck had to go. :cry: :cry: :cry: :cry: Got Disco for me SAAB for her so things do get better second time round , it just takes a lot of manipulating and scheming. :twisted:
