Haven't pulled in three years with the old truck.

Yarded the old Ford out of the weeds today. Cleaned out the rats nest, pulled the weights and weight bar off and removed excess junk out of the cab. Brake controller (Kelsey Hays), business band two way radio from my logging days, CB mounts and excess wires all over the place. Looks funny with the bumper back on.

Might see some 1/8 mile track action this fall. Local bunch has access to a remote, seldom used airport. They have been doing test and tune. The state still has a group restriction so only 10 cars and 50 spectators allowed for now.

Should be fun!

Got a good buy on 2 Napa batteries today. Group 24 marine/starting, 800 cca/1000 ca. They were having their fill up the bucket sale, you buy the bucket and any 3+ items are 20% off. I saved about $80 on what I picked up. They are for the Ford but are sized to fit the dump trailers ;D
