Rob (Kuzi) has said he'll tow with a proper headsup.
Then we just need somewhere to take it for a few days while it gets worked on.
We need a volunteer driveway and a couple guys to go yank an engine.

and braking systems, auxillary lighting for the towed vehicle.
if he tows it with the blue one, maybe, but if he gets pulled over he can get fined either way. i wouldnt tow with the blue one anyway (with the tempermental ABS system)
just a lot about that situation i personally wouldnt do. i know steve has an f250 (or 350)

thanks... i hope so too. it seems like its just one thing after another
yeah i know i think someone may have died in this thing before haha.
i checked the code and its a P0500 code. i googled it and it is related to the speed position sensor
i will. i am going to do that when i get home from work
