Alright, I'll admit...I know the road well. I knew what was coming up. I was baiting him. I wanted him to speed up and bottom out and hopefully break something. I wanted him to do it and I got him to do it. I am, of course, a master baiter!

I wanted to spray some idiot tonight but mine is hooked back up....I was sitting at a light to make a right turn, did not really have a chance to make it on red, nor was I in a rush anywhere. And the idiot in his exploder behind me beeped at me multiple times, so then I sat there for a few seconds after green and took my sweet time moving on. Then he tried to pass me so I gave him all 6 in a row full bore just so he couldn't hahaha..impatient bastards these days.

Also, i changed my heater valve and hoses today, yay for no leaks! Then I changed the oil for her 207k change.

the silver switch cuts all power at the battery, great for stopping the mystery power drains, while its sitting

the silver button is directly hooked to the starter, for that odd time when the neutral safty gets mad at me

He ended up slowing down and keeping his distance after that.
Haha, nice. I'm ALWAYS getting tailgated around here, I've gotten used to it. Besides, if they hit me the trailer hitch will destroy their radiator and i'll get a new bumper!

Actually got into a scuffle (Not an actual fight) with some schmuck in a brand new Chevy Malibu a few weeks ago. He was doing about 40 over coming behind me, started tailgating and honking his horn constantly while talking on his phone. I slowed and flagged him to pass, he flipped me off. So i sped up and didn't let him pass, called the cops and he got arrested for excessive speeding, reckless driving, kicking the officer, and trying to assault me. I stayed to give my statement on what he was doing.

I smiled and waved at him when i left.

Oh yeah, he also ran another driver off the road earlier before he meet me. That car didn't flip or anything, but still. And this was on a 2-lane county road with a speed limit of 65

This weekend got more of the replacement rocker sections welded in, fabbed up the first of the actual floor panels, and did some cleanup on my new-to-me fuel rail. Stupid iPhone cable broke, don't feel like messing around with email to get the pics off my phone.

I let him pass when the cop came. Idiot didn't see him because it was a smooth-top cruiser. He took off like a bat outta hell, and the cop lit him up. Funniest damn thing!

I love the 4 wheel steering on those rigs and the blond lady driver was taking those hills like a BOSS!
Must be nice to be able to roll your rig without damaging it.
