Over The Hill Gang , Old Farts with Young Cars

Hey Ruby, my thoughts are with you today. Some days all we can do is know that we're doing the best we can with what we're given. Hang in there, better days are coming.



g'morning Gang! What is everyone still sleeping? Get up! You're wasting daylight!

Welcome to the thread Chris, and Thank you for your service. I'm sure your family and car miss you just as much as you miss them.

Thinking of you....this isn't easy, had to do it with my mom 5 or 6 years ago....been downsizing her and upgrading the care since then......she's a fighter though. Thank God I have a wonderful place for her to live that takes very good care of her and respects their residents. I visited numerous places before I found what was right for us.

I know deployment is tough, son is active duty Army, been on 2 deployments so far........hope you get lots of mail, decent quarters with phone and internet access, decent weather and stay safe. You're our hero!

I ditto what Deb said. Just do the best you can with the hand you've been dealt. That's all anyone can ask. You WILL get thru it. And remember, we loves you girl.

Nope, no leaks! Need to verify my data @ 1400 hrs today tho

How do those work?

1. Find a comfy place to lie down
2. Close eyes
3. wait 15 minutes, verify no leaks.
4. repeat (preferrably 32 times)

If leaks are found, patch with tape

Hi gang,

I'm quite excited! I just acquired a new accessory for Lightning. Even Lightning is excited. When I bought the car I intentionally did not get the 2SS. I got the 1SS instead cuz I didn't feel like I needed the gauge package and I definately did not want the leather seats. However, the leather seats are nice at car shows. Really nice. So, I've been looking for some kind of seat covers that I could slip on and off without too much trouble for car shows. Well, I finally found the perfect solution. At first I thought I might have to install Deb's "passenger seat belt fix" to keep them quiet, but I realized I'm not going to be IN the car when they're on the seats. And if bad comes to worse I can wave a credit card in front of them. That will messmerize them for a while and keep them quiet. Here is a picture from the catalog. They're a bit high maintenance but I'm hoping they're worth it. I think they'll look good in Lightning.
