i went out to my s10 sitting out at the end of the driveway for sale to grab a set of lawnmower tires out of it (i threw a bunch crap that i wanted to get rid of in the truck) and its got mew exhaust pipe and muffler on it that i kinda wanna put on my ranger... haha so since the muffler and 3.5-4 feet of pipe is only held on by a muffler clamp im gonna unbolt that and then cut the rest off. then im gonna take the exhuast off the ranger and throw it in the back of the s10 and get rid of it because its all rusted and stuff.

Today I drove my ranger to pay my cell phone bill, went to harbor freight to get a tach for my truck and then went to mow my friends yard and went to have breakfast with the lil lady. THen went to auto zone to see if they had a pod to put in my truck for the tach and they did then went to have lunch with the lil lady and now am sitting at home wating for my frind to get home so that we can install and wire up the tach in my truck. Good productive day
