Morning all. 23 degrees, had rain, freezing rain, little snow and now sleet. Slickern crap out there. Glad I took today off. Going to go out to my shop after lunch and fire up the old Fisher stove and work on a couple of saws for a buddy of mine. If you have to be out in southwest missouri today, be careful!

Thirty caliber. Find one with the ‘60’ gunner or assistant gunner.

Part of my job was to make sure we had a couple or three cleaning kits in the squad. Amongst all the other stuff a rifle squad runs on.

Being a squad leader is like being a baby sitter for young adult males. [emoji2960]. They get in trouble constantly. [emoji57]

What do you think of the little Transit overall?
I was thinking about one pretty seriously, but am really liking my 08 Sprinter 1 ton that I bought instead.

I guess they are okay, at best. Great around town when no snow of any kind, but no power for the interstate like we are forced to run (under pressure) most days. Super nice for parking. Boss got it with 139,XXX miles now has 235,8XX. He put a motor in at 210 and a tranny at 218 or so. Tranny was giving trouble when he got it. Only gets around 20MPG so not that great. Like most cars it seems like lots of little stupid things with it that auto manufactures should have learned by now. Or, maybe I am just impossible to please. LOL

When I got my 06 E350 in 2006 (used) I looked hard at the Sprinter for the fuel mileage, but they were newer and support state-side was mediocre at best with a high price to get in to them. Since then I've heard repairs on them can be expensive. Looked at the Ford big transit when it came in 2015 as I was still using my van for the company, but seemed like they were having problems plus expensive. This is now a company owned vehicle so he is stuck with repairs.

How are you liking the Sprinter? Is it the all wheel drive version?

Ventured outside around noon today to check and feed cows. No snow only ice pellets. Can't believe the amount of traffic this afternoon. Neighbors packed up their kids and went somewhere but i couldn't see going anywhere unless it was an emergency. For some I guess the need to go somewhere everyday overrides common sense.

I didn’t leave the house today. Didn’t even venture to the shop, just relaxed and stayed warm. I don’t think it got that bad but the other people out there are what bother me!

I was surprised when my shop helper called asking questions, he had gone in to work without any prodding! He must need the $$ lol. I’m anxiously awaiting the arrival of an SP125 I just bought and the bar as well. I’ve still got a rather large pile of wood to get worked through so there’s room for the next.

Work looks to be busy this year so I’m not sure how much playtime I’ll have for wood or side jobs. Either way I stay out of trouble

I was thinking the same thing myself. I’ve got the M1 but no cleaning kit! Lol

My condolences!
(On the M1 ownership and not the lack of a cleaning kit.)

Who you got next weekend, Cerrone or Conor?

It depends. If it goes past 1-1.5 rounds, Cowboy takes it because Conor will gas. With that said, Cowboy takes some shots to the dome and Conor puts people to sleep. So if Conor can tag him early, Cowboy may go down. Cowboy has taken a lot of punishment and is not as durable as he used to be.

My pick----Cowboy. Mostly because I want him to win; and, I hope he does the smart thing early---takes Conor down and chokes him unconscious. No way Conor can hang with Cowboy on the mat.

Welcome. Glad you made it to this thread. We need more Okies.
