Dude i had jack my brother's wheel's today because my truck is still broken and the caddy's wipers decided to take a shit plus it's running like ass

Besides i'm about to go work on it again in a lil bit

it's not that bad out there but i just don't wanna risk it. If it let's up a bit or changes over to rain I MAY head out

Feels good doesn't it? I was happy when I got my motor it, I was even happier when she started and ran under her own power.
