January 20, 20232 yr As far as leash training it is very simple yet requires a LOT of patience. Once your dog starts pulling just walk in the opposite direction. The dog will pull that way as well, but you must continue changing direction every time. The dog will eventually give up and watch for you to lead. I recommend a backpack full of beer for this training exercise.
January 20, 20232 yr Please people check out a gentle leader before you go down the pinch collar route. It is more effective than any kind of harness or collar I've ever used. I'm disgusted with myself that I used a prong collar on my dog in college. https://www.petsafe.net/gentleleader
January 24, 20232 yr I just want to say thanks to this thread. I sold my recently deceased father's truck for cash, title in hand. I kept the plates, registartions sticker and toll tag. We filled out the online transfer of title notice before handing over the keys. Nice guy buyer sent me a picture the same day with new plates and registration sticker on the truck. Square deal. No BS. Thanks Surly.
February 4, 20232 yr This pendejo had all that sweet downtime off the roofs with the ice storms and still no action. His phone Still doesn't work. I'm starting to think think this guy is a piece of shit I mean the first few DMs from others that also got burned kind of confirmed matters, but maybe he's just misunderstood?Fuck face

Fuck face So this shit still hasn't been taken care of? Jesus. On the upside, he's probably about to be flush with insurance cash fixing all the roof damage from the ice storm. On the downside, he's going to be driving all over town racking up tolls.

Manufacturing, distribution, sales, and service. The only thing I got out of that past life is a cool story, a near bankruptcy and a need to race cars before I die. Wait! Wait! Wait! Sooooo...tranny stuff?

February 6, 20232 yr I had an employee that used the word “tranny” at work, he wasn’t well liked, I fucking cringed every time he said it. So yeah, not cool and true at the same time. Grrrr.

I was just being an asshole, poking with it. Certainly not meaning to offend. It was a hanging curveball.

Keep in mind we would sell 4-5 new transmissions or transaxles per month and repair another 8-10. It was a front and center term and I would wince every time.
February 8, 20232 yr I would reckon I've used tranny in place of transmission at a 25/1 clip. Don't know why, but I know it's been that way at least 20 years and has not a single thing to do with the LGQBT movement. I would also estimate it's me dog cussing a 4L60e, and now a 6L80e problem child about 75% of those times.

My son is 13, so I’ll just keep it for his first truck in a couple of years. I need to drive it more so the few original things on it don’t rot while it’s in storage. I fired it up after my dads funeral. Other than a dead battery, it ran like a top. The interior is unbelievably clean. https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/topic/22521-new-motor-with-100k-gm-warranty-avalanche-ltz-new-interior-brakes-tires-more/#comment-4243433 Edited February 8, 20232 yr by Elvis

March 8, 20232 yr So. Been nearly a month. [mention=1009]ROFL BOX[/mention] is this over?No this piece of shit can't be bothered to answer his phone much less do the right thing. Surprising amount of DMs from people that have had problems with him in the recent past.He probably dumped the dog or something equally shitty.I'm discussing options with an attorney.Might drive down to Drip later.

I'm assuming he's not too busy for this board as he used to post here a lot.
March 8, 20232 yr I sent him a bunch of stuff from our interaction around January 4th...I am sure it's all a big coincidence.
October 7, 20232 yr Author Oh hey, [mention=1009]ROFL BOX[/mention] is back!Oh, hey... I still don't have the title, the truck is still dead from a blown engine & I never have received the $$ on tolls.

How many miles did you drive the truck before the engine died and you’re asking them to pay for your tolls?
