Well I'm sitting here waiting on my trailer brakes to show up... then I get to finish the trailer and pull the truck in the shop for a couple of quick things on it and if all goes well I can get to bed early and leave out tomorrow morning....

If all goes well I'm hoping to get in early enough Saturday to load the boat, meet up, and head back out but if I can't get in early enough then I'll have to spend the night and do it Sunday. I had a friend who was gonna come with me but he waffled and now it looks like I'm driving 36 hrs solo.... gonna be a long weekend.

I'll keep this page updated as things progress.

Ok I'm sooooo pissed right now... I got the trailer all done and went to get the truck... it just cranked and wouldn't fire... after half a day of trouble shooting, it looks like my chip wasn't seated properly in the pcm and burned up the eprom! I now have another PCM on the way but it won't be here till monday... That was ANOTHER $200 (just about exactly $4000 now) and ANOTHER delay!
DAMMIT DAMMIT DAMMIT

I'm so sorry to keep stringing you guys along.

Next I get to call the seller and tell him I have yet another delay.... ugh!

No problem here. Didn't look like MJ would have been able to meet on Sat anyhow.

Hi SOTW,

Not sure what your plans are, but if you are thinking about this weekend better check the weather before you start...

We're getting mixed forecasts for NJ right now.. All agree that a storm is coming,...with snowfall ranging from 2 to 24 inches, depending on who you are listening to. So you guys in Mass. will probably get the same or worse, depending on the storm track. I'm thinking this weekend is a good time to go to your neighborhood pub and swap fishing stories as you sip your favorite adult beverage.
