    Tim was working on some elect. on his mav. and needed a crimper. Effie and I road down to his house and took him mine (200 miles round trip).
    Tim didn't know we were coming and when I got within about a mile of his house he called me. he was wanting to know what I was doing in his town. come to find out, someone saw the Maverick tag on the front of my truck and called him to tell him about it...:huh:
    Country living...:thumbs2:

    74 degrees today...:whew:

    Love collard greens. Tried them for the first time just this summer and I was hooked.

    Vry nice mod on the cluster! I like it! :clap::yup:...
    I think it's something that will gather lots of intrest on the forum.
    Who makes those gauges?
    BTW: I had to limit my visits to buffet style dining... It has a tendency to encourage "Lets Say.... Consume Excessive Amounts.";)

    Frank, you are correct, these Dakota Digitals fit in the panel like they were factory. Thanks for the phone call and if this PC board keeps giving me trouble then I'm buying me the set -up. (y)
