Message Wow guys. I can't thank you enough. With all the scams lately going around here, you guys still opened your wallets. The wheels cleaned up really well. He'll be so excited and appreciative. Colby never asks for anything but needs so much. The only things I can offer him are to get his truck safe and make his everyday needs easier to do, like lowering the truck for him to get in and out easier. Since you guys have opened up, I'll tell you what happened to me a few weeks ago with his truck. It stayed parked for a year while he had his surgery and during his recovery. He said his wife took it to work to run the motor and the battery would die. They charged it and it died again. I told him I'd go look at it and repair whatever it was. The alternator was giving the same voltage as the battery which was slowly dropping from 10 volts...not 12 or 14 like it should while running. Soooo I assumed it was the alternator. He lives in an apartment so I couldn't work on the truck there. I charged the battery and got to 12 volts and THOUGHT I could make it home which was a 15 minute drive on a major hiway. Merging onto I-10 I smelt rubber...thought it was because it hadn't ran it a while so I dismissed it. 3 miles later, the battery died. I was at the intersection of I-10 and I-49 at 4pm on a Friday! Not a good idea. I had a friend come charge me up with jumper cables. I then made it through the interchange and onto I-49...4 miles from my house. It died again. I took the battery out and had my friend go to Autozone and exchange it for a new one. While that was being done I had another friend coming to help with the alt. I noticed on the side of the hiway that the alt belt was gone! So I called that friend and diverted to another Autozone to get a belt. He had to pass me up, get tools from my house, then get the belt and we changed it on the side of the hiway during 5 o'clock traffic. So finally at 6 o'clock I drove home with a new battery and new alt belt. Long story short (tooooo late) I spent 3 hours on the side of the hiway BUT at least his alt was good. The next day I rebuilt one of the electric motors on the wheelchair lift, it wasn't swinging in or out of the bed. Sealed up the motor with gasket maker and got it going again. It has a plastic cover over the motor but the moisture got in there and just rusted everything. That's a long story for a thread that starts off with SPEECHLESS!!! Thanks again guys! Your good deed isn't going un-noticed.

"Well I have an ex-wife, a girlfriend with 2 kids, 4 kids of my own, a boss and, a mother. I don't have any more room for making people happy."


"She's always wet and hot and purrs when I slide inside of her. She screams when I put my foot down and isn't too hard to control. She is usually straight but she slides her rear out when I ask her too. Always gives me a boost. Stays with me and leaves the other guys behind. She is even more fun when her top is off...so free. Sometimes a friend will join in, male or female, and we both enjoy her. Plus she is a non smoker...what more can you ask for?"
