So I had to go on a 210 mile round trip today in ol' Silver (yeah, that's her name), and I was kicked back doin a nice steady 80 on the interstate, when I actually took a look at my steering wheel, and realized, WOW, I need an alignment! LMAO! This pic was taken, while I was driving STRAIGHT. I guess I've been so focused on other things that I didn't realize it was so off!

Anyway, I had such nice quality time with ol' Silver today :)

***Still haven't gotten the sharp new headlights on yet, hopefully this weekend! I'm dyin' over here......***

Oh, and don' get used to seein' that gas guage lookin' like it does in that pic, haha, that's only cause I wanted her full since I had quite an excursion to go on! It's rarely ever that full these days.

Yeah it's pretty sad, lol. Oh, and it's a tad more difficult than you'd think snappin a pic of your steering wheel while driving that fast in high winds.....I'm no novice but it took a couple tries haha....

I'd kill to have a diesel right now lol. It's definitely my next truck. But diesel has been cheaper then gas here for over 2 years. Most of the time 30-40 cents cheaper then unleaded

Diesel is proving a good decision up here now too... Regular - 129.9, Diesel 109.9

And I get better fuel mileage with diesel, so I'm happy. :)

After installing the borgeson shaft my wheel is skewed to the left a bit. Drives me nuts.

Not an alignment, but your steering wheel readjusted. What most likely happened is the last shop that did the alignment didn't lock in the steering wheel so it got messed up during the adjustment

diesel is more expensive here than gas, it doesn't make sense, i love my diesel, and never want another gasser, but i still wanna know why my diesel costs more than it should. guess uncle sam has been getting greedy around here
