Meanwhile...My GD Ram didn't want to start this morning. I've had this problem off/on for around 4 months now. In researching this issue, it is pretty common so I did all the easy stuff first and it worked...till it didn't. Changed battery, cleaned grounds, all was well till this morning. Dead. Not even a starter click. 2022 Laramie with a hair under 39k on the clock.

6.5 hours later, new starter is in. 2 weeks at the dealer to get it done under warranty. F that. NAPA delivery to the house for the win. $245 after core return.

Forgot to mention...LOVE my air suspension. Jacked it up as high as it would go and was able to fit my fat *** comfortably underneath. :lol:

My spouse and her siblings are the acid test, drive till they won’t move. Her younger sister drove a new Toyota Celica 110,000 miles and never changed or checked the oil. Hard to argue with zero maintenance costs.

Went to see an Elton John cover band last evening. Small venue & only 15 minutes from our house. They were pretty darn good!

Went to the cohocton fall festival car show.
They had a snowmobile show as well.
A bit odd as it a was 85 degrees today.
I actually didn't take any pictures of cars

I was talking with the guy about the oil injection sled. I asked if it still ran.
He fired it up and it ran perfectly.
 
Had breakfast with the car guys, then attended the viewing of a friend. Funeral tomorrow. Drove PURFCT around, all day.

PURFCT...

Sold a bit of silver today....just for the hay of it, I went to a pretty good pawn shop first because I had a piston to possibly sell but mainly to get an idea what to ask for it. They must not be doing too well (not a single customer in there but me) and offered me nothing much on the silver and even less for the pistol. So much for pretty good but the guy behind the counter told me to try Eagle Gold and Coins and that was just down the road from me. Never knew they were there. Got 46.50/oz and interested in the pistol. Didn't take it with me to them though. Will later today or tomorrow.
 
Went and bought a pail of VP C12, for test and tune tomorrow. YIKES!!! 108 bucks.
