C-4 transmission? There was a recall way-back when on the C-4's due to this.

HHHHMMM dry basement with running water in KC. Will keep that in mind for future refernce, say does the snow still fall there in april?

ya need to start saving the gatorade bottles-------pee can or find a more secluded campsite

desperate times call for desperate measures and these are those times here and around the world

find a 24 hr walmart--it is a safe haven for truck driver parking--they'll never notice an old pickup

[Ranchero50]

Local Walmarts are great, only bad thing is the parking lots are lighted but I guess if you throw a tarp over the cab roof...

Have you considered getting a camper or even a topper to sleep under?

Pickup campers can be had for under $500 around here. Post up a CL ad and see what happens.

BTW, the story is pretty funny

yeah sure its funny,a day earlier i was laughing at some show bout some criminal who was on a highspeed chase and speed bumped himself on the curb and ran over his legs, the irony

[Caseys71]

Sorry to hear about it. Things will get better for you though! And the gotta get worse before they can get better right? Maybe this is the point at which things will get better for you! Until then we will keep you in our prayers .

yes it does tony. but since i didn't get a spot at the swap meet this year it was warm and sunny all weekend.

[rjewkes]

it nthink the recall was all ford automatic trannies, but not do to the trannie but do to the knob inside the column wearing down and not catching. also i think Sac, said he left it in reverse by accident while trying to avoid soaking self.

Ford did indeed do some sort of recall. I remember seeing a decal on doors reminding you to set the parking brake after you put it in park.
