I live in a tiny town, Ranburne. But I work at ANAD for GDLS. That's Anniston Army Depot for General Dynamic Land Systems. I am a RESET Mechanic there.

Nice you enjoying the snow? It's been 18 years since this part of Alabama has seen this amount and magnitude of snow.

I've already hit a patch of black ice and got sideways going down road. Luckily 10mph I was able to ride it out. I always drive in 2 and not above 20mph when there is snow or anything. It is sleeting again now, and so far work has not been called off.

When radiator cracked...was stuck out in the middle of no where and had to run it hot for a half mile. Not holding oil pressure....has 150k on it. The oil pressure holds at 19psi instead of 40psi. But at least the rockers are not knocking everytime the engine cranks now. Whew

Sucks being the only ride I have now.
