I drank beers and warshed my truck for 4 hours I buffed the hell out of it my god is it shiny didn't get pics since its dark and our power went out for some reason so I garaged it for tomorrow. Also took back an eraser wheel that almost ruined my drill because the idiot said I didn't need an adapter I can just put the wheels threaded end into the drill.. well it doesn't so when I took it back and told him he said I didn't have it tight enough I just looked at him like wtf dude you know you're wrong. I got my money back.

Buddy chris came over to check out the race car we took it for a ride and its knocking when it feels like it, because it didn't knock at all until we hit a bump, this leads me to bbelieve somethings loose or moving somewhere on or in the engine. So we will take the top off and check the gaasket and look for any metal shavings or signs of messed up parts. We also did some measurements of the doors we are swapping out mine and his driver doors and I gave him some climate control *****. And he gave me his spare tire. Its fun swapping parts lol

Vacuumed the sand out of the van, and played with the Ford a bit, still can't figure out why it keeps stalling.

I fixed my quad highs today. I replaced the relay, and everything is fine again.
