That is a nice first gen.

On a side note I'm thinking of ordering replacement grills for both my trucks. Should I?

You will use the crap out of it. I wouldn't mind having a skid loader or one of those jcb telehandlers, we had a jcb and it was nice since you could telescope the boom out.

Hopefully it'll work out good, its def been abused in its former life, but my buddy has taken care of it, rebuilt some things over the last 20 yrs.
I'm already looking at building a set of forks for it, and modifying my plow to use on it as well

Yup, I'm good Dar, Thanks for asking. Storms all around, some bad stuff not too far away. Had F1 and F2 tornados 30-40 miles away, and a microburst or straight line wind of some kind about 6 miles from here. Lots of trees down, and the wifes friends cousin and her baby got killed when a tornado blew 4 houses down. That was the F2. Pretty unusual for this area. Most we get is a micro burst or something. Some places won't have power until tomorrow or Friday at last report, but those areas are small.

Yeah, easy here, saw it was getting dark so I put some bricks on the grill cover and covered all the truck stacks and went in the house. Downpoured for a little while, some lightning and thunder and a little wind. Power went out for about 2 minutes and all was good after that. Saw on the news it was way worse east of me.

Glad it missed you Pete. We had some storms roll through Monday and a tornado just south of me. They were always saying how the chances of a tornado hitting this are was slim because of the river and the valley. It tore up a marina when it touched down on the river.

All the talk of tornadoes, I forgot to share a picture I took at work a little while back. Some of you all on facehole have seen it, but I figure I'd post it up for everyone on here.

Darn near flew over the plant, the air was dead still :shock:
