The ole' Christmas haul...

[MyTrac]

Got some pretty awesome gifts!! How about you guys.......???

1.Tool box for the bed.

2.131 piece Kobalt tool set
3.94 piece Craftsman tool set

4.Craftsman mechanics gloves
5.Craftsman tool bag
6.Bridgestone emergency auto kit
7.$200. in various autoparts store gift cards
8.Gas cards
9.Expensive repair bill (in my stocking....)

Would appreciate it if you could send a prayer up for my girlfriends family this holiday season. They are having a rough time of it this year and could use a shout out to the big guy upstairs....Dad passed away in june from cancer and mom has advanced cancer. Just a thought for you guys as we think about family and how much it means to us. I have never appreciated family more than now when I seem to be losing them all so quick.

Quick shout out to everyone on the forum. Thank you for all of your help! I think I have spent more money from reading on here than saving, but what the hell, right? Never would have learned all that I have if not for you guys. I seem to always impress the mechanic guy I go to every time I am in his shop. Everything works in theory for me but when I go to do it I can't seem to make it right. But hopefully it will come with time.

If anyone wants other pics of stuff, let me know. I can update the thread.

Alas, this ends the post

Sorry to hear about your girlfriend's family man, prayers going their way from the whole Gerner Family.

 

[OffTrac]

We're praying.

You've got some cool automotive lovers' gifts. I'm assuming you mean the bill was paid off, not that you were given one to pay, lol.

 

[SammichHoarder]

My thoughts and prayers go out to her and her family.. :\

Sorry to hear the bad news.
I like that tool box and almost got one. I went with a step stool tool box instead though so I could reach crap on the top of my truck.

As for gifts, Santa was on point this year. I got a cordless hammer drill, sawzall and impact wrench. All of it runs on 18V Li-ion batteries. Drill works great. Unfortunately I havent found a need for the sawzall yet

 

[MyTrac]

and no the bill I still have to pay LOL! my momma and dad are very funny people (NOT!). And thanks for all the prayers. I know she and mom appreciates it. I am excited to get that tool box in. unfortunately the northeast (Michigan and a whole host of other states) got slammed with snow. I have a foot in my driveway. DRIVE SAFELY LADIES AND GENTLEMAN!! Installing things will have to wait

 

[BigRondo]

Nice gifts you got there.

Thoughts and prayers for your girlfriend's family. Losing parents is tough. We all know it's going to happen one day, but there is no amount of preparation that makes it any easier.

I had to buy my own gifts for the Trac but I do a good job of it anyway.

 

[interscope8]

I have that craftsman set!

My prayers go out to you and your girlfriend's family. Thats pretty rough.

 

[MyTrac]

thanks all!

Just said a prayer for her family! Jumping on the forum a few days after Xmas always yields posts of new goodies. WAGS of the members of the EF always seem to know exactly what we want! My gf got me a double din alpine deck for Xmas, I was in the middle of installing it this week but got sidelined with the flu bug the past couple days. I'll be posting pics as soon as I'm back in action.

 

[MyTrac]

Lono do you have a how to for wiring off road lights to a switch in the cab? I don't know how to read the diagrams. I want to mount them either behind the grille or up top the truck. Idk yet though

 

[LONO100]
