Well. The good news is that the truck got me from Phoenix to San antonio without a hitch. Ran great and was pretty comfortable. Got it inloaded, cleaned out the back and put 49 gallons of diesel in it.

The bad news is that I pulled off in a target parking lot to get a cup of coffee and wait out the rush hour traffic. And now the truck won't start. I'm literally a few miles from the drop off waiting on hold with roadside assistance. :)

About 12 years ago Mrs Xue was with me at friends house, who was an LEO. And she was asking about police and talking about how they don't carry guns in China. So my friend went and got his duty rig and showed here the Glock he had to carry. Mrs Xue got very upset and wanted to leave and not go back, guns were dangerous....which I was shocked by because she was trained in China how to shoot a rifle and ha no issue with the shotgun I had in the house.... but a hand gun to her, was very different to her.

Today she calls me and she wants to go to a tactical training place to learn how to shoot a hand gun...I'm not sure how to take this..... I'm thinking i should be very very afraid..:D

You were already afraid.
If Mrs Xue is that hinky about handguns, she wouldn't like my house. Or me, I guess.
