The threat of the valve plate having to come out of the transmission for rehabilitation, became obsolete as our trusty mechanic, Ferlin, found out more information on the vehicle he was dealing with. And so he replaced 3 sensors over a 2 day span, got it all adjusted, and proclaimed that we will rip through … Continue reading Shawnee- Guthrie

Replaced a external sensor on the transmission that wasn't firing properly. It didn't resolve the issue. So they're thinking that it's the valve plate and we're waiting for the gaskets … Continue reading Shawnee

Abilene – Hide out from a VIRUS!
I really wish we had stayed longer in abilene, especially since Lou and Kristen were such wonderful people to have crossed our paths. But I realized how much of a way it was to get to Dallas by the next day to get some mail from my mom for Atreyu's birthday! So we zoomed there. … Continue reading Abilene – Hide out from a VIRUS!
