Well, part of it. The other part was the mare LIQUID HIPS http://www.allbreedpedigree.com/liquid+hips. She has a fly sheet on and will get pics when I take it off to check her out tomorrow. I pull it off every couple of days to check for rubbing and brush her out.

Curious if this was a gift to yourself or if you have a hubby or SO that gifted you with these AWESOME gifts!? So exciting!
Also, It's a small question, but if your SO or Hubby did buy you this.... Do they have a brother?   |

| I bought it for myself. Hubby died years ago and the only men I can find want me to pay their bills. Had the old truck for 17 years. Time for a new one. Could not make up my mind whether to get a diesel or not. Talked to everyone and they all said that they got 6-8 MPG pulling a trailer and saw 4 NEW 18 wheelers broken down in one day, two or three people who use their trucks for work said the would not get another diesel. I decided to go with a 6.4 Hemi. I get about 12 MPG pulling a trailer and about 18 running down the highway. I drive about 68-70. (speed limit on the way to school is 75) Not getting a diesel was a good decision as far as I am concerned. Never know my trailer is back there.
I will be happy to hook you up with some of the bums that I know. One or two of them attend barrel races regularly.

| Thank you guys. Appreciate it.
My next major expense is getting my driveway fixed . I have holes in the holes. When you get 15 inches of rain in two days the driveway suffers. Just thankful it didn't flood here, holes are minor.

We went with a gas engine after the Ford 6.0 diesel fiasco. 05 Chevy dually, 8.1. Pulls our LQ just fine! Owned it five years. NO issues other then routine maintenance. |

If we get a new truck it will be a gas. Too much crap and drama with the new diesels for me.

We went to a gas truck after years of driving diesel. The difference in the price of regular gas and diesel was the main reason, but the cost of repair work definitely factored in. |
