  1. Jack I just picked my truck up this evening (2005 F350) had the head studs replaced, high pressure oil pump and heads milled. So far it seams to be running better then it ever has. Had 118000 miles on it and blew a head gasket because of the crap stock studs. Mike and Scott were great to work with. One thing to beware of is that they are very busy and it can take some time to get the job done mine was there for 3 weeks. They will not hurry just to get trucks out of the shop take the time to do the repairs right which is a good thing. Also for the work that was done Mike's price was over a thousand cheaper then another shop I got a quote from.

  2. I just went to get by pass for the Halloween weekend from Johnny Walker the dates on the pass are October 28 - November 3. The Guy at Johnny Walker called the BLM and was told that the dates on the pass are the holiday dates. If you are getting a weekly pass only make sure you look at the dates it is for other wise you will need to get another pass. I guess the BLM is going to have the weekend after Halloween as the holiday.

  5. This is what I sent to Titus just used the example in the post.

    I respectfully request that Congresswoman Titus replies to me and lets me know if SHE WILL SUPPORT A FAIR, OPEN, AND TRANSPARENT PROCESS OF PUBLIC MEETINGS AND WORKSHOPS FOR GOLD BUTTE THAT ARE SIMILAR TO THE MEETINGS HELD FOR THE LINCOLN COUNTY PUBLIC LANDS BILL OF 2005 WHEREIN EVERYONE MET AND WORKED THROUGH THE SPECIFIC ISSUES TOGETHER. GOLD BUTTE IS TOO CONTROVERSIAL, TOO IMPORTANT, AND TOO BIG OF AN AREA TO NOT HAVE A SERIES OF PUBLIC MEETINGS TO DISCUSS SPECIFIC ISSUES. The Clark County and Lincoln County Public Land Bills set a precedence for future public land legislation; I request a ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer as to whether Congresswoman Titus will support a fair, open, and transparent series of public meetings regarding the 330,000 acres of the Gold Butte area and I respectfully request her ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answer in writing.” I also request that my name and address be added to any meeting notification list.”

    Here is her reply back she has no clue that I am wanting it to be kept open. I guess I will need to make a phone call maybe she will understand a call more then she can understand a e mail.

    Dear Mr. Marx,

    Thank you for contacting me about your support for the protection of Gold Butte.

    I share your concerns about the need to preserve this historical, cultural, and natural landmark. As you may know, in 2008, my colleague, Congresswoman Shelley Berkley, introduced H.R. 7132, the Gold Butte National Conservation Area and Wilderness Designation Act. The 110th Congress was unable to pass this legislation before they adjourned. I will work with my colleagues in the 111th Congress to ensure that the need for further protection of Gold Butte is addressed once again.

    In the meantime, please know that I will work to ensure that any legislation introduced is the product of a consensus among Nevadans on this issue and I look forward to ensuring that this remarkable area is protected and preserved for generations to come.

    Thank you again for taking the time to get involved. Please do not hesitate to contact me again in the future.

  6. When you say .. you can still get a ticket... do you mean for like speeding or can and will you get a ticket for not having the endorsement because your still in permit stage?

    You confussed me.. lol.. sometimes its not hard

    Capt

    What I was trying to say was that as long as you only have the permit you are required to have some who has the endorsement in the vehicle with you. If you are pulled over and no one with you has the endorsement you can be issued a ticket. The question I need to get answered is can you show up for the drive test without someone who has the endorsement? Hopefuly they can answer that for me when I call and scheduled the drive test.

  7. Jim got an email from the DMV today ref the J endorcement process, they said you have to take a written test to get a permit first then make an appt for the driving skills test. They said not all DMV locations do the driving test so you have to check which locations have someone qualified and make an appt with them. They didn't say how long you had to have the permit for before you could take the skills test or what kind of restrictions came with the permit or anything like that.

    I took the written test today at the Henderson DMV, the test is 20 questions and you can miss 4 questions. I did very little studing of the J&R endorcement handbook and passed. Next they will give you a permit that is good for one year, you can still get a ticket with the permit. You will need to call the North Vegas office to schedule your drive test. After Wed 2/24/10 the requirements for information you need to supply changes. You will be required to Have a orignal birth certificate or passport, your SSN card and 2 forms of proff of your address (bills that are mailed to your house in your name) Make sure you take this information with you or they will turn you around. The reason that I was given about this new requirement is due to Homeland security.
