Ditto! Stay safe out there!
My wife got rear-ended in our jeep a bit over a week ago, it threw her into oncoming traffic and she hit the wife of one of my best friends from High School.
Everyone walked away so that's the best "present" of all.

BAH!! Humbug...I'm gettin' a new transmission for Christmas. Seems the seals between the transmission and the 4WD transfer case went tits up and all the fluid "transfered" to the transfer case.
Very glad everyone's OK Dallan.

Damn…that’s a mix of good and bad luck mate. Most importantly, everyone is OK and there isn’t any injuries to worry about.

Damn, that’s bad luck mate…and if the cost of a tranny (no, not a weird bloke with psychiatric problems) is anything like out here, you are up for a big slug of $$$…it cost me just over $5K to have the tranny overhauled in my daughter’s car.
Seasons Greetings to each and every one of our Nuts and their families. May we all remember the reason for the season and bow our heads in prayer. Also, I hope Santa is really good to you all.

Yep, we made it this far again so we all can expect to be able to enter the new year too... unless someone starts trowing around some misiles or a new COVID-germ or so.
And Bushy: that's still less expensive than a new kidney or a hearing device and you can always take the horse when you don't want to walk your boots...
don't forget: today never returns, so have fun!

True about the horse. I can saddle him up and ride the 4 miles to town and back. but he can't haul very much hay.

I make the bed, do dishes, sweep the floors and do all the cooking and that is every day, and cook on my birthday.

US$1800…thats AUD$2894 at current rates…not a bad price for a complete new transmission, hopefully includes the torque converter. Will you have to fit it yourself, or have a shop do it for you?
You won’t need Zeus to haul hay mate…they should deliver for you, or with a new tranny you could have fun skating down the road to collect a few bales in the truck.
Happy 82nd mate…you are getting younger everyday. Have an awesome birthday with SWMBO.

Hopefully there won’t be any missiles thrown your way in Europe, but anything is possible where Putin is concerned. As for COVID…it is apparently mutating over here, with heaps of people hospitalised, and spreading…way more than expected. That ars3wipe FAUCI had better keep a very low profile!!!  I reckon there will be heaps of people looking for his head on a stick!
I personally blame him for the birth and proliferation of COVID by virtue of his funding of the research into the virus!!!
