Re-re-evening guys. Got busy for a bit.
I was briefly unsupervised as Glo was at a ERM conference. Had to fend for myself for dinner. The horror, the horror.

Wasn't for me, had to wait till 65. That was one of the can't pass it up for only working 3 more months to get a new one time only company early out program - they extended my company insurance till I was 65. Nice bit of change that stayed in my pocket if I'd had to pay for my own insurance, and I was going to. Delta was incredibly better to their employees than the one I'd been in before they bought it.

Pretty easy for me, too, except for the financial part. Or is that what we're talking about?

The Ram's tailgate has been difficult to lock and unlock, and today with a load of groceries back there, it didn't want to open. Finally got it open and noticed a long removeable panel on the inside, took that off and the whole mechanism is exposed. Enough accumulated dirt to make it sticky, cleaned it up and it's smooth as new. Nice that they put that panel there.

Did I mention I saw on the original dealer invoice that was kind of hidden that it has remote start and a few other things I didn't know about. Remote start didn't work, figured what the hell, never had one before anyway. A couple days later, wondered if by some chance the second fob would work - and it did. Might come in handy some day. Don't have to worry about anyone driving it off (although it's still illegal to have a car idling while empty here), has to have the key turned to the run position to take it out of park.

Mine has a button on the driver side taillight you can hit to lower the tailgate, I get mind fog trying to figure out all the buttons & gadget setting on this new one. The 360 god view around the truck when you start it fun , things got more camrea's than a room full of iPhones. Even the rearview is a camera.
