I've got some I wouldn't mind getting rid of. Solar salt, in maple grove, $3.50/bag, only problem is I only have a pallet jack there, no machine, so it would have to be loaded by hand.

LLC company with comm.auto liability once i start plowing. Very experienced in skidloaders and would be willing to park my truck for a reasonable pay. Thanks Dan

Looking for sub with small truck for 5 drives in Minnetonka and St Louis Park, possibly more. This will be per time plowing, and is super easy. I did it myself for years, and now the last couple years I have had to sub it out as it is too far away from the bulk of our stuff. Most recent driver is now also too busy, and leaves me looking again.

I also am looking for a sub for 6 drives in Burnsville, possibly more. Also all per time and is good money, just too far for us these days.

You need to be dependable and insured!

Thanks Dan

Evening gentlemen, my question is a bit off topic but please bear with me. Some of you may have seen the situation I'm in with my truck but for those who havn't, I'm going to need a new GEM module and a lot of wiring in the cab in my 99 F250 Super Duty 7.3, due the the previous owners hack together job of putting the interior of an 02 superduty in.. Since this project is a bit hefty and whoever takes on this project and their quality of work will determine how much problems I have in the future with this truck. I've narrowed it down to Gary's diesel in Lorretto, , Foline auto in Belle Plaine, and Waconia Ford. But I'm looking for input on who I should give the job too. I want this truck done as best it can be and be as close to stock as possible, so that if there is problems in the future they'll be easier to fix.

Thanks for your time,

John

if you want it 100% stock take it to ford. other wise if you want a good job done but maybe not 100% stock. take it to either gary's or foline.Both are very good. if you are going to go to a ford dealer I would recommend minnetonka ford. labor rate it about the same and a lot better quality work in my experience.

Even though it's not MN it's close enough, they are saying 2-4 inches overnight in Fargo. Could finally get our first plowable event this winter!!

Nick Roehl at Honest Auto in Plymouth would be my best advice. He's a powerstroke nut and loves 7.3s.

Not sure how many followed this a few years back, the Hawes brothers Ed and Andy used to own Hawes Lawn Service in Minneapolis, until money tension broke the family apart. Andy never got over his "suspicions" of Ed stealing from the company (they were always in debt up to there eyeballs, there was never really anything to steal anyway), and ended up killing him. These 2 were a perfect example of how NOT to run a business. Anyway, Thursday June 14, 2012 at 9pm Central on Investigation Discovery, they're doing the Hawes story about the problems, the murder, the burning of Ed's body in a fire pit, etc in a show called Blood Relatives. It hits close for me as I worked for them 10 years ago.

Brendon: Sorry to hear of your connection with that bit of history.

On a more upbeat story, my son will be on Secret Millionaire on Sun the 10th at 7:00 on Channel 5. Damm, I'm proud of him.
