TRUCK TROUBLE...WHAT!

On Monday Ted and I decided to spend the very hot afternoon at the movies!  We decided to see "After Earth".  We both enjoyed it but Ted thought it had a few slow spots.  I was so busy seeing how much Will Smith's son looked like him I was somewhat distracted but it kept my attention and was an interesting movie!

On Tuesday evening we had dinner with Chip and his girlfriend Laura.  They have been dating about six months.  We went to an Italian place that we like and Sid, a friend of our nephews, works there as a waiter.  Sid was busy with a large group of women on the patio who were eating and meeting about some "make up pyramid scheme" according to Sid!  He managed to spend a bit of time with us.  We got to know Laura a little bit.  She's very pretty and has a good sense of humor.  We'll have to wait to see what happens with them!  Here is a picture of them from two weddings they attended together!

On Wednesday we left Fresno and are back down by Hemet.  We had been noticing a funny noise with the truck.  When you are going slow and making a turn either left or right, there is some times a noise and slight vibration... we both describe it differently!  So we made an appointment for Thursday, left the campground at 6:15 a.m. (still a lot of traffic) and got over to Sunrise Ford in Fontana.  Donald, our trusted service guy sent the tech out with Ted so we could show him the sound.  Of course the truck ran perfect!  The tech put some stuff in that goes to the back wheels because some times dual tire axles can have one tire trying to go one way and the other tire trying to go backwards and this helps lubricate them so this won't happen (something like that)!  He said it takes several months for this to help.  Of course as we drove away, it made the noise!  Maybe it has to be cooled down.  Anyway, they checked it out and don't seem to think we have a problem with the wheel bearing or anything, so we are not going to worry about it right now.  We will mostly drive the car except for when we take the RV to San Diego on Monday and then to turn it and the RV in for the Motor Home!  It is interesting to note that our first truck was perfect the first two years and then we had trouble and oh by the way...the 2nd anniversary of the new truck is June 13!  Hmmmm.

Hopefully keeping the truck running for another month..."Ain't Life Grand!"
