What is on your not-to-do list for 2009? (Ends: 01/04/09)

[TDRadmin]

OK, 2008 was . . . how shall we say . . . a challenging year for everyone. So maybe it is time to do something a little bit different.



Instead of asking you what you ARE going to do in 2009, let's post what we ARE NOT going to do in 2009. These should be interesting.



For example, "I'm <u>not</u> going to put gas in my diesel this year. Nope, not going to do it again. Not even once. Been there, done that. "



What is in it for you? Well let's take 2008 out with a bang. The winner will win a $250 gift certificate to Geno's Garage. Now that will go a long way in making up for anything you did not get from Santa that you wanted!



Deadline for posting is January 4, 2009. Winner will be selected and posted no later than January 5, 2009.



Good luck!

I am NOT going to visit my in-laws next year -- because they have been in my house for over 30+ days/nights this year -- and mildew is not one of my favorite scents.

 

[FosterW]

I'm NOT going to send my truck through the automatic car wash in 2009! Not this coming year, or any year for that matter!

 

[jgillott]

I'm not going to let my truck sit because of fuel prices this year. I bought it to use and enjoy and that is exactly what I am going to do.

 

[MA2LA]

I'm not going to forget to turn up the brake controller after I've loaded the trailer (my foot hurt after trying to push the brake pedal to the floor and the ABS had a different idea

 

[Missouri Mule]

I'm not going to blow a front tire on my Frieghliner this year the damage to the truck hurt the wallet. ( The tire did all the damage. )

After spending 16 months tied up in a very ugly divorce I can say that my 2009 "Not To Do" List is topped with NOT GET MARRIED. Santa just gave me that been there-done that t-shirt and its one I care not to receive again for a while. . LOL... ... . Andy

No stinking diet For 09

Will not start another new year's resolution Concerning any type of diet, nope not again, been there done that for the last time,That's the reason why I bought a 1 ton truck to carry my rear end around. My truck and I have something in common, we both have large rear ends :-laf

If I had a dollar for every TDR member who said they were not going to dump a boat load of cashola into their new trucks I'd be a rich man. I have yet to figure out where that line gets crossed but,once its tripped over wallet look out!. Nice try,we all know better:-laf:-laf:-laf.
