Hey Gary.... Im really chuffed for you!!! I know you have been through the wringer but you are a strong guy and you made it. Ive been off the ball recently too but back on it and really must get down to see you soon!
I know how you feel. I (finally) split up from my ex last July on the day I had a total knee replacement. Friends helped me through it and having spent 6 months in my mates box room, I retired and managed to buy myself a nice little flat here in Birmingham. Its not extravagant, but its mine and no one is taking it from me. No arguing (I haven't had a single argument with anyone since the day I left) and my relationship with my kids is better than when I lived in my marital home.
I had a conversation with Pete at the NEC last year and his profound and wise words will always be with me. He told me that happiness will not come along and slap you in the face, you have to seize the moment and turn opportunities into happiness. Well, I have been a VERY lucky man and have met a fantastic lady (Heather). She is totally on the same wavelength and loves life to the max (despite having her fair share of bad times in the past). Thank you Pete!!
Bottom line is no amount of grief lasts forever and life is what you make of it. Im hitting 50, happier than I have ever been and look forward to every day now instead of dreading them.
Well done Gary, cant wait to catch up and damn, that truck is a monster!!!
Cheers Steve

Right. Here we go then.
Bought this last August. Went to view an 08 hemi truck , black quad cab , to replace the last Ram.
Saw this , and thought " sod it ".
It won't be a keeper. It's far to spiteful as a daily , but it don't half put a grin on your face. It's just so brutal. Expected it to be quick , and it is , but mental. Love it
