mowerman Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Well, I’ve made a lot of mistakes of my time if I could go back and do it all over and pick the right routes I would be signing up for it now I used to hear older fellows when I was a real young guy saying the same thing. I wish we could start over and know what we know now didn’t quite know if they were talking about now that I’m old. I see what they were talking about. sorry Larry it seems to keep going off rail ha ha ha I know you probably don’t care that’s all interesting conversation. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75768-300-rebuild/page/41/#findComment-595340 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoff Weeks Posted 4 hours ago Share Posted 4 hours ago Paul, I would agree with that! What we don't know is how long we have left. My Aunt is 99 and sharp as a tack, and still active. My friends father worked 3rd shift until he was forced to retire at 65 and was dead before 66. Genetics has a place in it, but is not the total picture. 2 Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/75768-300-rebuild/page/41/#findComment-595341 Share on other sites More sharing options...

True no one knows how long is left.My best friend passed away at just 46 of brain cancer 18 years ago leaving a beautiful wife and 3 great children behind.On his death bed he made me promise Id live life to the full.So if its tomorrow or 20 years time thats what I intend to do......
