Hello Timber,
Thank you for posting that.
I was thinking of answering him, but I wanted to respect his request that I do not reply,
to him.
Because respecting others requests is the right thing to do.
True, I am down at the moment, but in this economy I am trying to do the best I can.
I have a family to take care of, but I only make so much now, that it is hard to
remember or keep up with everything some times.
Also, I was not born a rocket scientist. So I do not know it all, I am learning what
I can about my M1009 as I go.
I do try to read the TM's, but since I was not in the military,
(but I tried to join the military because I wanted to repay my country for what they have done for me,
but they turned me down.),
or ever in a class/classes that taught me how to read them, sometimes they can be a bit difficult.
I got my M1009 because I needed something tougher than what I was driving,
something that has 4 wheel drive, can hold my family, dog, and cargo.
As well as be more inexpensive to register, insure, repair, maintain, and fuel up.
Also, something that was made the way they used to make cars,
so that way I can do repairs myself, instead of running it to a shop whenever
something breaks.
As for running out of fuel, the fuel gauge does not work yet, it will after I fix it.
I know how to fix it, I read how in the TM's, I just have not had the time yet.
As for jump starting, I tried the different ways people here told me, and nothing
seemed to work right away, eventually it got worked out.
As for insurance, with working & concentrating so hard on just keeping a roof,
over the head of my family & I, sometimes it is hard to remember or keep up,
with other bills, especially with how much I make even though I work at least
40 hours a week.
As for knowing if I needed a tag light, when I got the vehicle, I tried to find out
if I needed one, I even asked a tag office rep. if I needed one, and she did not know.
My apologies for replying with such length, I just wanted to thank you and let you know
where I was coming from.
By the way, I have seen so many posts from people here asking for help,
without ever getting the kind of response you replied about.
If it were me, and I saw someone in trouble, I would go out of my way to help them.
And I have done so, many times in the past in my life.
Thank you, Good night, God bless you,
CJ
