I am going to tow the vehicle down to the autoskills shop that just reopened on post so I can use a tow strap to get it there. They have every tool you could think of and it is only 6 dollars an hour and I can keep it there over night for 3 dollars a night. So that should be fun if I can scrounge 1 or 2 freinds to come help me with it I just might be able to get it done over a weekend.

Only thing I can not do there is change fuel filters and drain tanks...so I'm going to have to do that in the parking lot at work (LOOKING FOR IDEAS HERE)

Now I just have to work out getting the truck and hurry up the transfer of title to my name and VIOLA...I might just be on the road in no time.

I'm going to be making a list of parts I'm going to need to bring with me. When I'm done feel free to make any suggestions.
$6 an hour? The base I'm at is $4 with a lift bay, $3 for a regular bay. Dunno how much overnight though. Why can't you change fluids there? They should have some catchers. Heck, what's the point of an Auto Shop if you can't perform the most common vehicle task (oil change) there?
