Mine is from my in-laws. Denise and I inherited it back in the early 90s after her dad passed away. It’s been sitting out in my living room for about the past 10 years year-round. I’ve been asked why, I just tell them we all need a little Christmas every day of the year. Stay warm Roger. I hear that you guys are going into a deep deep freeze sometime this week. Be careful and Merry Christmas to you too

Merry Christmas Joe! We used to have one of those ceramic trees with lights, think I stuck my youngest sister with it years ago, told her it must be some kind of heirloom!

Merry Christmas all of you

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year everyone

This one will end up at the Joe, Jr’s house one day. Thankfully, he enjoys getting anything that came from his grandparents house. He truly loves to know the heritage of where his family came from. Makes me feel good to know that he wants to know who is family of the past was, and have things that came from them…..joe

My MIL made this small tree, about 10" high from the base, but also made a much larger one that has a base for the light socket, then three sections that fit together for a tree that's 12" around at the base, standing about 16" high. My daughter, our youngest of three, took it three or four years back. I think I put it up the first Christmas after Susan was gone, and my daughter took it for the next year. I'm not sure where this smaller one will find a home, but if neither of the boys move quick enough I expect that she will claim it too. It's indeed good when the kids care about the heritage, and where things started.

Merry Christmas, ya'll!

...and a Merry Christmas to you all and your families from Downunder.
I've got a lot of amusement and gleaned a lot of knowledge from all of you over the years, and I've thoroughly enjoyed it.

So there's good karma coming your ways from little Enzed.

Thanks for just being yourselves.

happy holidays everyone.

you know .. there is nothing anywhere that tells you where the MAP sensor is located on a Suzuki XL7 3.6 engine .. dont bother telling me where it is on every other GM 3.6 engine .. that aint where it is on my engine .. i have Googled and you tubed it to death and the only info is that it costs about $ 250 in labor to get it done so it must be hidden under the intake or so .. i dont know that mine is bad but i want to look at it .. the only issue i have with my XL7 is that bank 2 runs very rich .. my right side tail pipe is sooty and the left side is clean .. i have true duel exhaust as i deleted the crossover muffler a few months ago .. i have no codes related to the MAP .. i have used every injector cleaner known to man with no noticeable improvements .. i have replaced all the oxygen sensors front and back of the converter ,, the thing runs great it just bugs me that the right exhaust is so sooty ..

Self inflicted issue? I wonder if/when you deleted the cross-over you changed things enough to alter the fuel map to that one side??? Why would you delete it? It is beneficial in balancing the exhaust pulses. I think you made a mistake in removing it. my .02
