I'm glad he didn't. That truck looks awesome just the way it is.

My 97 used to be two-tone, and I like it alot more with one solid color.

im never on here anymore unfortunately just dont have the time

Bought my own place 6 months ago 4 months before my 22nd b day

house is small, built in 2000 and has a 30x40 barn on it, sitting on 5.25 acres

absolutely love it

graduated school, and drive a semi for fedex express now, with plans to get in the garage eventually. wanted my CDL anyways, and they pay for all of it so figured why not. i am a fully endorsed Class A CDL holder

my 4 year anniversary with the company was a couple months ago

still have this truck, it gets used alot, always hauling something i feel.

Built a 2000 Excursion that is Compound Turbo 12v p pump cummins and 5 speed manual makin lots of horseys and booooost

Have my mustang still and a few other trucks

HAve two new Rotts now, Had to put my last one down, these two are sisters and they are doin great, picked em up at 8 weeks old, they are now about a year and a half

also putnew wheels and tires on this truck
16x12 mickey thompson classic 1s, with 375/45/16 i think. or a 375/65/16 cant remember they are 33' tall and 15.50 wide

Good to hear from you brother. Don't worry about the delay, we know life goes by quick.
You'll enjoy the garage once you get it setup.
Keep at it. Post when you can.

Awhile again

Hey guys. Been awhile again.

life update:
Achieved my goal two years ago with Fedex and was hired on at 22 as a diesel mechanic. The next youngest guy in our district with 20 mechanics is 40.

I am coming up on the 7 year mark of being with Fedex when fall comes


im now 24 soon to be 25 in June

I have been really busy with projects and life

I got married in June of 2019 and she is now the beautiful mother to my son who is 4 months old

we spent two weeks in kauai Hawaii for our honey moon and it was awesome

still at the same house but have made some changes to my shop and really enjoy having it

excursion is sold. It lives in Georgia now. But I have another one that’s a Powerstroke.

Still have the mustang and the 97. The 97 needs some work as I’ve let it sit from using my newer trucks

the mustang I did a cobra front end on and a cowl hood

uncle still has his trucks and he is doing well too

still have the Rotts and have two Australian shepherds now. The black one was my wife’s before we were dating. The white one I proposed to her with.

I know it’s been forever not even sure if some of you are still on here but figured I’d drop in.

hope all is well with everyone
