The guy lost his job a couple of weeks ago, and couldn't find anybody to buy it............Three months ago I bought a foreclosed home for my daughter and son-in-law that was listed for $189,000. I paid $82,000 cash for it.
Hey, Don!.......I could use a loan!!......Possibly adopt my family?

Sorry Dave....... Son-in-law lost his job at Fleetwood in Pendleton last week, looks like I'll be helping the daughters family for awhile.

Fleetwood closed 15 of it's 17 plants. Nobodys buying new RVs now.

Hope he can find another job soon, 3 kids and another on the way..........

Morning all, now I really know what it's like on the wet side, I'm over at my sons home in Portland. I have classes all week end over here. Stoped by and meet Jack, aka Ford Ranger, in Sandy on my way down from the moutian. We had a good vist.
If you have the money, now is a good time to buy, I see houses listing in Prineville for under 100k for the first time in years.

Ok. I'm done being ticked off. Don was right, I snapped a bit after getting hit continually for the past month or so. I couldn't seem to post any info, or opinion, or anything without getting stomped on, because it was more pertinent to original trucks than the custom rigs. Anyhow, I'm ready to come back, and as soon as this danged bad weather clears up, I'll have new pictures of the semi. Hey kj, I wasn't cracking. I guess as a former military man, I still have a tendancy to use abbreviations. ACL was short for assistant chapter leader. Other than that, it's all good. No hurt feelers here, actually, you guys/gals, and a couple others, are the reasons I keep coming back. Hey, Don, and few others that are aware, after almost three years, we are approaching the end of the BS from when my mom got killed. Looks like October is going to be when we go to court, and it's gonna take about 4-5 days, in front of a jury and everything, unless insurance settles before then. Anyhow, talk at you all later.

Yeah, that always right thing don't fly all that well here either. I'll agree, it' hard to believe it's been three years, seems like it just happened. Are there more big trucks in your area? After I get this big ole big thing going, and get her finished, I think I am going to entertain offers after a few months of showing it off. I want to build another one. I already have the next one planned out, and the first one isn't even finished.
