For my fellow Ford enthusiasts:
CHEVROLET: Cracked Heads, Every Valve Rattles, Oil Leaks, Engine Ticks
DODGE: Drips Oil, Drops Grease EverywhereI've heard of folks buying used shipping/Conex containers. They bury all but one end under a berm and the end they don't bury has a 36" door cut into it. The smallest one I've seen on the used market was 102" (8.5') wide by 10' tall by 20' long. The 40' maybe allot cheaper since most shipping companies have been dumping them in favor of the 48' over the last couple of years. Shot, get the 40' and you'd have room for the truck in there with you

Went to the DFA to get a new license plate for the Pavement Princess since the original was MIA when I brought the truck home. Those crackheads set me back another $1.25 for a new plate. Wonder if I should turn that into my adjuster?
Are you sure it's Friday? It's my 3rd Saturday this week.

Good Morning All! 
On this Memorial Day weekend, lets' think about the brave men and women, who gave their lives so you could have your freedom.
Think about the families, who gave a son or daughter to that cause and think of all the people who are now free because of the sacrifices that American soldiers have made throughout history, many of them giving their lives for it.
Let's Celebrate Memorial Day for what it stands for and not as a 3 day holiday weekend. - "Garret Watson"

Since I'm going to be out of state for the next two weeks, I'll miss the ceremony at the Ft. Smith National Cemetery on Monday before the rodeo parade. It's not as impressive as laying of the wreath at Arlington...but the site of all the flags on the headstones will still bring a chill to your bones. The Confederate graves still get "Stars & Bars" while everyone else gets "Stars & Stripes". And too that I say kiss off NAACP/ACLU and anyone else that doesn't recognize the Confederate flag is about more than just salivary.
....I'll have to zing that one on a car buddy of mine.

Afternoon gentlemen. While we're picking on the "other brands"...one of the guys in the 6.0L has this in his signature:
"I hear that Dodge is giving you a puppy with every truck you buy, so you'll never have to walk home alone again."
Another member, who's name escapes me right now...on his avatar has a side-by-side comparison of the "ram head" logo and a certain part of the internal woman anatomy.
