They look good but the green one is a 52 not a 51.

What?!! I'm buying a truck?!!! News to me.

Chris just wants to get back at me for getting him into trouble with his wife with the two trucks I found for him to buy.

This must mean another road trip, let's leave the dogs home this time and let's try to find a motel room this time, (Duane, keep your thoughts clean) these turn and burn trips kind of wear me out, I'm getting too old for them.

Hey Bob - suck it up and go buy the darn truck already! You can always sleep in your shop if Chris kicks you out of the room. (Not that there's anything wrong with that.)

Chris, remember, you weren't the original person with the lead on this seller of this truck. I was, although he had a beat up panel and the '52 at the time, so I actually initiated this purchase.

I'm still two to your one so I'm leading in the enabler race and I don't have any fear of losing. I don't have access to the $$$ like you so I'll find them and send them to you to buy

Chris's friend wants the Manure Grill, I still have some taste

I'm not worried about Chris, I'm more concerned about sleeping in my bed in my house. Although the wife seems OK with my latest, crazy plan. We'll see how it turns out. I have a set of fender almost ready for this truck.

The problem with our road trips is we don't sleep. At least not a lot. It's hard to sleep with Chris's snoring and sleep talking and his dog slobbering all over. Chris's driving does get the heart pumping though.

I don't know about the most qualified, maybe the most mentally deranged.
