Sound's fishey , I have never pick up a tie off the road way , Now the guy I bought these from could be a different story . he was rat packing them for a retaining wall / planter box . all I know is I bought them for 3.00 a piece compared to 15.00/20.00 and my Grandson and I loaded them on our Car Trailer hauled them home and unloaded in place to drill the hole . I'm to old for that kind of work but had to show the Whipper snapper that this old man could still out do him

Good morning Nor Cal. Hope everyone has a blessed day!

Stewart, you're welcome.

Scott, don't hurt yourself proving how young you are.

Weather has been great here the past few days. I'm loving it.

Can't believe the Raiders won a game! Didn't even know until yesterday. I don't have ESPN so I couldn't have seen the game on Thursday.

I've been saying it all season. The Raiders aren't a bad team this year, they've just had some bad luck. They have the toughest strength of schedule in the league and have put up points against some good teams.

Got my water pump changed in the 7.3 this weekend and I'm packing right now to head for Idaho. My grandpa just moved up there a few months back so we're doing a little Thanksgiving there and my uncle and I will do some hunting since we're in whitetail country.

Putting new tires on at 10 tomorrow and then heading for the hills!

Jim, your truck is safe. My son purchased a '90 F150 4x4 regular cab with a 302/5.0L engine earlier this evening.

Thanks again.
