I'm waiting on a '17 Ruby Red Crew Cab 4x4 to arrive, ordered Aug. 1st, if that matters to anybody

 

I may end up being an alcoa employee again. This split has been a mess, and there is still a lot left to iron out here. The can metal is profitable here for the first time in a long long time, and things in Saudi Arabia are a nightmare. Alcoa can't get enough can metal. Hint the reason the smelters reopened in Warrick. Who knows what's going to happen here at the south plant, right now we are still casting can metal for alcoa. The automotive metal is making very good money at the north plant. We have a lot going for both sides, but a very uncertain future. Crazy.

. except for the fact we are making super duty metal.

 

And F 150 too

 

We all like seeing new trucks! Post up picks when it arrives in 8 weeks!

 

Since it's quiet in here I'll add that I got my VIN# yesterday.

 

Mine is supposed to be built 8/28

 

If I am reading my paper correctly - my build day is 09/08.

 

2 new trucks to get pictures of, Sweet

 

I hope one of them is race red.

 

I just ordered a new set of 295/70/18 Michelin Defenders to replace my 35x1250x20 Yoko's.

 

Made it through the Eclipes and is getting new Shoes, Nice

 

I received my vin last Friday but do not have a build date, only a delivery date of Oct.1

 

Just got some new boots...they are called CAT clear cut....I always like to get the logger style




I think they are really Wolverine because that's where they drop shipped from

 

i do not wear "waffle stompers", they collect and track way too much mud in the trucks and house for my my tastes.

 

I wouldn't buy a boot WITHOUT the "waffle stomper" tread. I need to have good grip when I'm walking and that style of tread is the only way to insure that. I've had good luck with Cat brand boots and I like the looks of those
