Anyone happened by "TRUCKVILLE" lately? I think the "New Mayor" is ugly, and probably won't be in office too much longer.

:P he he

Maybe they say "Just Push Play" because they know they CAN'T hold a candle to Ford in the work department!

Sort of funny, but glad nobody got hurt.

The Aerosmith concert in Birmingham, Al was cancelled last night due to "mechanical difficulties". Not good to have "mechanical difficulties" when you tour sponsor is a "truck"

As they were setting up in the BJCC civic center (12,000 seat arena) the large scoreboard over the floor (used for basketball and hockey) fell to the floor when a cable broke. This is one of the large 4 sided scoreboards like you see in most arenas.

The story here:

My boss and a good friend both bought 2002 Ram Quad cabs. I think the truck is sharp but could see how it could be ugly too. Too bad it's made by Dodge. Same old drive train. They really need to bump up the power.

I thought the new Super Duty design was ugly when it first came out.(Now I wish I had designed it.)
The new "Mayor" kinda grows on ya too. I guess when you get older you reach that point where you realize the fact that they are all good.(& bad too) It's just a matter of what you want to drive.

I believe Chrysler had hemis in production cars (the early hemi like the 392) long before the 427 SOHC motor. Of course, I don't know if they were first. Also, yes, there is a hemi returning to Chrysler's lineup, but it's not derived from the 392 or the 426, it's a modern peanutized (shrunken, tiny, etc.) engine. For that matter hemi combustion chambers are common in foreign cars and have been for some time.
