HELLO! How is everyone?

Hi Gang!
Just thought I would pop in and say Hello!
See, I said I wouldn't forget about you all.
Cheers!

Hey Alex! How are things with you? Things here in the chapter have been moving along nicely (take a look at the members list thread, link is in the Welcome to the Ontario Chapter thread).

We are gearing up for the truck show in Arthur in August. Hopefully we will have many people from the Chapter there. Good to see you are still alive.

-Matt

Life is good. 79 is in storage (finally, drove it through the first snow storm of this current batch of snow to get it there) and new winter truck is mostly good too. Thinking of selling new winter truck to meet the needs of growing family.

Watch Out For Thin Ice....

You don't want to loose one of your classic sleds to the lake.
There is a thread about Car/Truck pooling to Arthur, so if you want to come along, check it out for a ride or passengers.

Well, after the 86 was done I had nothing else to do, so......

Now we need to get a (whispers) minivan

Or a 6 door Focus!

Isn't a 6 door Focus a minivan?

I think it would be more of a baby limo.

Somehow, I don't think there would be any way I could convince my wife that we should get a 79 Bronco and convert it to a 4 door. 4x4 and diesel of course. Especially hard to convince her when she'll be the one that has to take the kids everywhere.

Just buy her a crew cab F-250 Diesel and put a topper on the back. It would basically be an Excursion.

Diesel with her is a hard sell - I've already tried. She doesn't like the clatter or smell.

Sorry to hijack your thread, Alex.

Then get the V10. They rock.

And don't apologize. What kind of thread would this be if it wasn't detoured off course?

True enough. Al should be along with some obscure song lyrics any moment now.
