Standing Proud

At the g2g in Emporia, Undertakr brought his laptop along to show us some pictures of a few vehicles that he had seen at a recent car show. One of them was a Stainless Steel GT, but IMO, the vehicle that stole the show was a F-350 that was dedicated to our fallen troops. By chance, I recieved an email this morning with a video of that same truck from Car Crazy on the Speed channel and I wanted to share it with all of you.

The link to the video is at the bottom of the page.

Tony, i feel so lucky to have seen this truck in person. It really made me stop and think about all that has happened and who have fought to protect us. Im glad that i got to take pics of it in person and will save them forever. If anyone else gets the chance to see it in person, i know they will feel the same as i do after seeing it.

With all you hear against the war in Iraq and against the soldiers it is nice to see something like this come along once in a while. I think people forget the soldiers are there to do a job that they were ordered to do and they are there to protect us. It doesn't matter if you agree with the politics or not we should all support the troops.

Nice truck. I agree with Carl that it's nice to see someone actually supporting the troops instead of just ******* the war. Also, I'd like to add that Iraq is not the only place we have troops serving.

Nice Truck, I agree that we should support the troops serving, no matter where they are stationed. I think the people that don't support our troops have lost sight of the freedom we all share and enjoy every day and don't see we're trying to help others earn their freedom. Just my honest opinion, i don't want anyone to get the wrong idea but what i post, we all have our own opinions.
