Red face Guess who's back.......

Although I'm not sure why.

How has everyone been? I'm sure I didn't miss much important.

Still don't own a Ford since I rolled my F-150. Damn, that been 3 years now. I had horrific experience in June. I had my lovely chromed out, chicken lighted Peterbilt 379 decide to burn into a charred pile of rubish on the side of US-74 just outside of Wilmington. But it's all good. Insurance kicked in & I was in a 2007 13 letter crap spreader just a few days later.

Come to think of it....


I haven't had much luck with the blue oval or the red oval. It's a conspiracy I tell ya. Ovals don't like me because I'm squared.....

You ain't gonna believe this....

But it actually has more room then my stretched 379 did.

I been driving a 379 for awhile & it has become normal for my knees to begin hurting after sitting for awhile. This International Eagle has cured that problem. I'm not sure how, but my knees have not been sore for about 6 months now(<-- Dutch, I left it open. But please don't go there ).

I turned 97,000 on the truck tonight. I'll have well over 100 thousand on it by Friday.

No, pics were the last thing from my mind.


The funny thing is lately I've been looking at buying a 1990 Ranger XLT with the long bed. I figure I may need to be closer to the ground so I don't roll it.
