thats cool rob,
my mom or i have never had or bought anything brand new ever. the last truck i bought was an 95 dodge and it got repossesed though to no fault of mine. i was making the payments through a my ex-girlfriend and she was pocketing the money and not making the payments. they came and got it in the middle of the night.

yeah jerry,
you have to be otherwise they won't hire. sometimes you have to pester them to get it. that shows them you need a job. and you want it. years ago they called it begging but not now a days it not. its called aggressive pursuement! even in the right to work state that we live in! or right to hire states. this is my opinion right to work to me means they have to hire you! right to hire is the opposite! in any case PESTER THEM! i'm going to! regardless if it right to work state. i think thats BS!

hello guys, how's everybody doing? that's a nice mustang Rob, i would have never guessed a 4.0 could put out that many ponies...my 4.2 in my 99 f150 always seemed so gutless...

it proved to be a pretty rough drive from hastings last night...took off at 11 at night into a substantial head wind and then blew out a tire when i was coming into clarks...finally got a friend in cbus woke up and he brought me a tire, but all in all, didn't get home till 4 in the morning!

also learned the hard way to not go to walmart to get your tires worked on...swear to God those ppl don't kno their **** from a hole in the ground!

Eveniing Kenny. thought I was off for the night, but maybe not! Hey, what do you expect from Wally world, all the guys that work there are making minimum wage. No experience neccesary! Sucks about your tire, though! Hey, your still coming next sunday, and dragging Jake with you, right?? After all, I haven't had a chance to buy you a beer since you've become 21!!

Hey,just for my own curiosity, if your there, find out what that Fairlane, the 67 I think, goes for. If you can get Jake strapped to the hood, and If I can get a pic, you won't have to buy a beer all day, they'll be on me!!
