Mark,did thoses have the half moon cut in the door.
I remember my great grand parents still had a out house in the back yard,they had every thing inside,just kept it for looks I guess.
No, and I'm not that damn old. I did not start framing until the late 60's, but thanx for the shot at humor. My grandmother did have an outhouse at her cabin in the Sierra Nevada's and a pump in the kitchen for running water though.
Dang....... Y'all are killing me. I hope nobody's outside my hotel room door -- they'll probably think there's a psycho in here. No comments, please -- that's just TOOOO easy....
So I had a very interesting day today. We had to go up about 500-1000' in elevation to where our "poor coverage" test area is. I'm REALLY glad I swapped to an Expedition from a minivan!!! So while we were tooling around, I noticed all the diesel trucks up there were either PSDs or CTDs. Nairy a D-max to be found. And a vast majority were 7.3s, too. Well, I did see a GMC D-max up there, but it was under a big bed camper and looked like it hasn't moved in weeks. LOL...
Then, we got down here where the "flat-landers" live, and I start seeing D-maxes everywhere. I was taking a mental tally, and by far, most of the Dodge/Chevy trucks here in the valley were gassers, where the Fords were nearly all diesels. However, I WISH I had my camera ready when we drove past the Dodge dealer. There were two guys standing on the sidewalk right in front of the dealer holding "Dodge Trucks are Lemons" signs!! I started chuckling and the other guys in the Expy were looking at me funny. One of the signs said something about the Dodge diesel too, but I wasn't able to absorb it all in such a short time (it was derogatory, though).
I took some more pics and a little video that I'll get posted a bit later. I'm still using my phone as my modem, so it's a bit of a PITA to do all this at the same time. Flying back to Texas tomorrow early, so I'm going to get a burger at In 'n' Out for dinner since I almost never get to go to one. Man, I LOVE their fries!! See y'all in a bit.

Wasn't saying your that old.Ok maybe I was you old fart.just kidding,I perrty sure you could work me in the ground in a day.
Well I like the Kodak you listed there Brandon but that is a down fall for me because that uses up batteries quick. I am thinking if I am at a diesel event I need some long battery life. I have a Kodak Easy Share DX4330 right now but its about 4 years old and really showing its age.
Justin, I think you ,misread my post. the SONY uses batts way too quickly.
The KODAK is a rechargeable Li-on batt and it lasts a good long time. PLUS with the KODAK you will get a USB cable that plugs into it and you can charge it from your computer,(or a car adapter). You can get an extra batt for $12 BestBatt.com - Kodak KLIC-7004 Li-Ion Rechargeable Digital Camera Battery to use while the other is charging in the truck.
EDIT: OOPS, I didnt read far enough down the page to where thats what you decided to do.
Thats why I am glad I have my 93 ranger to do my little run arounds in.
You all are going to flip at my next statement.
I am thinking of getting my uncle's 87 K20 chevy for going back and forth between school and home during the winter.
I wont lie i miss my 85 k30 454 4x4.... Not comparng it to my PSD... But it was nice to get the random itch to go 4 wheeling and do so... I wont do that in my PSD because i dont want to **** it up... I didnt care about my chevy in that way to i would just go rally it...
Great to hear the PSDs are in great numbers out there and that is hilarious about the dodge dealer LMAO they need to post that everywhere :-p. What exactly are you doing out that way anyways.

I was just looking at the pictures of the camera and noticed that it was a full screen so I figured it would drain its power supply quick. I always use recharge able batteries for the most part. I really like the price I found on it but Brandi really likes this Nikon Coolpixs 550 but I am not to crazy about it.

Get a ranger Jacob you'll love it, its great on gas and atleast you don't have a bowtie on there . You can get them for fairly cheap and they last for ever a 167 on mine.
Man what a long day, woke up at 6. WBC was gonna fly me home to saskatoon today through this other city, calgary. So i wake up go to the airport in edmonton, and find my flight is cancelled. Next flight they can get me on was at 5 this afternoon, goes all the way to vancouver bc (2 provinces over from mine) then to saskatoon! plus it lands at 1 am in the morning sask time haha. So i turned that one, and drove all the way back home today.
So that was me in edmonton for one day, to drive back home today, go to a doctors appointment tomorrow (with my surgeon) then go back to edmonton on thursday morning, just to work out thursday afternoon, and friday morning, then drive all the way back home for the weekend again, leaving on friday afternoon!
Geesh I think they are trying to frustrate the hell outta me, and they are succeeding! Least they pay for everything.

This truck will be my beater rig so I can keep the PSD nice for hanging out with friends or longer trips.

The only reason I want to get the K20 is because I can probbably get it cheap. One random thing about the truck is it has a solid front axle.
Ive got two digital cameras
the first one I bought in NY city a few years ago while at the Macys Thanksgiving Day Parade, it is a Sony Cyber shot 6.1 MP and I have a 1 gig stick. It uses batteries quickly, but takes decent pics.
The other camera I won in a sales contest. It is a Kodak Easyshare V1233, it is a 12.0 MP High Definition camera with a 3x zoom, I have a 16GB stick for it, and it shoots 30 frames per second in video mode. Very high quality video. The only thing I dont like about it is that there is no view finder. you can only see what you are shooting on the LCD screen. I looked it up on Kodaks site and it is going for $199. The mem stick I have set me back about $60, but it is worth it to be able to shoot as many pics as I want in the highest possible definition, without having to stop and download to my computer. My HD TV has a memory stick port so I can pop in the stick and view through my photos on my 42" HD TV. My daughters friends thought it was very cool to see all their pics on the TV after a scavenger hunt.
Battery life is not terrible, and it is a rechargeable Li-on batt, I have a Mini USB cord that plugs it to my computer to recarge it when needed.
I've got the Sony Cybershot but with rechargeable batt.. I only charge it about once a month
