Welcome aboard. We can always use another 54 owner in here.

Can we assume you're a darksider? (Cause we can always use more dark siders too)

Put up pix of the 40 in your gallery as well, we do admit to comming here to look at the pictures as well as the articles!

Welcome... "the darkside appears strong with this one" ... I also am quite fond of your truck and when I grow up, which my wife claims will be never, I hope to have one of my very own
