Of course, I haul everything with the Ex, so it is absolutely applicable to the forum.


Nice! Did you talk with a store manager to get them or just the construction worker?

I personally love those 4x4 Vans if it were Diesel I would get rid of my pickup. I love Excursions too hence wife has one and we have had 3 so far but something about that Off-Road Van I love it

Great picture!

I love old bands, when they actually had bands. Now days there is way to much "singer and a computer" and the singer without a computer to correct everything and make the band sound like a saturday night drunk karaoke singer.

Never saw it until a few hours ago.

Much like Dave Grohl, Jimy Hendrix, and a few others...a musical genius.

"Purple Rain" is an operatic ballad similar to "Stairway to Heaven" and "Free Bird".
