Let's try to contain the excitement
I also don't want to hear about the truck being dirty. I took these at the boys football practice and I barely got them there on time!

Hello everyone. Thanks for the retirement wishes. Sorry I’ve been AWOL for a while. The “ballet” classes/sessions 2 days per week plus being busy as hell severely cut into my screwing off time. I’ll have plenty of time to get caught up after today tho. Plan on traveling & doing some things around the house. We have the party today starting g at noon so we won’t be doing a lot of actual work. Hope everyone has a great weekend! Catch you’uns on the other side!

Dirty? I don't see any dirt...you should see mine.
Hauling ATV’s and dirt bikes to the woods tomorrow so it will only get worse.

Luckily my project won’t take away from yours since yours is cooler but I did add Carhartt seat covers tonight.

This is how it all started for Sgt93. First smoke Recons, then a bad turbo, then you buy a Jeep.

Pretty sure they would get me for tint, mud flaps and needing fender flares too. That's why you have to get to know all of the cops and be known in your community as a volunteer so they don't see your driving your truck and assume you're a worthy candidate for an attitude adjustment.

I pull a Boy Scout trailer often enough that they know I'm alright or I coach their kids. Driving like a moron seems to give them a reason too, so I try to save that for in the country.
