Hi everyone! I haven't been around much lately and see so many new faces. My absence was not planned nor intentional. Unfortunately we have had some medical issues to deal with concerning my husband but received news that from here on out things look good...VERY good. Proof that the power of prayer and well-wishes can work wonders. Joe is doing well, although recovering from a bout of walking pneumonia that caused us to miss a local show this past weekend. Poor guy was so bummed. My only other new development around here is my new wheels. I'm so excited! It's so much fun...with a Hemi and dual Borla exhaust the neighbors can hear me coming I originally wanted to get the Viper truck but couldn't bring myself to pay that kind of $$, not to mention the pitiful gas mileage that it gets. So I had fun tweaking this one to make it just the way I wanted it including changing out the hood. Can't live in Texas and NOT drive a truck! Jon made sure to have a heavy duty tow package installed as well...hmmm, I think he's planning on using it to tow home more project cars for him! He just can't seem to understand that the garage is FULL! Hopefully things have settled down enough around here that I wont be quite as scarce.
sorry to hear about the health issues - glad everyone is recovering well! that's a nice truck. good to have you back!
Hi Joesmom we have not met previously but would like to offer my best wishes for your Husband's speedy recovery Sounds like you have a mean set of wheels going on there LOL All the best De Orc
Thanks for the kind words guys, that means a lot. It sure is nice to be back. De Orc...nice to meet you as well. Yup, the truck is pretty bad-you-know-what And I'm proud to say that I haven't gotten a speeding ticket....YET I'll leave that to Jon...he's got a couple of corvettes that are going to get him into trouble one day.
Welcome back! I've kind of been in and out myself some and don't know if we've chatted before. I've definitely seen some of your posts though. I'm glad to hear that everyone is doing well. Nice truck too!
It's good to hear from you again, and will look forward to many more such occasions. The use of pickups in Texas, who ever heard of that? Trying to pull a fast one on us aren't you?
Yup...it's kinda fun. I told Jon that I'm reverting back to my redneck roots When I first met him I drove a little pickup and lived in rural Wisconsin. Then we grew up and got all responsible...suburbia and soccer games. Did the car thing, a BRIEF minivan fling (ugh) and then an SUV. Now I'm back to a truck and love it. I can haul all kinds of mulch and plants when I'm gardening and the nav system is pretty darn handy for tracking down those obscure coin shops and random shows that I've never been to .
I'm driving a van. The horn has a nice beep to it. Glad to hear that your husband is doing better. and your truck looks Ram tough.
I have been driving the same F-100 for 37 years, a working truck for 37 years. It should be in a Ford commercial.
home young lady. The trouble with those dark tinted windows is that try as hard as you can, you just can't see what's in the back window gun rack.
Welcome back. I joined the forum about 1 month before you took your hiatus, but enjoyed reading your posts...especially the Joe stories. I'm glad to hear everyone is doing fine and hopefully I'll have the opportunity to read more of your posts.
Thanks for the warm welcome back guys...I've really missed hanging around here. Looks like I've got a lot of reading to do to catch up a bit. Roy...thanks for the 'welcome home'. This really is home to me, didn't want y'all to think I deserted ya for another board
