    It's a lot like many other forums, some good folks , some bad and some just there to stir the pot. I hope Last Call comes back before too long . I enjoyed his posts and honestly I don't know what got him banned, he always seemed to tell it like it is but not to the point of starting a ruckus. Just my opinion.

    It’s not been washed or waxed yet, looks kinda bad still. Every one always says what you up to? Or something similar to which I always reply just a motor n. This brown truck is sorta temporary. Maybe permanent idk I may give mine to that kid of mine when I’m done

    So, before or after the W/W, is there an appointment with the motor department for upgrades, or, does this one already or almost meet your standards?

    Na we leaving it alone. It’s a really neat plucked outta 90’s time capsule. I won’t probably won’t ever get the black truck fixed. I kinda been sitting on some things that’s just how I am. 2nd of March we looked up and there was a wall across the road. A K&B reefer had missed the stop sign at 34 North and 400. His steers was across the white line on my right shoulder. His trailer was still on 34. We were 92 or 3 thousand and 60 miles per hour with absolutely no reaction time coming outta of curve in the dark. We’re fine, I felt my back draggin across the pavement then the grass cause the right door was all but drug off the truck. I know the what ifs the coulda woulda shouldas. My truck was held hostage in Dodge City by the tow yard cause of a #### insurance company named Cherokee. Even though my company had paid their part Cherokee didn’t and till total was paid they wouldn’t let any thing loose. Last week I took the brown truck and finally got mine home. You put a big piece of your self in these sonsabitches for some no good sorry m’fer to just….it’s fine nobody was hurt. It’s been hell idk it needs alot. If it were not for Gus I’d not made it through that. It’s still a open would and know you boys are concerned but we’re fine I’d rather not talk about it. Just act like it never happened. The last thing I wanna do is build another truck. I don’t even like the sonsabitches no more. But it’s what I know. Again boys were fine. Just GD hate this ####in world and all that’s in it
