    I bought one of these shirts years ago out in Texas when I was OTR. I took it to a tshirt shop and had it remade for me and the kids.

    You can't claim to be a trashy truck driver unless you wear "trashin fashion".

    @wore out When you get time, watch this one in its entirety. I’m curious if you’ve ever seen one grenaded to this extent.

    It’s a 6.7 Cummins. The number five cylinder threw a rod which is now completely missing, and it also sheared away the back 1/3 of the camshaft.

    Things like this are why I still run stock power on mine. 350 hp is plenty.

    They must have beat that thing like a rented mule. I have a '17 Ram 3500 in the shop now with a pretty hot tune in it. We're putting in it's fourth transmission. 250k on the odometer. These guys on the ranch are not gentle on these pickups.

    @0ldskoolernwv I could have gone a whole lifetime without seeing that. Even Clorox can clear that from your memory.
