    Do you really want me backed in, beside you, on a cold night and morning?

    O.K.-I made a N.Year's resolution to not annoy people next year.Why am I posting here? I have decided to "nose in" to someone else "nosed in". Maybe I can now become a card holding member of the 'Nose N & Annoy N' Club. :)

    I wonder if Blanche is in N.M.? Extra points if that's him..:biggrin_2559:

    No. I'm still at home due to not getting a load today.

    Used to drive a older rig that had a silver 92 Detroit in it, had to bring the motor up to around 1100 rpms when it was very cold out at night. I bet one thing, no one would whine if they had me beside them and nosed in, that motor had a sound of it's own.

    Ah yes, the old "Two Stroke Joke", nothing like the sound of a screaming 318 with 4 inch straight stacks!

    That would had been the b model KW LOL with a two stick trans, I was promoted to the big dawg that was six inch straights and a 8v92.

    Either way my left ear has lost a good bit of hearing from those.

    That's a pretty dumb comment to make, some of these idiots out here are absolutely ignorant when it comes to how loud their trucks are. 1500+ rpm driving through the parking lot with straight pipes isn't cool at all.
