    My grandma gave my husband a CB older than me, but it quit. He would have had a CB at Western, but we couldn't afford it and bills on what they were paying him! Some day he might make enough to get a new one, an inverter, & a fridge for the truck he'll get at the new company. At less we'll have health insurance.

    Striike 1 ...
    Steriike 2 ...
    Steriiike 3 !! ... .... Y'all wrong .... it's a tint. Can any of y'all show me a Color ? .. Or a Hue ? ..... blairandgretchen got a point there with shades. There's so many kinds a' shades. Window Shades alone come in just about any tint ever invented. However, Shade can also just be a spot out of direct light, so it's not eggzactly right either. A Tint on the other hand can be any tint at all. And I can show y'all a Tint, unlike a Color or a Hue ....... See ? ..... [​IMG] lots a tints even though it's just one tent ...
    um .... not eggzactly but I'm hopin' y'all fall for it .... :p

    What exactly is so bad about being able to run power without burning fuel?

    Other than you being old and missing the old days where you would go down to the diner and get a chocolate malt before the big barn dance
