    Parental words of wisdom

    When I was 10 years old, my Grandfather and I were talking and I told him that Grandma was wrong about something she said. Grandpa then said to me: When she is right she's right, and when she's wrong she's right. It took me years to learn what he meant. " When Grandma speaks, we listen and...

    Parental words of wisdom

    My Grandfather was the wisest man I ever knew. He was born in 1901. At 8 years old, he was helping his father spread hay, and he was poked in the eye with a pitchfork, and lost his eye. By the time he was ready to go back to school he was way behind and dropped out in the sixth grade to help out...

    Fuel prices coming down

    $3.999 this morning. That was the target price I was waiting for. I have not needed to drive our PSD, and could wait until it goes down more, but I want to fill our auxiliary tank before winter hits, so the tank does not get water in it due to condensation. We keep our main tank topped off...

    NFL a league of gentlemen ???

    No one said it was. But some of these guys don't have either. What they do have is a lack of moral values.

    NFL a league of gentlemen ???

    An IQ of 100 is average. You would think that these "College Graduates" could muster a 100 IQ. Some of them can not read or write, but they can catch a ball and run fast. Same thing in Professional Basketball. The question is; what adds up to a 100 IQ? The answer is: The defensive line for...

    NFL a league of gentlemen ???

    Not a good idea. With a IQ test, that would require a triple digit IQ, they would not be able to assemble 11 guys to play. The whole team would consist of quarterbacks. No running backs, no receivers, no defensive linemen. The offensive line does need to think, but probably not three digits worth.

    Fuel prices coming down

    Have you noticed now that Labor Day weekend is gone, the price of fuel has gone down. It is $4.089 here now for Diesel. It was $4.23 on the weekend. Strange coincidence. :watchout

    Watch out for crazy 18 wheelers...

    Wow,,, I would say that you are here by just a couple of inches. As others have said, you can replace "my truck", which we all know how you feel when we buy and pamper our trucks, but you are still among us, and that was way to close. You might want to say a extra thank you when saying your next...

    Alliance Against Urban 4x4s

    I have been on this earth a long, long time, and have seen over the years how far people will go to impose their will and rules on others. We call them nut cases, but actually they are mostly zealots that will take their beliefs to the extreme. They are no better than terrorists and should be...

    13mpg with mods... is that as good as it gets??

    13 mpg might be just about right for your modifications, if you have a heavy right foot. It would be interesting what mpg we could get if Ford made a front air dam and a lowering kit. I would not want to raise or lower our truck, but for maximum mpg, lowering with a air dam would be...

    13mpg with mods... is that as good as it gets??

    GAS Mileage??? Are you pulling our legs or did you mean fuel mileage? Do you have a dually? Most automatic 6.0 with 3.73 gears and 4x4 srw are getting around 17 mpg. Manuals get over 18 mpg.

    Stroker sighting!!!

    If you hold others to your standards, you will be disappointed most of the time. Back in 1980 we sold a like new 1976 Granada to one of our nieces. We had extra cars and she had nothing and very little money. It took one year before the car was taken to the junk yard. I found out she had not...

    How good are the 5 speed trannies?

    As I stated above, I really like our manual transmission, but when we were in Oklahoma, I got food poisoning, and had to lay over for three days, because my wife could not drive the manual. Since then I have taken her out and taught her how to drive the truck, "not smoothly" but at least she can...

    Nice Bama; They are fun to watch, plus the fresh eggs are tasty. Over the years we have had cows, sheep, ducks, chickens, and by far chickens are less maintenance. :sweet

    How good are the 5 speed trannies?

    Not so fast Trackspeeder; If you have written the above just to get a response, then you have succeeded. If you believe what you have written, then you have not driven one. Automatic transmissions have more parasitic drag than manuals which means that given the same vehicle, less the...
