    Your first rides

    1991 Ford Aerostar mini van. Yes, I know you all wish you could have been as cool as I was. The best part was the fact that I knew where the first bumps where from my house and from school because you had to hit one to get the AC fan to break loose and start turning.

    HUMAN CAUSED GLOBAL WARMING, THINK IT'S A FACT??

    Yeah, and in a few years they will come back and say trans fats are actually good for you. Just like they can't decide whether or not being fat is REALLY bad for you or if high cholesterol is really as big a factor in heart problems as they thought. Read health magazines, one month caffeine is...

    I could not help it

    Can you make it in chrome for Bama?

    Gun Control

    That's why I can't wait to get back to Texas. In Texas, if some guys are robbing your NEIGHBORS house, you can run out there and pop them with your 12 gauge. I know this because it happened in Pasadina a few months ago. Of course there are some other aspects of the area that are working to...

    HUMAN CAUSED GLOBAL WARMING, THINK IT'S A FACT??

    I tried to reply to this one but after I read my post, I realized it was a little political so I pulled it. What I will say is that, as the globe has gotten warmer, there have been considerably less hurricanes that in 2005. As a matter of fact, they have overestimated the numbers for 2006...

    What's this???

    I know I'm a little late on this one but A BAG HOOK!!!! Who do they think they are marketing these trucks to. At least they put it on the correct side of the dash. I'm going to have to get something to fit there as well. She can hold her bag in her lap!

    97 F350 sell or rebuild?????

    Go hit up some junk yards and see what you could find. Any amount of work would still be cheaper than buying a new one. I've got an '06 and I'll do the same thing when the body starts rusting out on it.

    Almost forgot

    This is what she looks like as a result of my efforts and a few months of looking at aftermarket parts. Waiting proved to work out in my favor and I couldn't be more pleased. Seven hours after the first jack stand went under, I ended up with this.

    Check out the results of my Super Bowl Sunday.

    My pre-game consisted of a little fishing on my favorite flat. The reds took a while to get there but they finally showed up. This pics might make you jealous.

    I'm back!

    I can't remember where I found that picture but it sure is a good one. If you look real close you can see that diesel was $1.19 a gallon when they were making diesel fried chicken. I'm sure ULSD fried chicken doesn't go down as smooth.

    Differential work quote

    I'm going to get a few quotes before I buckle down on something. There is a diesel performance shop somewhere around here and I'll go talk to that guy. He doesn't do diffs so he wont try to make up a bunch of stuff. Besides, he probably would recommend a place to do the work anyway. The guy...

    Differential work quote

    I have never had to get much work done on any vehicle so I don't know how much things cost. I need to get 4.10 gears installed because of the 35" tires. The mileage is all goofed up and the truck has to work harder. I want to get the strain off of the tranny and get the boost pressure back...

    I'm back!

    Its been a while since I've been on here but I'm back. I think it was before Christmas since I've been here last. I just got busy and lazy, not at the same time of course. Since I was on here last I put a lift kit on and it looks great. I should get the pictures here soon. Most of my...

    gear ratio stuff

    Can somebody help me figure out what gear ratio to change too? I have the 3.73 and just put 35" tires on and, as expected, my gas mileage took a dump. I was thinking of 4.10 or 4.30. I just want to get the RPM back to 2000 at 70 MPH. I figure that would get the mileage close to before and...

    Fuel Tank

    I think diesel is up because of the demand for heating oil right now. I wouldn't be suprised if it dropped below gasoline during the summer again.

    Our first gig...

    After 5 months of looking for a bass player, we finally found one. Not only that, but we seem to have landed a pretty good size venue for a first show. Now before some of you guys hitch up the ol' fifth wheel and head out here I need to tell you that we might not be the kind of music you want...

    Mod day on Friday...

    It's been a long wait but I finally have the lift I ordered two months ago and some time to put it on the truck. For those who don't remember; Donahoe Racing 4.5" lift with Pro Comp Wheels and Pro Comp All Terrain 35/12.50's. I can hardly wait to get started. If anyone has some pointers about...

    has anybody installed upfitter switches

    Are these just two position switches (i.e. on/off) or can they be three way switches? The website didn't talk about that I don't think.

    Fog lights...

    Are the wires for the fog lights installed on a truck that does not have fog lights? If they are I should be able to replace the headlight switch with one that has the fog light control and just connect up the fog lights, right? I'd rather do this than waste an upfitter switch on the fog...

    Tires & wheels for 4" lift

    I spent about 4 months on this before I made a purchase. For any wheel that you buy with an 8 on 170 bolt pattern, it will have the correct backspacing being that there is only one type of vehicle that I know of that it would go on. That is something that you shouldn't worry about. As far as...

    Tail Gunner, is your dog this lazy

    This one is the best though. Sorry about putting up so many pictures but I can't help it. I love my dog.

    Tail Gunner, is your dog this lazy

    Well, this was the peak of lazy from my dog. This was the day I got her after she flew on a plane from Ohio. After she got up from that nap, she hasn't stopped moving since. I have to put her in the crate whenever I need to clean the house or do something on the computer. Ironmerganser might...

    smoke when started

    I get a bit of white smoke on a cold morning until the engine warms up and it seems to be normal. The coolant level isn't going down at all it just spits out while smoke for a bit. I don't feel good about it but there aren't any other signs that anything is wrong.

    Its been a while...

    Well I've been busy these days and haven't spent much time on the internet so I haven't checked in to see what is going on around here. I've been deviding my time between work, the girlfriend and, most importantly, fishing. I guess I'm lucky that she likes to go. She gets bored quickly but...

    Navy Day!!

    I've been in since March 2001. I'll be getting out in 2010. Spent four years in Hawaii on the USS Key West (SSN 722) and am now training students.
