Hey Thorton, By the looks of it, you need a single or double cab to show the neighbors what a real truck is! _________________ It's not about the window, it's about the people.

I've been telling him that for a long time... dude wont listen.
I like to go to the local MRF (material recovery facility) and get compost for my garden. The tipper carries out almost it's own weight in goods while those f*rds and ch*bies do well to haul over 1500 lbs.... f'n pussy trucks. _________________ Sounding like a broken record as to why You should be measuring protein during harvest in order to better your agronomic practices. |

Empi, no hard feelings if I have to sneak up and clock you in the back of the head with a tire iron, and borrow your car for a while are there?
Good, didn't think so.
