Umm FYI the odds that his avatar are of the 5.0 is very small.


First off, months ago remember he made a video of him burning out his stock tires?

Second off, do you really think he'd burn out his 35s?

Cmon people!

I would. Haha... I mean c'mon. The temptation would be too great with the V8 in there.

But you're probably right. Those don't look like 35's.

ok I'm writing this again..since in the middle of it last time the power went out cause of a storm...sooooo

Ran the truck for a little bit today to test the cooling systems etc. and to tweak things. Dam does the 5.0 sound sick with just headers! ha


I'm leaving for the weekend to the cabin so things like my exhaust and my driveshaft i will hopefully get in early next week and then i can drive it. i was hoping to get it all done this week but I've been just too damn busy, but the more work hours the more money i get to spend on my truck so its all good

dude that storm was siiiiiiiiick.


There was a tornado in plymouth or something. I was in costco and all you could hear was the quarter size hail hitting the roof. I was an idiot thinking i could walk to my truck in costco parking lot and by the tiem I got there I was soaked to teh bone. Then I opened my truck door, it was ripped from my hands and my truck door was instantly soaked to the bone. Then I drove home and everyone was being ***** drivers and I was driving thru 3 inches of rain and sometimes deep puddles.

Yeah man. That was crazy. I didn't get outta work until the worst had gone over, but I was cruisin' through "puddles" that were up 6 inches on the door. Needless to say there were cars stalled out all over the place cause they kept trying to blow through the water. I was driving around in this one puddle and this lady is like "You are totally pushing your luck." She was nice though... I stopped took a couple pics of the truck... and she took a couple of me next to it. Great times... man.

Anyway... glad to hear the truck is firing. We'll have to plan a meet or someting soon so we can see it in all it's glory.

bull**** I have never seen an apple tree here. I think I saw cherry trees, it was hard to not steal a bed full of cherries.

And are you driving your truck yet? or just starting it. GET THAT **** DONE!
