Thanks Budha! I totally agree!

But, it's almost too much black for chrome wheels. I think the bug shield and the window trim dingys, whatever they are called, should go. Then the chrome wheels would look better.

Thank you Mam. You know I enjoy driving. looking forward to the drive. Going over on I-20, but think I'll return by some back roads. Like to see the countryside.

No problem, I'll just have Angelo rip them off when he picks it up next time.

It'll be a nice drive coming back. The back roads are always much prettier than driving on the interstate.

Keep the Vent Visors (the window dingys as Jimbo calls them), ditch the bug shield, and get some nice chrome wheels. They'd go great on that truck.

Have a safe drive Jimbo.


For those of you who haven't, service your transmissions. I did mine yesterday, and wow, for the few miles I drove the truck it sure feels a lot better.

Keep the beast and service it. In the past 3 months, I've changed EVERY fluid in the truck except for the coolant... Which is coming soon.
