 Mines a 1999 F150 V8 4x4 150K Like Buck just normal repair stuff Brakes tires  had some Front  linkage work done,  Needs a tune yet, but still around 15 mpg city or highway with or with out trailer.   Sold the trailer this week really don't need the truck but I hate to part with it, kinda like my saddle

[Scarlet Angel]

LR...ya can always find a need for a truck, especially when ya don't have one. Was borrowin mom & dad's alot before I bought mine, for things other than the horse & saddle

Leo, I like Mopar  You seen that new Challenger they got out? Looks pretty good in the pictures. I'm afraid they would charge me for droolin on it if I went to the dealership.    Course ain't nothin' like the ones they are tryin to take the place of.

I always will have a truck or large SUV the rest of my life. I'm too tall and too big to fit in a car. I haul a lot of lawn care stuff in my old pickup and haulin' Miss "T" around.  My new pickup is a regular cab and it hasa fiberglass bedcover on it. It's got a V6 and it gets better gas mileage than the old pickup. Right now the new one is the one I drive when I go out of town.

We rented a new Charger when we flew inta Pheonix last year.  Nice car.  Drove up ta Sadona in it with two kids in the back, we was all comfy an haulin a$$ on the open highway.  That Challenger looks even sweeter

Early 70's redo, just like the current Mustangs( of which we have one ) From the little press I 've seen on them, they're going to be few and quite pricey. Next year, GM's supposed to roll out a new Camaro.............Buck

[Arcey]

See where Jack Roush is bein’ sued over his limited edition ‘Blackjack’ Mustangs? Announced there was only gonna be a hundred of ‘em at 55K a pop ‘n he built two hundred..

Add the cat in the hat to the crook list with Hendrick ‘n Haas.

[Scarlet Angel]

My friend in TX has the newer Mustang. That car is so much fun to cruz around in.

Yeah Leo that's the one...gonna have to rent one one of these days just for the heck of it.

We rented a charger on one of our trips. Nice car too.

[Texas Lawdog]

I heard that GM had put the Camaro project on hold for a while.

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Could be quite possible, TLD. Probably have to try to make it shrink and sip gas.............Buck

[Texas Lawdog]

I'd like to have one those restomod "Smoky and the Bandit" Firebirds that Year One is doing, If I had that much money lying around.

This weekend is Hot August Nights here in Reno.  The streets are full of classic cars!  The only place to see more of them is in the various casino parking lots around Reno/Sparks where they have Show and Shines.

[Leo Tanner]

I haven't been up fer one of them in ages.  It's tempting this year.  Next month you'll get ta deal with Street Vibrations.  It's becoming one of the biggest MC runs in the country.  I never liked it, would rather see the cars.

We got a restored B-17 this weekend. The Liberty Belle. They’re sellin’ rides but the radio spots only say they’re not cheap. Ain’t ridin’ half way ta Carolina ta find out.

[Texas Lawdog]

Arcey, I'm sorry  I can't be there for that one. It's hard for me to turn down a ride in a Warbird.

[Arcey]

Love ta take a ride. Wanna know what they charge ‘n when. Looked at the airplane’s website ‘n they want ya ta call a toll free number. Just me but I don’t play that way.

[Scarlet Angel]

Russ you been to the Rib cook off? If so is it worth the long haul to get there??

[Delmonico]

They got one here this week-end, don't know if it's any good, never bothered to go down-town and put up with the Yuppies to find out.

Been going for about 10 years.  Ribs are good, but lines can be long.  Lots of arts and craft stuff.  It can get really hot, as the entire thing is set up on the main street of Sparks.  Lots of blacktop and concrete.  I enjoy it for the people, the beer, the ribs (they can get pricey), and the crafts. Parking can be a problem on Sat and Sun, unless you get there early, as it is basically downtown Sparks.  The same as this weekend with Hot August Nights.  The entire center of town is closed off to allow bands, cars, vendors, more cars, and more vendors.  Makes parking a major consideration.

I'd pay, but that's jus me.  My uncle was a tail gunner on one an I've been attracted ta em ever since hearin the stories.  I got his dog tags an his special ring, would be great ta ride in a plane of the same make he fought in.

Rib cook off is on fer us.  Care less if I have ta shove yuppies outta ma way er not.  PM me the details Russ an mebbe we can git Scarlet ta chow down with us.  Want ta make room reservations soon as possible ta get a good rate.

By the way I forgot the 45th National Championship Air Races:   Sept 10-14/

[Scarlet Angel]

I know Old Sac is having Gold Rush Days Aug 29 or 30th-Sept 1. Our group saddles up and goes on down. There is also something else that weekend I have promised to do with my husband...But I'm wondering he could get off Wed or Thurs when the crowds are not as big and maybe we'd make it over.  Hmmmm

[Russ T Chambers]

Here's a link to John's website fot the Cook Off.  Let me know if and when you guy's may show up!!

Leo, You need to go the the PLanes of Fame mueseum in Chino. They have got a lotta Warbirds, some of which are rare.  My job has afforded me the priviledge of visiting most of the WarBird museums except the Smithsoanian in DC.
