    What have you done WITH your wrecker this week?

    Would you say that the driver failed drivers training? Looks to me like he steered straight towards a big mud pit :)

    Ron's Talent I wish I had 10% of the talent Ron had around projects. If he only had the money, he would have had a 10 bay shop producing custom builds shipping out all over the world. There really was no problem he could not solve. Out of all his projects, BART stands out as a true...

    Joseph I am LMAO. He told me that story and added in his typical twang when he wanted to emphasis a point, "What did he expect? For me to put them on also." Joseph, I do have to share with you after saying that he said he wish he had thought of doing that for you and was kicking himself for...

    KGR-Not sure if everyone knows what this means in his signature. A few Rally's ago Ron being Ron had upset a few vendors.

    M101a3 trailer build

    Nice Build Bugout, I would suggest you blackout your license plate number when posting pictures. I am not worried about any of the SS members but we now live in a wierd world and it is very easy to find out information about you from your license plate. Sad that the world has come to this now.
