    Vietnam Era Guntruck!

    What do you use your deuce for?

    i bought mine simply because i WANTED one. thats it... to **** with rhyme and reason...to me, it makes more sense in this day and age to go against the grain and be your own person and do what you want rather then being some sort of sheep led around by your nose being told what to wear what to...
