What can I say. I got super busy with work, Sold the van ( blew a head gasket, no time to fix it), Became single, Found a new woman, got engaged, Bought an F250 :-$ and started my own landscape company....... Now I'm fixing / rearranging everything in sight because there is no snow. All my contracts are seasonal so I still get paid and I'm bored stupid lol. That about sums it all up.


I see there are quite a few new members! :cheers:

I suddenly feel like I should go buy a new van to work on.......... To bad I spent my project budget for the year on a leveling kit, air bag kits (front and rear) plus compressor kit and grille / grille guard and some lights for my truck :D

Hows the "other" site doin anyways. Haven't even looked.

So how is everyone anyways?

How are the projects coming along?

Rebel you raced that rocket of yours yet?

Lifted you got another jacked up van yet?

You guys memorized the channel lock review by justice yet?


I could read all about it in the forums I guess but wouldn't it be way more engaging and fun to start a conversation?
