we got a place up here called burks bbq..........damn good ribs there man!!! and their red sauce is friggin amazing!!

 

welcome to tw!!!

NICE PICS!!! Sweet taco!!!

 

More pics its your thread...clutter away!

 

I actually live on the edge of Lexington and work in Columbia. Those pics were taken down town at the Blossom St. Garage right on USC campus. Its the perfect place for some sweet pics. Maybe we can get a group together and get some good shots up there. Heck...we could make a meet out of it.

Here are more pics I took up there. And let me be the first to say that I am no professional photographer by any means! I just used my basic point and click digi camera and was on my way lol











Here is a quick daytime shot of the CF dash...there is also CF around the door tweeters as well as the tranny shifter

 

Must be the garage at the State Museum. My Aunt works there for the Dept Of Revenue.

 

Nah...wrong one. This one isn't near the Museum. It's on Blossom St. just a block from the Blatt Fitness Center on USC campus. I believe they are building new honors college dorms right across the street so there is actually a lot of construction going on in the background that I conviently left out

I will say this though...that garage has about a 6' 3" ceiling....my truck was ok in there but when going on the ramps the antenna would hit the support beams. So if anyone has a lifted truck they wouldn't be able to drive through there.

 

awesome ground level pic! I like even better than the other garage pic. You did very well for your first truck purchase man. Noticed that their is a special floor mat in the X-SP. Any pics?

 

Nice truck man! love the color!

 

Yea, X-SP is embroidered in the floor mats....I'll post some pics when I get some. I don't think I mentioned it before but the running boards say X-SP on them as well....I'll post those too!

Yea, if you're lifted or have big tires it'll def be a problem. From the look of the support beams....some people may have found out the hard way lol

 

Not a pretty sight I bet

I could have used some police help a couple of months ago lol

 

yea...got pulled in Ridgeland on my way to Hilton Head

 

I know where you work....I saw your truck parked near the loading dock. You don't work in the mailroom do you? (no offense, just asking a question) The stock room there sucks. Have to drag all my pallets into the hallway. I'm sure you've side stepped one or two during your day. I make it an hassle for all because it's a hassle for me. The FireChief would have kittens if he ever saw that mess.

The mailroom guy is the only one I know, besides the large and lovely security chick (ooooof). Gotta love the sliding doors, somewhat "GetSmart" like.

 

Sorry bro...you got the wrong person

 

You mean there are two trucks like that in the Columbia area? Same pinstripe, same carbon fiber-like dash? Same wheels?

Hmmmm.....my apologies. Well there is one at the Carolina First Bank Annex in W.Columbia/Lexington Line. Bank is out front and the annex is in the back off of Corley Mill Rd.

Well, you have a twin then. You can always blame "IT" on him officer!

 

What you're describing may have some validity to it. I live across the street from the Carolina First Bank on Corley Mill and 378. I also do some banking there as well. You may have seen me driving around the area. There is also a '05 or '06 Taco very similar to mine driving around the same area. Its black with the same wheels except he has a ton of chrome added to his....chrome mirrors, chrome tailgate handle, chrome door handles from what I've seen. It's an older guy and I've seen him a few times turning on to Corley Mill Rd. I may have seen you driving around as well lol. What color is your truck?

 

It's probably his then, Not much difference by way of chrome I thought. Tough to commit it to memory though. Whoever it is works there. It's parked in the annex parking lot which is pretty well guarded. Have to get through a camera scan with an iron gate that has to be opened by the security folks. It had a great parking spot, right next to the ramp/stairway to get into the building. I'm sure it's first come first serve there when It comes to parking spots. That's why I questioned the mailroom. Sorry for the assumption. Never saw one like that 'till you posted.

I work for FedEx. The heavy stuff. It's a bitch getting a tractor trailer through that gate and then back it in though all those cars.

I drive an '08 Speedway Blue DC Long Bed PreRunner. I live in the Northeast/SandHill area. I get out that way when I want some good BBQ at Hudson's Smokehouse.

See you around town somewhere, sometime I'm sure.
