    My Ex GF started working on her house today and was pulling up the floor, there were newspapers from 1963! Most grocery store items were listed for .19c and there was a Goodyear tire ad with new bargin tires for $8.95, middle grade $10.95, and top of the line $11.95.

    In June 2010, I helped my friend's parents pick out a new heat pump when their old one died...

    On install day, I got to take apart the old one!

    Me in a new Jeep at a car show in the late 1990s (I am 99% sure this was Virginia Beach in either 1999 or 2000)...

    I'll take a Toyota over a Jeep any day of the week! I've loved the Tacoma since I was like nine!

    Jeeps are fun to beat the living shit out of after you rip all the drivetrain out and replace.
    Ask anyone that has used a Jeep for a daily driver. They hate it.

    You’re all right Charlie. You ever make it out to Colorado, we will have to go tear up some trails.

    You mean in your Jeep, right? Somehow, I don't think I'd get my deposit back if I rented a Wrangler and took it rock crawling!

    I'm sad to say that I have not actually been to Colorado since 1996, and it was only to drive through it when we were moving from Pennsylvania to California :(

    This picture was taken by a friend back in May 2017...


    I was leaving work (still worked at Puck at the time), and this guy with a Great Dane happened to be walking by; Everybody who knows me knows that I am the biggest dog person in the world...

    I stopped the truck and got out to pet the Great Dane; My friend, who lives in the 2nd floor apartment across the street, happened to catch the encounter...

    She took a picture with her phone and texted it to me!

    I used to use single 2x6's in those pockets but found that 2x4's doubled up fit much better.

    You should have them on your truck too, its so you can haul 4x8 sheets of plywood or drywall.

    Are those boards permanent or easily removable?
