    I've talked about this before. For me, skip the tequila and add beer, shoes, glasses and underwear to that list. :thumbsup:

    @pearing Not a flat bed as much as a "bed delete." I hope this is a work in progress and not the final product... Or maybe somebody stole his bed. The taillights made me LOL.

    Small lift, slightly oversized tires, well...
    Doesn't look like a Ram, or I'd say it probably rusted off.

    Speaking of which... Last week, I ran into town to pick up some stuff at Fleet Farm and do my grocery shopping. I get just west of Sherwood and there's a truck sitting along the highway with it's flashers on, driver is an older (well about my age, older for most of y'all) woman. I pull over to see if she needed any help. Did I mention that this truck was a rustbucket Dodge? She says the front tire blew up and she had a wrecker coming because of some of the damage and she doesn't have a spare. Said it scared the hell out of her.

    Sure as hell, the tread came off and smashed the living daylights out of the truck. Tore half of the bumper cover off, knocked out the right turn signal, tore the inner fender out, made a mess out of the fender and slapped the right rocker cover up about 5" into the door (which was all bent up). I think the right headlight was partly broken out too.

    I helped unwrap the tread from around the front suspension and popped the last clip that was holding the air dam on and put both in the box while she went to retrieve the fender liner and turn signal. She thanked me for stopping even though there wasn't much I could do to help. On my way home I saw the truck at the repair shop. Probably put another used tire on it and took it on down the road.

    No, really. Please tell us what it's from. Beatles song? Lyrics you wrote during an acid trip? Topics that would get Moderator Larry to send you on vacation if the source/topic is revealed? Inquiring minds need to know!

    Just random musings and deep thoughts about tequila, coffee, beer and expensive underwear.

    I’m sorry for derailing the wonderful coffee discussion, I’ve just never been a coffee achiever and it was starting to make my head spin!

    I'm often reminded of the passage of time. And, the thing about the passage of time is that, as time passes, I often pass the time reflecting on times that have passed.

    I've found that spending too much time dwelling on the past hinders you from looking ahead to the future. In return it will make perfect sense of the present.

    Same here but for the balding part, mine is merely turning white faster than a speeding bullet.
