    by now everyone knows that my canadian and texan stereotypes are dead on. just like in the 1950's tv shows and cowboy movies. lets see if my mexican stereotypes are accurate (they come from the same 1950's shows and movies). Ed, answer honestly. last night when you were drinking you....

    1)were drinking a combination of tequila and warm dos equis

    2)were wearing a sombrero

    3)were eating beans

    4)riding a donkey or "burro"

    5)wearing two belts of bullets around your neck in an "X" pattern

    6)have a fumanchoo (sp) mustache

    7)shooting at the alamo

    8)took a break from drinking to have a siesta or a fiesta

    9)were drinking with someone dressed like a catholic priest

    10)passed out in a pig sty

    ok Ed, i assume all those are true for all Mexicans. am i as dead on accurate as i am about the 10 gallon hat wearing horse riding dirty texans?

    None currently, but I would like a better sounding exhaust and perhaps a cold air pack and some color coded step bars
    My Taco is made in Calif or as we say in the East the "left coast"...LOL If you open the door and look on the door post you will find all sorts of good info, including VIN #, color code , option codes, where it was made and my truck is # 937. Next to this tag is a info tag for your tire type and pressures etc.

    I work at a major sporting goods store (350 of them) I am willing to bet that there are only 5 items out of tens of thousands that are made in the USA. Its a shame, much like GM, Ford and Chrysler , the only thing upper management thinks about is there yearly bonus and nothing about the future.

    Jeff , 06,V6, 6spd 4x4, SR5, beautiful red and bone stock, so far.

    I've said it before, and I'll say it again. My hat is only a 1 gallon. Because I'm not trying to compensate for any shortcoming.

    Ed, are you saying that's 3 girls, or that nd's cousin/sister/girlfriend is the same girl? He is from SC, so it's worth making this point clear. Could go either way.
