Family;
OK so tomorrow is the big night. I am so excited I dont know if I will sleep tonight. Pass out, maybe; sleep, no. Not just because of the show, but also because my brother loaned me his '73 F250 Ranger. The truck's name is Uncle Jesse, a nod to the nearly identical truck driven by Denver Pyle's character in the Dukes of Hazzard (Daisy: you were my first true love).
So I am thinking of buying it. Cons: it's an automatic (for wimps) and a 2WD (for Kentuckyians). Pros: it rides like a friggin Cadillac, and looks really, really cool. I am over the part about it being a Ford, since I'm from a long line of GM men. Jesse may not be a Chevy, but he's family

Remember-tomorrow show at the lounge! It will be so awesome, I cant even guarantee safety!!
email me for discount tix!!
More later

I have to say that a 2WD truck in this state is about as useful as tits on a hog, as the saying goes. Still.. What's it got for a motor? 460?

Willis: I agree with you, even tho with studded snows I am as lethal in 2WD as 4WD. My mechanic neighbor says he can put a Dana 44 up front for dirt cheap. Not real sure about that one seems fraught with peril
