    Really nice truck Larommi. The previous owner might be a bit loony, but he obviously loved that truck and cared for it well. I'm pretty sure you got one Hell of a deal there. Enjoy,Bubba!

    Round these parts, most real Bubba trucks either have welding equipment on the bed, or U.S. and Confederate flags flying or all of the above. U.T. Longhorn decals for the back window are popular as well. Personally, Larommi, I think the only thing you need to add is a few banks of HID lights. It's not a real truck unless it carries enough lighting to start a grass fire.

    I might put some lights on it but really, anything added at this point will be for practical purposes.

    Getting fender flares to keep the road salt and sand from eating the fenders, tinting the windows and getting some rain guards so I can open the windows without turning the cab into a wind tunnel.

    No bubba trucks in WI anymore. They cracked down on it and limited tires and lifts. If you are going to be legal on the road, about the only thing I could add would be a body lift and it is tall enough to get my fat ass in and out.

    Does anybody remember way back when cars used to have a vent under the dash that you could open up manually and have fresh air flow in? I really miss those. That way, you don't have to open up the windows in bad weather and still get fresh air in. Why did they do away with those anyway?

    I guess everything has to run through the fan now. And the filters.

    It's still too hot to open the windows. It's 89 degrees outside. It's the middle of October and it feels like July. Gimme some AC.

    Well, the stuff the engine may leak is stuff that us Dems fought to prevent, and it only happened to leak due to Republican opposition to more stringent emissions standards. Sorry, but I'm home alone this weekend, bored, and I just couldn't resist.
