Oh wow. Thank you guys!!!!! What a great way to start a new Year!!

Thanks for the compliments- Jack's a major pita sometimes, but I wouldn't trade him for the world Or a boyfriend, or a life....

I think Rick just liked this pic

It's always fun to see an Explorer drive on an H2 Congrats on TOTW!

 

[Jefe]

Congrats, Welcome to the club

Edit: When did the TOTW tags get added under our names? I just now noticed that.

 

[DasFrem]

Congrats Lindsy, much deserved for the effort you put into "Jack"

 

[AlaskanJack]

I like the added feature in the Avatar/name part. So I guess in 5 yrs we will have 260 members with TOTW in their names!

So will there be trucks of the year or month???

 

[88vert]

Congrats on your new status

 

[Black Magic]

Congrats Spas!

 

[SoBeLover]

Congrats Lindsy.....couldn't happen to a nicer girl than you. I hope that mine will be as worthy some day.

 

[Spas]

Well, my boss doesn't believe the TOTW should get preferential parking Still had to park next to the dumpster today...ah well, it'll keep Blackjack humble, lol.

Thanks again, guys..this really made my week!



(BTW, X-Factor and other northerners, The TOTW will be getting new Upper and Lower Balljoints so he doesn't bite any more concrete walls. We'll be up near Mahwah, Nj the last weekend in January if y'all wanna hang out at Dave and Buster's with the rest of us!!!)

 

[X24]

Schweeeeet!!!! Well deserved. Congrats!

New ball joints sounds like a good idea. I still remember driving it down the highway that night during the rally with lizard saying, "Damn, this thing's all over the road."

BTW... Love the sig. LOL

 

[Blee1099]

Since Jack got TOTW, how about we shrinkwrap it so it won't get damaged or weathered? I might just make a drive up to Edgewood one night and shrinkwrap your truck. That'll be one good way to prevent Blackjack from getting any nicks or scratches from other vehicles.

 

[JDraper]

How 'bout we vacuum seal it instead??

 

[Blee1099]

I'm thinking we should also fill Blackjack with packaging popcorn inside & out.

congrats on the truck

I'm not afraid of you or Mr. Bat... We all know Mr. Bat can be sacrificed with a nice wood chipper. I may just have to take that nice scenic drive to Edgewood one night. Your right up the road from Hickory where one of my drinking buddies lives.
