  1. The "Big Dummy" Passed Away

    Grady Demond Wilson who was the son of Fred Sanford in the hit tv show Sanford and Son passed away Friday from cancer complications at the age of 79. I've seen every episode of Sanford and Son and still watch the reruns along with All In The Family. He was the perfect sidekick for Red Foxx and...
  2. Space Shuttle Challenger

    It's hard to believe it was 40 years ago today that the Challenger went down. I remember hearing the news on the radio while we were working on a condo and had to wait to get home to see the news because there wee no smartphones back then. Christa McAuliffe was born in Boston and was a teacher...
  3. Happy Birthday Chris

  4. Corvette ZR1X hits 60 in 1.68 seconds, 1/4 mile in 8.675 @ 159 mph!

    This is amazing performance from a production car which is mainly ICE 1064 HP gas & 186 HP electric. Running the 1/4 mile in 8.675 seconds at 159.57 mph with a 0-60 MPH in only 1.68 seconds which is about 1.5 G’s acceleration in 1st & 2nd gear on pump gas. Most of us grew up with muscle cars...
  5. Blizzard-Ice Storm January 23-26, 2026

    ***I thought a lot of you should be aware (if you weren't already) of this huge storm. Hopefully it shifts again but it's been getting worse not better. I'll move it to the Off Topic section once it's over.*** I've been following this storm for a few days (I've always been a weather geek) and...
  6. San Xavier Del Bar Mission

    Saturday we went to the home show up in Tucson and it was really small and one of the worst we’ve ever been to.So we made a Costco run then stopped at the San Xavier Del Bar Mission church on our way home. We went here back in the summer but it was 106 outside and we didn’t get to really see or...

  11. The Groom Texas Cross of Our Lord Jesus Christ

    We were traveling on I-40 through Texas and always wanted to stop here and see the cross but never had the time. We stopped yesterday but it was so windy and cold Annie stayed in the truck while I took some pictures. The cross is 190' tall and weighs 2 1/2 tons and was built in just 8 months by...
  12. RIP Ace Frehley

    The legendary Kiss guitarist Ace Frehley passed away at the age of 74. I think most if not everyone in our generation was a pretty big Kiss fan back in the 70's & 80's. They were different with their flashy makeup, crazy costumes and pyrotechnics and had so many great rock hits. I never got to...
  13. I'm Sold On Hybrids!

    So I rented a 2025 Toyota Camry (which are all hybrid now) for our most recent trip. I’ve always loved the Camry and have been thinking about buying one for a while and wanted to see if I’d like it and honestly I’ve never driven a hybrid before. Our trip is 1,280 miles each way and a lot of stop...
  14. Never Forget!

    It’s hard to believe it was 24 years ago today that one of the worst tragedies on our soil took place. Please take a moment to stop and remember all those whose lost their lives and for those whose lives changed drastically that day and for those real heroes who ran into harms way while others...
  15. Is Everything Junk Now?

    Was wondering if anyone else has been having problems with appliances (or anything non truck related) lately? We've been buying a lot more stuff than usual for the new house and it seems like even good quality name brands are just not what they use to be. I bought a 70" Samsung tv and both the...

    Now I can see it. Btw...great tunes! Styx is one of my favorite bands. :rockon:
  17. "There's No Santa?"

    Say it isn't so. :shock: o_O How you learned this devastating truth -- or did you never believe in the first place? (There are probably a lot of kids today who don't, sadly.) For me, it was the Easter Bunny story that first fell apart. I just eventually figured it out on my own. I remember...
  18. Ford Ranger Among Top 20 Used Cars With Biggest Price Drops

    The title is a little misleading because you'd think it was talking about new Ranger prices dropping. Used Rangers are in the top 20 for the biggest depreciation over the last year. The article goes on to say that $30K is the new $20K for used cars in the 1-5 year old range. It's crazy to think...
  19. Ram Driver ‘Secures’ Ford F-150 STX To Flatbed

    Just be glad this isn't your Ranger! :shock: I've seen (I'm sure many have too) my share of things done so wrong you scratch your head wondering how/why people do things. Well this is one of those head scratching moments as to why would you secure a truck (or any vehicle) this way? ?ā€ā™‚ļø The...
