Re:Noise complaints?
I read the thread about CH looking for a red neck girl. My gal fit the description except that she's 47. Another problem is that she only wears Levis. No Ranglers for this cowgirl!

OH except in the drive thru. I usually shut it down before they get around to asking but on a few occasions I get " Can you please turn your vehicle off?" I'm tempted to say NO. Now that would be a sight!<br>[/quote]<br><br>Was eating lunch at the local Sonic Drive-In yesterday. In the 30 minutes I was there must've been 3 or 4 other CTDs besides mine drive around it. Bet that person taking the orders wasn't very happy. ;D

Re:Noise complaints?
IMHO a couple R5 V-16 Enterprise diesels with a combined rating of 17,000HP takes the cake. Each one is bigger than my truck and weighs in at about 300,000 pounds. How do you type a grunt? hehe

Re:Noise complaints?
I guess I'll toss in my two cents. For BigBlue, I am only 19 ;D And for cattlehauler, my girlfriend love my truck. She liked it most last year when I pick her up from her school for her off-campus lunch days (she is a senior in HS) and all her friends know when I arrive, since I arrive about 5 minutes early for just that reason 8) <br> As far as complaints....It's always nice seeing people roll up windows and call me number-1 with the wrong finger at traffic lights. They always get the "fare-thee-well" cloud when the light turns green

I love the sound of a 750 lb calve's hoof as it whistles past my ear. I hate the sound of a 650 lb calve's hoof as it makes contact.<br><br>I hate vaccination day.<br><br>Rod
