Ok Murf you asked for it. Say your going to meet at a cummins party and try to get out of bringing the cummins. It's cold out! I installed tool boxes and the rboards with the temp under 20 not to mention wind chill. Ok I'm crazy about my truck and I want it to be all together now not later. There's only a few crazy cummins people in this group the rest are mostly normal?????
On a side note this crazy cummins guy could pick you up at Joplin if necessary, but only if your truck is on a trailer so I can tow it up to the meeting for you.

Tree Dr,

I think you need some more trucks... You are gonna have to decide which one of the 8 you are going to bring!

Now, Murf will be there in his truck, for sure!! Driven or trailered!!

All the trucks in the sig are sold except the last one. Not that I wouldn't find drivers to bring all of them if I still had them.

Been to mardi gras a couple of times when I was in the Army. Course I was a little less behaved back then. Wild place. A little to heavy on the freaks for a hillbilly. Those Hurricane drinks go down smooth and hit like a hammer the next morning.

You got me on that on Tree! I'm definitely not that nuts! Actually I've been working on the thing so much in the last year and a half since I bought it I've kinda enjoyed the last few months NOT working on it! I know, I know. I'm a poor excuse for a CTD owner. But this thing has drained me, mentally and monetarily! Besides, the wife is just happy I'm not sinking more cash into it!

And on the trailering issue. Sorry, I don't have a trailer (Please tell me you don't either? ) and if I did I'd hate to think of all the money I'd owe you for draggin' my beater up there and back!

Well as of the moment I don't but I do know where I could get one. If I put all the trailers on the list I've owned 7 but I sold all of them too. There's more I could be doing to mine right now. Tree work kind of took my spare time away since it warmed up. I'm not sure what your availible time for going to the meet is? PM me. I'll probable be able to work within your time constraints.

Me too! Looking forward to meeting yall. Sounds like quite a few may be coming.


As a side note, my sister was driving her Ferd Fusion home from work (somewhere between Carthage and Sarcoxie area) the other night and bambi decided to run across the road in front of her. She couldn't avoid it. Did about 5000 dollars worth of damage, but she wasn't hurt very bad. Just bruising from the Air Bags. I teased her and asked if she wanted me to buy her a Ranch Hand Front End and install it on the Fusion when I come up.

By the way, Bambi didn't fair very well.

Sorry They've been putting off this clean up thing because of the weather and now they tell me it's on the 3rd. Unless it rains it looks like I'm out for this one. Murf looks like your off the hook.

Murf isn't off the hook. He will be there, with his truck. I have access to a gn trailer too if his isn't driveable. So don't get any ideas about backing out now Murf.....

Sorry you can't make Tree DR. I hope it works out so you can.
