You realize I live in CT now right?

I thought you lived under CT.

Not yet! Still in school...

Update on the H1. Apparently it's being sold at the same place again because the owner of the shop is the owner of the H1. I guess he keeps changing his mind about whether to sell it or not. Back and forth, back and forth...

[NAKID]

So, more update on the H1. Went and talked to the owner today. Didn't drive it cause the weather sux. Owner is a really cool guy, seems to know his shit, found out it's on ebay too, but hasn't hit the reserve ($38,500). It's not the same one that was for sale a couple years ago, he has had 2, sold one, and also sold another for a friend, all from the same location. Tons of upgrades and just looks put together well. Here's the ebay ad, check it out.

You might think twice about the Dodge after seeing this video.  You'll need to scroll down a bit on the page for it.

And notice that the Titan wasn't even included?

Thoughts on trucks:


behind them:    hate you hate you hate you!


But now I kind of want to get one. Track toy hauler/camping situation mobile.

Jasper sells remaned engines.  No telling if it has the late model block that is not prone to #8 cylinder cracking.  You'd be better off buying mine.  Besides you can't even lock the soft top, it unzips from the outside..

That's cool.  I was thinking of bolting a toybox to the bed of my International S1600.

if you are enough of  a truck/gear head, PM me and i will send you a PDF with specs.
these are special made for the IHC community (although others now use them too) and they kick ass.

I know, I know Rob. But, he's local and it's an open bed (plus he has a bed extender that hooks into the receiver hitch)

I'll throw in a Moto Tote for the back and a KelTec SU-16CA with high cap mags.

You do realize that video is Ford advertisement right?

You honestly think Ford would put out a video their truck didn't win?

[NAKID]

Not to mention that Mike Rowe has done commercials for Ford...

Of course, I realize that.

I was trying to point out two things.  1) The Dodge Ram with it's fancy new coil spring rear end and HEMI power didn't do so well.  2) The Nissan Titan wasn't even considered.

Every manufacturer will find the smallest weakness of their competitors and exploit it.
