  1. XXL is my size--any chance on gray t-shirt? I'll take white if that is the only choise. My well water that we drink and wash clothes in where I live here in on the Tennessee State line has so much iron in it that we cannot buy white clothes for anyone in the family.I guess that is why they call where I live-- Iron City -- eeh? Thanks!!
  2. Thanks for sharing Fernando---Great Video!
  3. I just want to thank all you vets and also my oldest son. He joined last month and was Sweared into the Army on October 10th and will report to Fort Sill as soon as he graduates next May --then on to Fort Huachuca,Arizona for his AIT Training. Here is a video I took of his Swearing in Ceremony

  6. I wanted to post this in case anyone near Nashville would be interested in attending. You can ride in a P-51 Mustang or the only flying B-29 Superfortress. Here is the link to the website http://www.airpowersquadron.org/#!nashville-tn/c1afu I am going to take my 14 year old daughter for her birthday present to ride in the Boeing Stearman.
  7. Cool day.We often ride up to the Loveless Cafe and eat. I hope you had fun on the Trace it is really a piece of history.I live at the 341 mile marker near Collinwood. Right on the Trace marker of the Alabama--Tennessee state line.I have driven to all the way to Natchez 2-3 times a year since 1987 going to enduros and harescrambles. We stayed at the house yesterday, my 5 kids helped cook a big supper for me last night it was a relaxing day. Here is a bucket list item that I am going to do on fathers day week with my sons some time in the next few years it is AWSOME! Read this blog that is currently happening right now as I type,about a guy riding a small underpowered Hodaka 1970's 100cc Road Toad from Chattanooga,Tennessee all the way to Portland Oregon on the Transcontinetal Trail.It is all 2 lane roads and dirt road the entire distance. http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=893598 Then read this article it covers from restoration to every day of the actual trip.Just click on the days on the right of the home page for a day by day summary.This ride is during fathers day from 2011 about Jack Broomall who rode from Philadelphia,Pa to Athena Oregon on a 1977 125 Hodaka Wombat. http://www.slow-way-across.com/2011/06/gearing-up.html
  8. I salute you Ed and I am amazed at what your guys live through in the winter!! And Tim sounds like urban sprawl has made it's way down into Cochran I haven't been there in a while. But sometimes when I come home at night I can drive the whole 40 miles home and never meet a single car.So if I get stuck or tear up I am pretty much on my own.I don't own a cell phone because on my route home it would not get any reception anyway. Anyway TodFitch--check your PM's I am interested in the 1995 dodge truck if you are wanting to sell it. Bobby Joe Stults
  9. Tim, Evidently you have never been to Cochran--Greensboro or Bremen Georgia.You might want to check the 4X4 market in them areas.along with anywhere in southwest Georgia. If you made a trip to Tipton County,Tennessee you would understand what Scruff is talking about. I live in the Wayne County the 2nd largest county in the state of Tennessee and the total population is less than 10,000 people.We still have many low water bridges and probably half of our roads are still dirt.If you live here you need a truck with a 4x4.I am just sorry we are not as progressive as the great state of Georgia. Bojo Stults
  10. Scruff, Thanks for the honest input.I would rather see you Green Dodge Truck with the cattle racks running than a custom rod.Although I am a Chevy/Dodge guy and kinda feel the same way about Fords as you do about Chevy's but that is what makes this hobby cool isn't it? I not old enough or smart enough to understand the reasoning why people put the small block Chevy's in Ford and Mopar customs?????? In the dirt bike world it would be like putting a Honda Cr engine in your vintage Kawasaki KX or your Yamaha YZ?! I just don't get it.Maybe some one can explain this to me. Bojo Stults
  11. Yea Greg I'm going to pull it out when I get around to it I might just drill holes in the trunk and let it ride as is.I fully expect it to get 300,000 miles before I scrap metal it!! Then I will get me another small car and do the same. I drive this car everyday 80 mile round trip to work. Paul even though I am not a Ford man I always really liked that body style T-birds. Good looking truck Ed--my 2001 S-10 extended cab that I bought new gave up the ghost about 4 months ago my son had been driving it to school and the #1 cylinder rod let loose and knocking bad.It had 215,000 miles on the 4 cylinder.It's still in the yard waiting to decide what I am going to do. Here is a picture of my 1987 Toyota 4x4 SR5 truck that I bought for around the house and my son to drive to school.It has absolutely zero rust any where in the frame or body.I have never seen a Toyota truck with as little rust as this truck.It has the 22RE with 280,000 miles on it.I will pass this truck to my 14 year old girl when she turns 16.Also here is a shot from behind of the dented Camry and the truck. Bojo
  12. Naw I meant Dodge--I just looked wrong if it had been dirt bikes I would have got it right. Bojo
  13. Well here it is a 1990 Toyota Camry. This is kinda long story bear with me,1st off let me say I bought this car off e-bay from a local Honda dealer in Huntsville,Alabama.The person that bought the car new in 1990 worked at Redstone Arsenal and had traded it in for a new Honda. I bought this car 4 years ago in July,I paid $900 for it.The car was a 1 owner and only had 98,000 miles on the odometer.I started driving it to work daily,I drive a 80 mile round trip to work every day.I have been driving this 80 mile trip to work since 1989!! This Camry drove like a dream everything worked and it gets 33 MPG no matter how you drive it 400 miles on 12 gallons of gas everytime. I have took my kids and myself in this car to Knoxville to watch a Tennessee Football game.I have driven it to Atlanta to a Braves game.I have driven it to Talladega,Alabama to the Arron's 500.I have driven it to Indianapolis to pick up dirt bike parts and everywhere in between. I drove the car till it had 118,000 miles and the tires that came on it when I got it were wore out so I spent $ 275.00 on a new set of tires.Then I drove the car another 4,000 miles and the top of the radiator started leaking a little so I put in a new radiator I think about $90.00. Then I drove the car till 130,000 miles and I was getting worried about the timing belt so I ordered got a new Toyota brand belt tensioners,oil pump,water pump everything and had my buddie that runs a service station in Lawrenceburg,Tennessee that I have been racing dirt bikes with since the 1980's.I left the car with him and told him to replace everything .His mechanic is a Toyota expert.Everything total was about $500.00 or so. I then drove the car till about 165,000 and had to get another set of tires this time about $300.00.I also put in a new Interstate battery $100.00. Now here is the kicker to the story in late January this year I was driving to work on the backroads I have to drive.I was about 15 miles towards work and on a 2 lane road and a lady was turning left into here driveway.As soon as she turned I caught a glimpse in my rear view mirror of a truck then BANG!! he hit me square in the rear end.He got out and was about 19 years old and was driving a 1987 Toyota 4x4 truck he said the brakes went all the way to the floor,of this I am sure.Because the truck he was driving was worse shape than you can imagine,I could not believe it would even drive.I had zero tread on all for tires and only 2 bolts holding on the bed of the truck and no front bumper.There is not enough time and space here to describe the condition of his truck. Well he was a good ole country boy and called the Trooper we filled out the report and went on our merry ways.I got a call from his Progressive agent the next day and the adjuster came on Sunday.He called we with the estimates.Progressive totaled the car and paid me $1890.00 and let me keep the car.Although I cannot have anymore claims on this car. So what I am trying to say is I have drove this Camry 4 years and spent about $2,000 total on keeping it running good. Progressive paid me $1900.00 so driving this car for 4 years and putting 79,000 miles on the car since I have owned it has cost me about $200.00. I know the rear end looks bad and no one in my family will be seen with me driving it!! My wife and daughters laugh everytime they see me out in it, but I don't care I would head out to California in this Toyota tomorrow--let's here your stories on some of your cars trucks etc. .
  14. Sounds cool wish I did not have to work. Give me the dates again on your rally @ your place. Thanks Scruff Bobby Joe Stults just call me BoJo
