1991 Ford F-150 long bed, extended cab. Like this but 2wd. Kinda beat up but low miles. 1981 Dodege RAM 50 Royale Like this but black. In really great shape.

Slot Cars, Die Cast 1:18, 1:64, Model Kits. Every die cast or model kit I've ever seen. I received it when I ordered a Schwinn Grey Ghost die cast. It's the best resource I've ever seen of its kind. Maybe if you call 888-910-2889 they'll send you one. ;

Am I the only one who thinks the Challenger and Charger Hemi cars might make a comeback? Maybe the TRX and the Hemi Durango. The outlook for EVs is a lot dimmer than it was two years ago. Can company X just buy all the tooling and continue them? If a certain person gets elected the upcoming...

Nevermind I found it on YT for you.

It's on Prime right now. Wake of Death. A fairly lame Jean Claude Van Damme movie. The first five minutes show a car chase that is later expanded much later in the movie. It has a white fourth Gen Z28 which you don't see very often. It gets destroyed but the action is real, no CGI. The last...

The whole fracking objection is a bunch of crap. The walls of the hole are encased in iron pipe and then cemented. Can mistakes be made, yes, but the government is very involved in the process so it's followed correctly. On the Deepwater Horizon, a whole bunch of things went wrong at once and...

The mud man is very important. For non-oilfield people there is mix of fluids that are pumped down the center of the drill pipe and out the bit. Then that mud carries the rock debris up the outside of the pipe and into a pit. The mud also seals the walls of the open hole. The chemistry has to...

The roughnecks are pretty much the bottom rung of society. Some can't read but they're basically good guys. Some are meth addicts. Sometimes I wrote letters to judges keeping them out of jail, for drinking and fighting, explaining how hard and valuable their work was. It usually worked. It's...

I don't know about the offshore rigs but the rest I do. That first guy covered in drilling mud is setting the tongs. Usually, it's a two-man job but it is that dirty and you have to move that fast and know how to throw your whole weight into it. Next, that guy is what we call throwing the...

I've said this a couple of times but if a movie has cool cars I'm there. That's why I can handle the nonsense in the F&F movies. Sometimes I look at what cars they chose to see if their fame will turn them into future classics. For instance, I wonder if Nova prices went up after F&F 9.

Fury Road was noteworthy for its very limited CGI. Don't know about this one.

Lucky for me, my daughter is a veterinarian nurse. Diesel was sick this week with GI issues. He got an ER visit and a bunch of meds all at 1/2 price. Colorado temps are warming up but not over the high 70's. She said a dog came in today with heatstroke. The dog didn't survive. Be careful with...

Since it's a prequel it will have Immortan Joe. It was played by Hugh Keays-Byrne, who also played the villain Toe Cutter in the original Mad Max movie. Since Hugh-Byrne passed away after Fury Road it's played by a new actor who also needed to portray Immortan Joe as a younger person. The...

My daughter submitted this to a Newfie site.

I pitched a horror movie idea to a friend. You know conventional wisdom portrays a soul that sticks around in the area where their life was lost, like their old home, insane asylum, etc. Graveyards never made much sense as a haunted place since the soul and body have been separated for days...

Well, with my long white hair I make a good old-timey cowboy, biker, or Nordic tribesman. If you need a hub next to the Rockies you can work outta here,

It's tricky. colors that look good on smaller cars rarely look good on full-size cars. I like "The Hammer." I believe it's a BMW color. Warm gray.

We have these weird windstorms since we are right up against the Rocky Mountains. I heard a forecast for 90mph gusts. I saw some fences down and some power outages. At 5:00 am I could feel the second floor of the house shaking from wind gusts.

If it provokes thought, poetry, movies, literature, and music are worth considering. We might not agree with the author but then it's even more important to consider. Basically, I'm disagreeing with Francis Ford Coppola and saying Kurtz is right. Soldiers in Vietnam were branded as baby...
