    I had a lot of dealings with Boeing over the years, as a major subcontractor for our programs and a major subcontractor for theirs. Worked with a lot of people from McDonald Douglas when they came to work for us.

    I watched the CNN special about the twin towers disaster last night and it brought back memories I'd like to remember and forget too. I was watching the morning news drinking a cup of coffee when it happened. At first I thought it was an accident, but then as it developed, I knew it was...

    Truck Caps

    I bought my wife a new Bronco Sport that has all that crap on it. The only trouble is when you disable it, when you turn the key off, everything goes back to the factory settings.

    Truck Caps

    I was recently thinking about getting rid of my F350 diesel 4x4 crew cab now that I am selling my travel trailer. I was considering a f150 or a Ranger. The only transmission you can get is a 10 speed. It is always hunting and shifting gears so you get the best mileage per the computer. All the...

    Truck Caps

    In 1975 I bought a new Chevy 3/4 , 4x4 pickup AND a new custom built cabover camper for around $8,000. I know it was a long time ago, but at the same time I was buying a home and I owned a 24" trailer boat. ........and I still saved money.

    I had no idea. That one in the picture looks great. What is it made of? I had a fiberglass topper on a pickup many years ago. I didn't like them because anything I want to get out always seemed to be in the front part of it LOL! I have a flip up bed cover (in 4 pieces that folds up) that I...

    Ford Excursion VS. 3/4 Ton Suburban

    I've had diesels since Ford introduced their 6.9 in 1983. My first one didn't even have a turbo ( I put one of the first Banks Turbo on it back then). I have had 3 more since then. Every one had over 150,000 miles when I got rid of it. My 99 had 300,000 miles on it when I got my 2013. The only...

    Ford Excursion VS. 3/4 Ton Suburban

    Just don't get a used Ford with the 6.0 or 6.3 diesel. I have a 6.7 and it has given me no trouble at all. This is my 4 th Ford diesel and the 7.3 was bulletproof. Put almost 300,000 miles on it and all I did was normal maintenance.
