It is
the hour before midnight, on the harsh, gray flat asphalt road along the
banks of one of the Great Lakes . A truck races by like a
shadow, the moon glowing behind a small house. The car swiftly goes on
by, the dim light from the fogy night: --moon penetrating through the
fog onto the tuck and house, where a man is standing by the road; --
music is heard coming from the car, Rock & Roll, as this stranger
standing by the road, a man in a red plaid shirt, he stands erect, as if
he was Paul Bunion; standing in-between the road and the house as a
truck races by.
See my family has always been sort of dysfunctional and
encountered endless arguments over senseless topics for as long as I can
remember. The lesson of karma is that at some point in time, God, the
Universe and the "powers that be" will step in with the intent of
rebuilding the structure of a family broken down.
Along the roadside you can see
the shades of dark-green and black shadows along the grass, and the
crossing of shadows along the forwarding black asphalt road, as the
Ford-truck glides along.

Truly the only thing Hannah's
was good for was drinking, and despite our ages we ordered up and were
served the working man's traditional shot-and-a-beer. In fact we were
served a lot of tradition that night, and by two in the morning we were
beginning to feel our oats. The
first voice I heard when I came out of surgery was Harrison's. Harrison
called me on the phone and said, "Hey, are you okay?" I said,
"Yeah, I'm good." He said, "Well, then you need to get back to work." I
said, "Are you serious?" He said, "That's the way this cookie crumbles."
So I went back to work. The show doesn't stop for anybody.
I had just started on another beer when someone dropped a few
coins in the juke box. The music was bad country. To my utter disgust
the first song that played was that "I want to stick a boot up your
butt" super-patriotic, ultra-jingoist thing by the guy in the
buy truck near me commercials. The people around me began to sing
along loudly. It is important to note that when it comes to the
systems that keep you safe, the steering and the suspension are top
parts that you need to consider. These two work together so that you get
a fine handling and real good ride for your vehicle. The parts that make
up these systems include the shock absorbers, the steering knuckle,
steering rack, bearings, ball joints, and tie rod ends. If these get
damaged, you would most likely be losing control of your vehicle. You
also be most likely experiencing a little sway when you take those
simple turns that did not bother you much before. In the local automotive arena,
decline in gas prices seem to benefit GM most. The automaker's truck
sales surged by 32.9 percent. DaimlerChrysler truck sales were up by
11.1 percent. Jeep and Dodge received most of the gains. Jeep auto parts
are proving what they are worth in Liberty and Commando. Consequently,
Dodge truck parts are still preferred by many truck enthusiasts. So
there you have it. I have listed some of the more popular accessories
for a Ford truck. Of course there are many more such as performance
tuners and if you are going all out you can completely upgrade the
suspension. That will be another post for another day however. Until
then happy trucking my friends, hope to see you out at the truck
shows.
