Armed with a year of experience working
with the Honda Civic Si and a veteran team of drivers, RSR Motorsports
hopes to start the GRAND-AM Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge season
by doing something they have never done before: win at Daytona.
However, while
Ford certainly saw the potential for soaring profits by basically
eliminating their payroll costs in Mexico where the daily minimum wage
is about $4.50 a day, they did not count on their business plan becoming
another casualty in Mexico's raging drug war.
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. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chevrolet_S-10
As I started to bite into the green pod, I noticed Harvey kick
some dirt, waiting as I relived my dreams. It was hot in Hatch, but
nothing prepared me for the heat I was about to consume. Even the sun,
shining bright behind Harvey, seemed mild compared to what was happening
in my mouth. I listened to what Jake had to say and asked a few questions
of my own. I was totally shocked when I heard the dirt about what goes
on behind the scenes of the show. I picked Jakes' brain a bit with some
off the wall questions I have always had about the show and he threw in
some things I never would have had a clue took place on the set. I
thought I would make this fun and share some true or false questions
that lie behind all the media hype of ABC's number one family show.
My mother and father enjoyed much of their leisure time with
drive in movies, watching TV shows such as MASH, All in the Family,
Dukes of Hazard, and Andy Griffith. They enjoyed the music of Merle
Haggard, Freddy Hart and Conway Twitty. Lastly, they enjoyed fast cars
as well as many people did in the seventies. Drag racing was a fun event
for both my mother and my father. In the seventies my father owned a
1972 Ford Galaxy 500, 1970 Road Runner, 1973 Ranchero, and a 1976
buy truck online used. The cost of a new
vehicle was around $6000. Over all, the most rememberable event for my
mother in the seventies was in 1977 when Elvis Presley died. My
experiences at the Shadow Bar occurred more than forty years ago, but I
still wonder if I should have reported the incident when I returned to
Engineers Hill. A couple of
guys that had graduated from high school with me picked me up at the end
of my afternoon shift, and we went drinking in Lorain. We ended up in
Hannah's Bar on North Broadway just a couple of blocks south of Lake
Erie. 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.
