it was all in jest, it is much easier to get 70s in Canada but even so, a pair of 75 troopies and a pair of street legal 75 is rare.
sadly, one troopie belongs to a gent in Alberta, the other troopie belongs to a gent from the States, one 75 is mine, the other belongs to a gent from near Ottawa as well as one 70 hard top.
they are in my yard but not mine.
Dieseldog has a lovely assortment as i have tipped my hat to him in the past, i do so again.
 
Your efforts at diplomacy are greatly appreciated. The last time we disagreed it resulted in the War of 1812, which of course our history books said we won. :D
 
Did your history books mention that we managed to burn your White House? :hhmm:

Canadian arsonist :D

I live in the South and our history books don't even mention that we lost the Civil War. We are lead to believe that both sides simply called a "cease fire." :)
 
We get the same story up here. In Ottawa where I live we have our National War Museum and this summer one of the main exhibits is the bi-centennial of the war of 1812.
Wife took the kids and a friend up from Florida to this exhibit a few weeks ago, a little fact they learned, it was during that war that the first recorded writings of Canadians calling themselves Canadians appeared in print.
So if you Americans had not of invaded Canada in 1812, I don't know what we would be calling ourselves ;)

Indeed. I confess to a healthy amount of jealousy at your 15-year rule and the Canadian Spirit. Huzzah! Carry on, and bring in more treasures.
 
Naw....they made the right choice - eh?

I agree..:). We in the States really need Canada .... Well actually you just need your 70 Series Cruisers. :D
 
Thank God for those people who enjoy fried foods. Their willingness to sacrifice their arteries provided me with this 50 gallons of used oil. :D ..... soon to be bio diesel.

Do u need any modification done to ur truck to allow it to use bio diesel? And what is the process of converting used oil to bio diesel? :eek:

No modifications are required in the climate that I live in. I am able to use bio-diesel approximately 8 months out of the year. I normally keep bio-diesel in the front tank and commercial diesel in the rear.
Look under "Diesel Tech .... Alternative Fuels" and if you have any additional questions just drop me a P.M. :)
 
still loving your rig.....very nice indeed

Thanks, If you find yourself in the deep (deeper) south drop by and take it for a spin. :)
