So I was headed back from Independent 4x after installing a set of Heavy Duty tie rods and picking up some sway bar bushings (write-ups on another popular website) and I stopped at a Flying-J to fuel-up. I looked over and saw this beast at the pump:

I stopped him and talked to him for a few minutes. He was on his way back home from Wyotech. The truck certainly is a lot taller than it was before. We parted ways and I snapped one more photo on the way out:

A similar deal happened to me week before last. I was a PF Changs in Germantown w/ some customers. We nearly closed restaurant. When we left restaurant, I noticed a nicely built trooper parked beside my company vehicle. It was Ducktrooper. He was also entertaining clients in same restaurant. Neither of us saw the other, even though resaurant was 90% cleared out by the time we left.

This reminds me of the time that Joe Darlington was headed to Windrock and just happened to run into and Doug at Crowder RV in Bristol, TN.


Hey Robby, this wasnÆt the same gas station that you stopped at right as we were getting off of the phone, was it?

(IÆm still working on how *I* managed to make it into the tread title though ::shrug:: )

No, that was a later stop. That thing gets great gas mialdge. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/shiner.gif" alt="" /> I belive you being in the tital has something to do with the fact that you seem to have a camera permantly attached to your hand. <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/lol.gif" alt="" />
