    By the way, again I find myself looking at your location as much as the truck. I grew up where I could go out in the back or front yard and fire off a gun without a problem. That same piece of property now has about a hundred homes on it. The city has grown from about 20k when I was born to about 225k! Man do I miss that kind of life.

    Can't exactly fire a gun off at my dad's house. He lives in one of those subdivisions with 4 to 10 acre lots. But it is a really cool, peaceful place to get creative.

    I know what you mean, I am from a Small town in Idaho(pop. 3000.) I used to go shooting in my back yard when I was younger too, but now it's so crammed, I have had the cops called on me for firin' up my straight piped 327 in my own garage in the middle of the day. fortunatley the cops were cool and just came by and talked cars.

    By the way, those headers are Bitchin'

    I spent a week at a farm in Heyburn (about 50 miles southwest of you) when I was 12, what a great place. I wonder what it is like now?
