Default Met a really cool guy from PT today

TIM Z & I met up on his way back from getting some tuning done. Let me say this about his truck.

As I rolled into the lot, I saw him standing next to his truck. This black beauty was just shining as dusk set in.

Then the fun began. He took me for a ride. Barely got into it, & I knew it was sweet. Then he mashed it a little more. We cruised a few miles & turned around. I say.

As we went sideways, fishtailing once or twice, I was slightly concerned.

Then as we still were goin sideways from this same "episode" I realized he knew what he was doin & that he'd obviously done this before.
We went past the speed limit quite quickly.

I wasn't too worried. He did a few blasts, but was mindful of his trans issue. He then asked if it'd be OK if he scares me a bit w/. a 4WD launch. It wasn't too scary, actually, but I realized how fun a fast 4wd truck can be.

I came away impressed not only w/. his truck, but him as a person. He's a class act. Respectful & just a great guy to hang w/., as we hung out at McD after he went for a ride in my little truck.

I hope everyone that meets someone from PT has as positive as an experience.

I knew if Scott read this, I knew his reply, so I'm not too surprised.

Richard, that surprised me but still funny. I guess now I can tell u that your cousin (or sister, I can't remember which she said, as our conversation was brief but she told me nonetheless) really does have crabs; she told me after y'all slept together.

Lot of great people on this site. Guess these aren't any of them tho.
Ha, back atcha dirtbags. j/k

Seriously, his truck is nasty.

I wish it wasn't dark & I coulda videoed it. Especially as went sideways 5-6 times. So fun!!!
