    Bama's Xtreme Pickup Bed Make-Over

    Bama, I wasn't aware of that on the '08s! That fixes my greatest complaint with them! You will certainly find it useful from time to time. In the meantime, sounds like it will be tucked out of the way! Carry-on!!!

    Garage ceiling storage question

    I found a couple of metal cage panels (kinda like chain-link fence with a metal frame around it) that I suspended from the ceiling. I hung it over the overhead door tracks so that you don't even see it when the garage door is open. My neighbor liked it so much he did the same! This is...

    *Time to buy* This is how you know we are getting near the bottom. The stock market has dropped to bargain prices, now it's time to go hit the 'clearance racks'! Buffett says 'Buy American' "Warren Buffet, the world's richest man, said that he is buying US stocks even though the...

    Dave/Mike, I totally agree with both of you! I am weary of the entitlement mentality that says "the gov't/others is resposible from protecting me from myself". I mostly was commenting on the "This is all Fannie/Freddie's fault" rhetoric. Oh, if it were only that simple... Fannie/Freddie...

    A rough few months, hoping things will be better

    One day real soon you will have the opportunity to look back and see how you pulled yourself out of the ditch! I've been there myself, and I'm sure many will agree that while it isn't fun to go thru, you sure get a lot of satisfaction after you recover and look back to see where you were! It...

    I don't neccesarily disagree with your logic, but the simple fact that multitudes of banks are collapsing under the weight of these risky loans (of late: Wachovia/WaMu/Ameriquest/Lehman Bros.) tells me that they wrote scores and scores of these loans, while NOT having a buyer. They can't blame...

    Bama's Xtreme Pickup Bed Make-Over

    I don't know enough about it to neccesarily recommend it, but they now sell DIY kits. Maybe someone here has done so and could advise!? It can't be a terribly complicated process, and most of the cost to have it done is labor Product description w/reviews (Scroll down to see reviews)...

    Private sector loans, not Fannie or Freddie, triggered crisis This article was released on the wire yesterday, and I agree with it. Fannie Mae does not create loans, nor does Freddie Mac. They simply purchase the loans created in the private sector (Ameriquest/WaMu/et. al) A former WaMu...

    As I've said all along.... I agree with Dogman entirely! I got flamed for voicing that unpopular fact after the hurricanes interupted production, and stopped pipeline transport to the south, all at a time when CRUDE was at an all time $high$. Demand was instantly HIGH, while refined fuels...

    Okay, I was poking a little sarcastic fun :nudge at those "oil company conspiracy theorists" out there! So many are quick to blame the oil companies when the price goes up, then grow silent when the price drops! Who gets that credit? Just having a little fun... :tongue2 ...while beating a...

    Bama's Xtreme Pickup Bed Make-Over

    Bama, I have the rubber bed mat and like it just fine. Every once in a while I haul some dirt or tree limbs, and have to wash under it. But that is rare. Bed-Extender: You may have experienced one yourself, which will negate any contrary opinion of mine. But, if you have never owned one, I...

    What's a good year for 6.0's

    I have an '04 with 75kmi, and couldn't be happier! Most of the members here have 6.0, because there were more of those built. You can read thru the 6.0 forums for yourself, and you won't see any cronic complaints. There are more rumors out there than witnesses who lived them. I say, don't...

    04 6.0 as daily driver

    Go ahead and pull the trigger, go to a diesel F-250. You'll probably never go back! Mine is an '04 6.0, daily driver. My wife prefers to ride in it, over her Nissan! I've never had any trouble with it, and the modification possibilities are endless!

    LED lightbar

    I am interested in adding a flashing white LED pkg to my truck. I have seen quite a few options, from lightbars, to dashmount, to integrated in the light fixtures. Curious if anybody has researched, purchased, and installed LEDs, and if so, what variation? Thx~

    If I could, I would refer you to the Post-Gustav "price-gouging" thread that got beat into the ground. It looks like it was removed, I would asume because it got rather volatile. As I tried to convey in that thread, prices were increasing due to the impending short supply. I got flamed for...

    Humor On a lighter note...

    If any of you missed SNL this past weekend, Tina Fey played Sarah Palin to a TEE!!! I had to pause my TIVO and look at her to see if it wasn't really Palin! I don't think anyone will find it offensive, no matter your political affiliation. They pretty much played it down the middle...
