Saw the light on, thought I'd pop in for a beer and a cigar....

Hey Folks, Rick here, stumbled across your forum last week while I was trying to update some stuff and saw Mr. Betts thread about our little goody we invented a while back. So I figured wth, you can never be a member on too many 4x4 forums. Specially since I've owned about two dozen or more since high school----a long, loooong time ago. I'm back into IH's now and my d/d is a topless '76 Traveler. Big, cheap fun and an absolute fricken blast driving around So Cal and now out here s/east Arizona. Gots a zillion miles of trails, desert and forests over here-----and my door is always open for anyone passing thru Pearce. Just ring me up and if you don't like my cooking then at least I can teach you how to drink..... Cheers, Rick

Nah, I should be fine, C. I was born & raised in M/B. I was very adept at protecting my skinny little butt with a twin fin.....

Took me a minute to interpret that. You are from the South Bay? I live in Old Town Torrance, just one street over from Torrance High. I was actually born and raised in the Sierras in Bishop, CA so I am not much of a surfer, but I do know what twin fin actually is!

 

[Ricky B]

Yup, Manhattan Beach, back in the good ole days. Mira Costa, '74. Place was an absolute blast growing up in----but now I can't even afford to fricken drive thru it........



(oh yeah, truck pics)

 

[cbetts]

Yeah, I hear you! I wouldn't be able to afford it either if it wasn't for finding a job at Raytheon (formerly Hughes Aircraft) in El Segundo. One day I will leave Commiefornia, but not while the pay is good!

 

[Bigunit]

Nice rig!

 

[zackcrum]

Love the truck!

Why not boeing? They pay well, have great retirement, and great benefits.

Fortunately, I hired in at Raytheon when they still had a pension. I also get 401K matching and some really good medical. No complaints here.
