Steven Sellers · 01-11-2004, 01:01 PM

My Mom-in-law lives in Waycross does that count?

padreisla · 01-11-2004, 01:24 PM

I'm in Tampa.

GMCjunkie · 01-11-2004, 01:37 PM

Oops, I forgot to mention, Im in the Valdosta area, Way southern Ga...

Good to see that I have some "neighbors"

Longhorn Man · 01-11-2004, 01:54 PM

You just need to move up here Jodie....remember the impressive turn out on the Ohio Board Meet?
Come up here, you'll have plenty of truck buddys.

Pilgrim · 01-11-2004, 02:39 PM

Palm Coast is half way between Daytona Beach and St Augustine.

Baradium · 01-11-2004, 03:21 PM

Chiming in for my brother, he's in Savannah, GA.

With this truck....

GMCjunkie · 01-13-2004, 03:46 PM

Im not sure where some of the FLA towns are, but I think k5hart is closest...Would be cool to have a get to gether when the weather gets nicer.

Andrew.....We can solve this little problem... The house right next door to me is FOR SALE.... It'd prolly be cheaper than your RENT..(was for mine) It has 3 Bedrooms, one for Justin, One for the ol lady, and one for you and your parts,,, AKA..."The Dog House".. It even has a garage!! Now how cool would that be??? THEN id have a TRUCK BUDDY!!! (See how creative I am,,,,, I amaze myself)...LOL

Baradium.. That truck is cool..... Sevannah is about 5 hours east of me I believe... So I havent seen it around here.
Most people here that have our year trucks,,, Other than "jjk3" Who is away at college

, Are owned mostly by elderly black gentleman, who could care less about anything other than it starting everyday...

Few younger guys have them, but theyre not interested in talking trucks with girls, much less "truck buddy-ing"

Grim Reaper · 01-13-2004, 04:01 PM

Should Move up here to Hotlanta.

I'd say see ya in April but I'll be be getting of 75 in Tifton to head to the beach house.

ol skool 68 · 01-13-2004, 04:08 PM

2wdBlazer · 01-13-2004, 05:10 PM

Tampa-ish here. How about a Central FL meet. Ha ha

AndrewDT · 01-13-2004, 05:24 PM

Hey, ol school 68 - I was just in Jacksonville last week. I stopped in at a lot/yard that had a couple trucks up front just to look around. Way in the back was an old Blazer. I looked in it and it had a Tach dash starring back at me! I asked the guy about it and he said if I wanted it I could have it! He loaned me the tools and I brought it home in my checked luggage. As I was taking it out I noticed it has a tilt steering and poor man's cruise - throttle control! I didn't have time to pull it all or I'd have shipped it all back to Minnesota. It's still sitting there...

ol skool 68 · 01-13-2004, 05:42 PM

i would love to know which one you went to, as i am dire need of a tilt column...........if you can remember the name of it, that would be a big help

BBB

MrGoodpliers · 01-13-2004, 05:49 PM

Present... But why is all of the good rust-free stuff on the other side of the continent? And all of the $1500 rust-free, big block frt/rr air suburbans!? It's enough to make a proud southern boy head for California!

demi · 01-13-2004, 05:51 PM

Hey GMCjunkie - the wife was looking at a house in your area for sale around Valvosta.

We will be moving this spring to either South Georgia or around Jacksonville. We are looking for a place with a little land.

She's going to transfer to the Mayo. We're kinda tired of Az.

I'm glad their will be board members close by

I can't wait.

ol skool 68 · 01-13-2004, 06:02 PM

hey demi bring some of those rust free arizona trucks with you when you come!! there aren't many around here lol

demi · 01-13-2004, 06:08 PM

Hey ol skool don't tell me that. I was hoping the south had plenty of rust free trucks. lol
That will be something I miss about Az.

I most likely will be bringing some items and vehicles back - including mine. I have a few good contacts here so even after we move I plan on trailering some more stuff back.

ol skool 68 · 01-13-2004, 06:22 PM

oh there are some good ones around, but people around here would rather let em rot than come off of parts. lol there a guy nearby that has 12 of the trucks sitting in a feild out back, and has no intentions of doing anything with any of them, but he is a real a$$ when it comes to letting anything go for a reasonable price...........but i have found some good deals, i just don't get much time to go hunting for em lol

k5hart · 01-13-2004, 08:43 PM

GMCjunkie, a get together is a good idea. That is if I'm still around. We are thinking about moving back to South Carolina (where Im from) in the next couple of months. But...this is easier said than done.

ol skool 68 I might have to try and beat you to that blazer!! That is almost worth a road trip. Jax is mighty close!! Kidding really, but if you find that blazer take a look over it and see what else might be worth salvaging. I am always looking for something.
