So, like, is a Truckblog Mobile one of these things you hang from the ceiling and it goes round and round when the wind blows?

I never got my free sticker!

But, people, please. It's $10.00 for a freakin' year.

Pay up!

Plus, check out MusclecarBlog. Most of you with hot trucks also have hot cars, right??

Honestly, I don't care where the money goes. It is worth the price. No question.

If you're a super duper member, you get flamed stickers...



No, but Truckblog has got a shit ton of awesome features, and the mobile part I like a lot since I'm never in front of a PC long enough to write any good posts.

Kick back atmosphere, good people...and EDITORS that are always on the lookout for cool stuff to add to the web page.

I mean, just look at all the content on the home page...REAL NEWS. Not just a bunch of ads.

And real people. I've had the opportunity to meet the entire crew at SEMA last year (well, Mike prior to SEMA, but that's cuz we were both in Houston.) My only regret? Not going to SEMA the year before! I mean, talk about a bad ass crew...

...and for you members that I've spoken to over the phone, emailed...you know we're all real people with day jobs, trying to make a dollar.

So, that being said, the money goes to a good place - fast web/server/hosting things that make the site run smooth...I mean, it's not free or anything. (that's the extent of my internet knowledge.)

But yeah, MIKE, CHRIS - KEEP OF THE KICK ASS JOB!!!

JASON, JASON, MIKEY - you guys ROCK!

And LYNN - next time you're up here...

GREG AND TOM - dood, it's been too long. the last (and first) time I saw you was what....two cars ago, when you guys at the Screw and Expy at the Enumclaw show.

DEV - Next time in Boston!

Cheers to the CREW!

You're so right Denny. It has been too long. Matter of fact - I think the last time I saw Greg was at the Seattle Roadster show (when Lynn was here).

While we don't have chapter here (who needs them anyway?) we do have our regular buddies - even if we don't see each other for two years or more!

Denny - if you ever have need to come down to the corporate offices - let me know. I'll hook up with ya!

Greg - I will call. We will have lunch - no shit!

Man I feel like I need to hug someone after reading all this.

Seriously though. Good stuff happening here. Glad I'm in on the "groundfloor".

All you new guys will grow to appreciate it more,the more you frequent it.

Now, where do I get my hug?

I've seen where a few folks have complained about all the swearing here, but as posted above, being a paid member gives a TON of options to include profanity filter/rating system controls. I love that part when my kids happen to be around. My all time favorite benefit of this site, besides all the great people, is the gallery. It's nice to
load a photo and not lose anything about it's appearance.
