Vegas Teacher Posted September 24, 2018 Report Share Posted September 24, 2018 Hey did anybody stop in at the truck stop just outside of Joplin Mo. last weekend for the Semi Chrome and Custom show? Truck stop is just off of I-44. I thought maybe somebody on the way to the Rally might have come through there. Later, Cory O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She is into the idea of interior decorating and exterior decorating on the truck. Chrome will be like curtains to her, along with extra lights and flashy stuff. I tried to tell her the old saying, "Chrome won't get you Home." She does not care she thinks it looks good. I guess it is fun to have her in this frame of mind now.

Now what the little woman may have in mind for the interior, that I am afraid could be the makings of a second mortgage on the house.

Pete Kildow Posted September 29, 2018 Report Share Posted September 29, 2018 Don't talk like this. Going there next month around the 20th. Pick up a new front bumper for my KW. And I just know my wife is going to load the pickup with chrome. There may not be much for a Volvo. But a Kenworth there's way to much chrome.And not enough cash, makes Pete sad.

Anyone that bought a truck, was not right in the head. So I fit right in with the best of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
