Road Trip This Weekend...


My buddy and I are driving to Michigan City, IN this weekend to pick up a van I just bought.

Wave if you see the Ruby truck go by!

You didn't buy one of these did you? Panel vans are out, they're no longer cool. You'll have to change your name to Chester the Molester if you did. Just a friendly heads up cuz friends don't let friends drive ChiMo vans.



This is the cool thing for contractors to drive. You're extra cool if you get a red or blue 4x4 with a big honkin winch bumper.

Don't expect a hot meal when come by here, the old lady is not too good with the stove.

You could get some beer for the back of the van.

Gettin a smokin' deal huh?

Here's a clue, if there's a dirty mattress in the back and a bag of candy on the dash he's trying to get rid of some evidence.

Be sure to pressure wash it out, DNA can be tough to remove.

All in good fun, all the same if I see you on CNN in handcuffs I'll be my ass off.
