According to my wife and my somewhat lighter wallet since I joined club Polk, you guys are a bad influence and should be avoided at all cost:p
.... seriously though, I am pleased to say that I begin a new job on monday which will put me in the City of Brotherly Love, Philly for those of you that though San Fransisco was:D...


I am glad to be getting off the unemployment roll and back to work, but that means for the next week I will not be here on the forum. All I ask is that Curt behaves himself while I am gone:p

With the new gig comes new money that I am certain you guys will be happy to help me spend!!!:cool:

    Congratulations on your new job. I think you'll like the city of "Brotherly Love". After a couple of months, tell us if you like Pat's or Geno's for the Philly cheese steak.

    Hopefully you're chevy doesn't break down on your first commute! lol ;)

    Anyways, i hope all works out with the new job, and again, good luck! :D

    That statement makes no sense. You have it completely backwards. Don't you remember? We came to the conclusion that Ford stands for Found On Road Dead. Apparently you forgot about that part:p j/k

    It won't break down. If it's a Chevy anyway.;)

    Ok bud, there's a huge list of what chevy stands for, and why they suck, in my F-150 thread. Keep living in denial, and i'll make sure i honk my horn and laugh when i see you getting hooked up to a tow truck because your engine $hit the bed, or when your **** end bottoms out, your brakes fail, and your tires blowout because your truck can't handle a load!!!...haha..:p:p;)

    I know your going to come back with something, cause i think it's in your nature lol. But this kind of fight will never end, ford vs chevy is a timeless debate. So, i'm done........:D

    Right you are...it's one of the most pointless debates you can have...and I've been in it to many times, with to many people...lol...

    It's all pretty stupid though...I don't absolutely hate Ford like a lot of Chevy fans out there...there are plenty of Fords that I'd LOVE to own.

    Bet you were expecting something a little more energetic than that huh?:p

    The only way to solve this is with a race. I'll put up my 99 Silverado Z71 against your F-150. It's a company work truck...and it only has the 5.3 liter in it...not the 5.7. That should make it a more even race.;):p

    j/k...I too am done with this debate. I've had it to many times...lol

    LOL....I'll be honest, Fords and Chevys are the only trucks i consider REAL trucks. One of my buddies has an 08 Silverado, and as much as we battle, we compliment each other just as much on our trucks. We work together as well, and have the best looking trucks in the parking lot!!! lol

    If for some reason i couldn't get a Ford, i'd have no problem buying a Chevy. But shhhhhhh, that's between you and me (and the rest of the internet)! lol...:D

    Stop at Tony Luc's for lunch on Oregon Ave, you won't be sorry. Or Primo Hoagies. There is one of those in Center City and one on Ritner & Colorado Streets.

    Great company to work for, my sister works for Verizon, (well now it's Fairpoint up here, Verizon got bought out). She's been there for many many years, excellent pay and benefits, union, all that stuff.
