You have never heard the reason GM put the hooks in the front is so when the FORD is towing you it won't mess up the bumper. Sadly I have heard a lot of them still love me Chevys.

im with you buddy, my 89 ranger had 273,000 on it when i sold it, and she still runs great.

lukasmcdukas · 09-10-2009, 05:44 PM

agreed, your service is much appreciated. im from a military family (dad's Army National Guard, served 1 tour in Iraq, took shrapnel in a bombing in Camp Marez) my brothers are both Navy boys, the youngest is on his way to BUDS to become a SEAL. I told him if he rings the bell, I'd wring his neck. I was a Navy boy before my vision went down the tubes and they said I wasn't fit for service

and now i work for the Navy as a civilian.
Thanks for answering the call!

My closest Army base to me is Ft Sill in Lawton, OK about an hour Southwest of here. But Tinker Air Force Base is 10 minutes away. There is a member here who has a son stationed at Ft. Sill too.

bradrhale · 09-15-2009, 04:12 PM

Ft. Hood, Killeen Texas is my closest one. believe the nearest AF base in Dover in Monroe.

I have Lukes Air Force out here. If you wanted to know.
