If it's okay with you I might put up some chess problems here too. But maybe not. I don't much feel like working today. lol I'm going to kick back a bit, between Beethoven's and here. How do you feel about it? Do you want some chess here, or not? ID: 309083 ·

Your competition: Nah, you'd win hands down. Moby Truck is a masher, not a puller, and he's a Monster either going forward or especially backing up. I have lots of witnesses. lol (btw, this bus isn't really my 3/4 ton white Ford van, but you get the idea, right?) P.S. EEK! That picture is really wide, it's stretching our window. Have you got a smaller one? ID: 309924 ·

It's not really mine, Cap'n, but it captures the spirit of mine: which is a 3/4 Ton Ford van that crunches other vehicles something awful, even at only 10 k/h. You should see it's victims.

Hahahah! Not for the faint of heart or the thin of wallet. Well, I can go about 2600 miles before filling up again... Your F250 probably costs more, fuel wise. EDIT: If I am towing something, it WILL run out of fuel at 2400 miles...go ahead, ask me how I know... ID: 309949 ·
