DustyMojave Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 Here's me from almost two years ago checking out some REAL American made horsepower in a "pickup truck" of sorts. And nope, it is not photoshopped either. Ahhh I see hardware built in my neighborhood. Space shuttles were built in Palmdale. I drive past the facility 2x a weekday. Every time they landed in the west, I could see them coming in from my house and hear the double sonic boom. Then they would fly the 747 with the shuttle piggyback at very low altitude past my house a couple of miles away on the way towards Florida.
Mooneyzs Posted March 15, 2012 Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) My Biggest Build..LOL and my Friends Hey Jim...

Mongoose is looking a little chubby, but hey at least he is still alive and kicking. I would LOVE to meet those guys myself. Nice photo!

Danno Posted March 18, 2012 Posted March 18, 2012 Always remember rule #19 "Don't get mauled"!! Good advice right there. LOL I thought it said, "Don't get mailed." Which, if you think about today's postal service, could be the same thing! = That's more of that humor stuff, Jim.
