I Just wanted to show off my new nissans. A 2005 Frontier crew cab LE 4x4 and a 2005 Pathfinder SE. I bought the Pathfinder in February. I had wanted to Get a red Frontier but I saw the white one and thought it would be cool to have matching trucks. The Pathfinder is the wifes.

I love the design of these trucks and the engines are awesome. A bonus is that it doesn't cost me $90 to fill it up like my brothers Titan.

This is a picture of the rack set-up that I put on my Frontier. I bought a Roll-Bak hard tonneau cover for it. I wanted the flush fitting hard cover but I didn't want to have to take it off if I bought something big. I also needed something to carry my bikes. I already had the bike racks but they wouldn't mount up top so I bought the bars and towers and then the tracks and then mounted the tracks to the bed covers side tracks. It was really easy to do.

This picture shows the bed cover rolled up into it's canister and you can see how I put the smaller tracks on top of it. The bike rack and towers are totally removeable and it only takes about five minutes. It all locks too so no one but me can get the stuff off. All of my rack components also mount onto the Load Warrior basket that I have on the Pathfinder.

Yeah rough, because that hotel probably cost you $25 a day didn't it? 

Yep, there's 3 of us on here that I remember.  Joehova was on his way to Colorado, but that was a few months back.  I haven't heard from him since.  I hope he made it alright.  He was in Barksdale LA, but he was supposed to leave right before the storm hit. 

I'm a mechanic for the AF and work on Forklifts and Cargo Loaders.  A rough job because I'm always in demand.  I got one of the lucky drawings to do 8 months... LOL.  Really though, I volunteered to do TCN duty in Iraq (watch the local contractors come on base and work).  But that didn't keep me from doing my normal rotation, so I had to forward deploy to Bagram. 

I'm glad you said the Orions , because if you did anything with the A-6s I would have to give you a week vacation.  Those suckers did nothing but annoy, and piss us off.  Plus they about gave me a heart attack my first week in Bagram.

When they were coming in to circle to land, they would power down right over the AF camp, and it would sound EXACTLY like one of 107mm rockets the Iraqis shot at us in Kirkuk.  First day I woke up to that, I was like "ohhhh sh*t"  Later on we cursed the suckers because of the damn high pitched whine they put out at full throttle.  And the stupid things were parked right in front of our shop.
