Russ, If you're running low on stall space, you can park that 3000 in my carriage shed.

My father tells a funny story in relation to this song. His mother was painfully religious, southern baptist to be specific. She played the piano and thought he should to, so he could play in church of course. One day she stepped away during a lesson, and in her absence, he picked out a little piece of Shotgun Boogie on the keys. She came running back into the room howling like a banshee and proceeded to beat him over the head with her bible. Thankfully it wasn't a particularly large or heavy version, so he escaped mostly unscathed. I believe that was his last piano lesson. He still laughs every time he tells it, I'll have to remind him to tell me again next weekend in the duck blind.

Hi Todd , I have been a Jeep Nut for years and couldn't survive without four wheel drive so ,I have a 1997 ,Cherokee Sport ,I use like a Farm Wagon ,I haul my Dogs ,pull my wood trailer four wheel ,just about any thing you can think of ,I bought it new and it now has nearly 200,000 Miles ,I had a 2001 but it got terrible gas mileage so I let it go and purchased a 2014 ,Patriot Latitude ! It's pretty Gussied up with all of the modern toys ,Electric Remote Start ,etc.etc. etc. ! I never cared for Brown ,but for some reason ,this color really grabbed me and this vehicle is Very Brown with a neat metal Flake and it sort of appears an odd Green at times and Black at others and then again ,BROWN !!!!!!!! It is much roomier and more comfortable than any of my other Jeeps I have owned previously ,especially my first an old Willy's , that should have been enough to cure me on buying Jeeps but some of us never learn !
