    My avatar flag in back window along with the Imperial German flag because I am 87.5% kraut and in the late 1800's when they hopped the pond that was the flag flying. A Ram head hood ornament I appropriated from a old dodge pickup. And an uncle Sam calling it like I see it cuz it didn't kill my ancestors to learn the language when they came here!

    My exterior is pretty much stock except for a mild 2" lift and a picture of a bass in the corner of the rear window.

    The engine however has just about every bolt-on power mod available, and there isn't a single part of my sound system that's still stock including the wiring.

    I doubt I'll ever spend the time and money on power modifications on my next vehicle now that I have a house and family. But I've become pretty picky about how my music sounds, and most cars don't do it justice from the factory.

    When I was a kid, we didn't say much about my mother's German ancestry. Back in the 40's and 50's, there was still a lot of "hate" and criticism. I married a wonderful lady who's mother was 100% German. We can openly talk about it now, but back then, it was something we avoided except for the food.

    I've thought about peeing on the wheels, but haven't done so yet.

    Our one dog in particular just HAS to do this no matter who's vehicle it is. He even peed on the neighbors car tire when it was parked inside his garage.

    So that brings that Cummins up to what, like 220 HP?

    I know, I know, it's really about the torque!

    :rofl: :lol:

    When we would add pin striping to our cars back in the day, we would stand back , admire the improvement and jokingly say it adds about 30HP!

    Back when tuners were big I used to love seeing the big "Type R" stickers on the Mazda's and Nissan's.
