Well I met BIG ORANGE today...My first impressions
Well I must say he is one heck of a nice guy.
Even bought me a sundrop This notoroius surburban I have heard about is a work of art. Pictures just dont do it justice but here are a few pics to give an idea of just how nice this truck is. Hope when I get done with my truck it comes out this good.

How much $$$ do you have invested in that burb?(Not to mention gallons of blood, swet, and tears!)

Go to a What-a-Burger and get a Cherry-Lemon-SunDrop (SunDrop with a squirt of cherry syrup and a slice of lemon).....My Favorite. SunDrop and Crown Royal make a great mixed drink......
I had never heard of SunDrop (or Cheerwine or What-a-Burger) until I moved to Concord NC in '84, moved back to good ol' KY in '89 and started seeing SunDrop around here sometime in the mid '90s. Oh!!! Nice Suburban, Big O!! |
