Never notice my Missouri accent until in another state and people point it out. They say we drawww out the end of words.
Safe travels!!!

#202 4 years ago
Quoted from PinDeLaPin:

Accents? What do you think we are from arkansas? :DGet that damn game and post a sale pic.

Well I didn’t know lol People ask if I’m from Canada when I’m on vacation all of the time! Won’t be driving through St. Louis my dude or I would be holding down that horn a mile away just for you

t-minus 40 minutes

Do people in MO have accents?

I’m from the bootheel, far southeast corner of Misery, I mean Missouri, and hell yes, we’re straight up rednecks.

#205 4 years ago

why not? Turn it into a little adventure. I've only done a 12 hour haul and my wife and I turned it into a mini road trip. Maybe find a cool restaurant or something nearby. Good luck!

#207 4 years ago

I think we are all expecting a picture of you and the seller shaking hands after loading that machine up in your truck

#208 4 years ago

Praying seller described it accurately.

Oh damn you had to go there didn't you? I would be beyond pissed off if it was not as advertised at this point.

Hah, I just had a flashback of a long drive only to say “nah, I’ll pass” and leaving disappointed. I’m sure this will go ok.

Yep, it is an unfaded cab. Which was one of the main reasons I bought it initially.

Last 4 hours here we go! Starting to feel it I’ll calculate it when I get home but all in all around $150, but I don’t stop and eat regularly...

Yep! Just about to pass the border

#227 4 years ago

Welp, know your limits. If you feel drowsy, find a room. If you are feeling fine, then cool. Just be careful.

As promised for Blitzburgh99

The story has come to an end folks. I’ve been up for 48 hours and drove for 24 of them and I would be damned if I didn’t play this pin before I crashed. It’s -14 right now so I brought the machine into the house vs. the game room in the detached garage. I’ll post more pictures tomorrow in the lineup but once again I want to thank everyone for having fun with me the last number of days in this thread and the support to keep me going today so this mouse could make it home safely.

Sincerely,

Peter

P.S. Want to give a huge shout out to Gov for his flexibility and willingness to facilitate in making all of this happen. He’s a solid dude.

Well Done, Sir!

A trip for the ages and a sweet System 11 to show for it. Bravo.

#246 4 years ago

Congrats, you are a mad man. The plus side is you can get of your wanted ad now.

#247 4 years ago

That Mouse looks Great, you weren't messing around!

#248 4 years ago

Maybe I’ll continue my Taxi journey in this thread for tomorrow. Not nearly as crazy as yours but will be fun nonetheless

#249 4 years ago
