First off, I would like to thank the individuals who sent me private messages and emails over the past couple of months, this truly is one of the best communities on the internet and I'm very proud to be a part of it. I realize I haven't been around much lately, so I don't really know what has been going on, and can't comment on it. If, however, I was forced to hazard a guess... I would imagine topics such as;

"What's the biggest tire size I can fit on my truck?"
"What's the best lift kit for my truck?"
"What's the best programmer?"
"What's the best muffler?"
"What's the best oil?"
"What's the best..."

Have all been posted 27,835,688,934 times over since I've been gone.

What I can comment on is my own life, I started a new job, bought several more vehicles... I refinanced my home and paid off a TON of outstanding debt, and probably most noteably, my wife was accepted into school. It [school] has been my wifes dream for years, and in approximately a month - she'll be leaving me for 3 years to persue her dream. The program she wants to attend is in El Paso, Texas - and I'll be remaining here in Canada to pay down the home and continue working towards owning my own company. It'll be hard, but in the grand scheme of thins, 3 years really isn't all that big a deal...

Besides, 3 years with no wife means I get to follow my dream, of building a race car. I thought long and hard about turbo'ing my 2005 HEMI RAM, along with about $10K in other mods to make it a 12-second truck. They're few and far between, especially up here in the frozen north, and seeing that I'm approximately 6'10" tall. The truck makes a lot of sense, because I actually fit in it. But at the end of the day, it's still a truck.

I still have it of course, but I've pondered selling it, even if not for my own gain... Helping my wife with tuition and other expenses related to school is far more important and would bring me greater satisfaction than I've known over the past 3 years owning my truck. It's still my baby, but sometimes you have to know when to let them go.
