Saying the Peninsula of Michigan is a generalization, not stone set locale. While I'm a little whiney cause i didn't get to see the cool truck. It's understandable that someone in that type of situation would want their privacy.

Hmmm... this thread went off in a direction I couldn't have anticipated. I thought all IDI people were good natured enough to understand its purpose. Since that's not the case, I'll lay it out for you.

First off, the guy is worthy of your respect and admiration. He has been through a lot and has made something of himself coming from a great disadvantage. He does have a really cool truck. So how are we to acknowledge him without pics or speaking his name? With this thread of course. He IS reading it. I have been PM'ed by him about it. If he wanted you to know his name, he would step forward.

The second purpose was not so much to mess with your minds, but to make you realize there are indeed things that happen at the rally that stay at the rally. Fun things. Interesting things. Things not really worth talking about here, but that were definitely worth living.

Is a na na na na kind of thing? Maybe. Some of you could have came, but elected not to. Some of you wanted to, but just couldn't. Every good story and picture than comes out of the rally is indeed a "the have's and the have not's" for those who came versus those who didn't. If you come to the rally next year, this guy is going to make an effort to attend. You would get to meet him. So if the intrique is killing you, make plans to attend. If you can go on living knowing that there are secrets you can't know, then you're fine. If it bugs you that I've used this as a way to tweak your intentions for next year, then I'm sorry. But like they say in the publicity business, there is no such thing as bad publicity. LOL

WEIRD !!!!! The sentence "the quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" uses every letter in the English language. 111,111,111 x 111,111,111 = 12,345,678,987,654,321

All this talk of mystery men and their mystery machines...I bet when everything is said and done, the mask will be pulled off and we'll see that it was Old Man Carruthers! And he would've gotten away with it if it wasn't for you meddling kids!! -cuss

Guys, relax. The man just likes his privacy and I don't blame him. When I have the ability i will probably post pics of my truck but I myself won't be in them. I am a little camera shy.
There are lots of reasons for not wanting pics of your home, vehicles, or loved ones on the web. And you know once it's out there you can't take it back.

I would love to come to the rally but I can't ever seem to afford to. It's a long way for me as well as others. Maybe in the future I can change that and make one.
But I'm glad those that can attend get to have fun!

I understand fully his intent to keep his truck private. We should respect his wishes. I generally refuse to pose for photographs. Around these parts though, we get lots of european tourists, and they are known to snap pictures of the full-size trucks around here and post them on the internet back home for their friends to see, since these trucks are a rarity over there. I imagine, knowing how most europeans are, that the comments associated with those trucks are probably not very nice.

Not true. I was among at least 2 other powerstrokes that showed up


We brought two PSD's ourselves... I was surprised at how few there were this time...


Also, this guy's truck was a one of a kind, as was he.. I do hope he makes it to Ron's rally next year. I would like to get a better look at his truck! ;Sweet
