Spring has sprung and so has the Lacrosse

Spring is here, the sun is out, so I decided to spring the ol Lacrosse from its short slumber! Time to let the tow pig breathe and slam diesel like a college kid at a homecoming party!

let the cool mods, trouble shooting, and fish tales of towing mpg begin!!

did you change wheels on your tv - your profile photo shows chrome ones.

I was in Lubbock a couple of weeks ago - cannot believe the growth. I brought my new 1987 Chevy 1/2 ton pick up at a Chevy dealer on the corner of loop 289 and slide road - long gone along with the Albertsons across the street.

The Don Crow and Brucken both are familiar - it was one of those. No 0:300 phone call for you.
