Although active Sep 23rd, he's not posted since July but I can assure you that he and Terry are still good friends as I am with both of them.

Stev-o is right.  All the Cb’s on facebook have skateboard seats and improperly assembled rear brake bars

Hey guys, I don't go on there just for the CB stuff, I have friends all around the world and a lot of them are on there, it allows me to keep in touch with most of them including my family spread all over the place.
