Hanging it up.... - Competition Diesel.Com

dieseljunkie · 09-06-2011, 06:11 PM

Well, Ive been asked more than a few times "WHY" am I selling my truck. I have not been permitted to speak of the matter till today.
My wife was informed a while back that the company she works for is going to close-up shop and move to South Carolina. Recently, they decided to offer her a position down there and after much deliberation we have accepted. We do not know exactly when, but it will be this winter or spring.
I am going to be seeking a new home and career and will not have any use for a pulling truck at this time. However, I have had a blast doing it and have met alot of great people along the way. Dont worry to much because Ill still heckle all of you on the inter-webby.

forgive me if I post with a southern accent!

If that is what you call them.

Gene, you may want to hold onto that trophy it will be worth something when im a bigger pulling "HAS BEEN" than you. ha

*Snedge* · 09-15-2011, 04:39 PM

Casey. I wish you the best. Don't be a stranger, we'll find something to talk about.

Please don't set your hopes on reaching Gene's level of "HAS BEEN". If you remember, when Gene pulled and Won, they didn't have all that horsepower making it so easy for you kids now a days.

Good luck brother.
