I am with NCFSU-2 support unit two. We are located towards the crane yard at Port Hueneme. My wife is with the 1st. NCR so we are there quite a lot. You will see my truck there, its the dark blue megacab longbed conversion, not too hard to miss. eat lunch at the exchange a lot. but now that I am a reservist, only there on the weekends. Next drill for me is on Jan 26th.
Here's a pic of my truck.

Hey Guys:
:new: from L.A., where we always have terrible winter sun storms. This bright yellow thing is always in the sky & it's always 70-80 degrees.
Finally retired the old '90 Cummins, giving it to my son in San Diego. Special ordered a 2007.5, 6.7L, 6 speed auto, one ton, single rear wheel, limited slip, 4x4 & Laramie package quad-cab. The only thing I've done so far is to put the new wheels & tires on my trailer & replacing them with American Racing 'Thug' teflon finish wheels wearing Goodrich, 12"w x 32" tall All Terrain KOs. I live near Banks in Azuza, CA & had the whole Power Pack on the old truck. I'm waiting for whole Banks package to be completed so I can do it all at once. I'm not racing but would enjoy more towing power & cooler exhaust temps while towing with a Calif. C.A.R.B. emissions approved system, just in case Calif. starts smogging diesel engines.
I ran the old Cummins on 100% home brew since December 2005 & the new truck also burns 100% biodiesel.
The only thing I miss about the old truck is the distinct 'clack/clack/clack' mechanical injected old school diesel sound idling, the french smell is gone & the fuel economy. But with 4.10s, 350 hp & 650 ft/lbs stock, burning 70 cents a gallon biodiesel... who cares!

This is a current photo of my truck. You can't really see the black teflon wheels but can you see my big red nose?
