There's a ball turret too, but it only extends when the truck is airborne.

That isn't from New Orleans. Here in the Big Sleazy, you need at least a 20mm to keep them at bay.

Does anyone remember the beer commercial with a B-17 in it? It was called fixing up the old lady. Thern there was a chevy commercial with the Thunderbird in it as well.

Here it is, no offence to the Texans ;)

Subject: Moving to Texas...

Jack was sitting in an airplane when another guy took the seat beside him.

The new guy was a wreck, pale, hands shaking, moaning in fear.

"Hey what's the matter?" Jack asked.

"Oh man. I've been transferred to Texas" the other guy
answered. "There are crazy people in Texas." "They have shootings, gangs,
riots, drugs, and a high crime rate."

"Hold on," Jack interrupted. "I've lived in Texas all my
life. It is not as bad as the media says. Find a nice home, go to work,
mind your own business, enroll your kids in a good school and it's as safe
as anywhere in the world."

The other passenger relaxed and stopped shaking for a moment and
said, "Oh, thank you. I've been worried to death. But if you live there
and say it's OK, I'll take your word for it. What do you do for a
living?"

"Me?" said Jack. "I'm a tail gunner on a Pepsi truck in
Plano.

Have nice day
Christophe
