Default Looking for an old post...

I remember there was something on the thread about: HEY YOOPR, HOW COLD IS IT?

I've been searching for it for a few hours now, and I can't find it. It had a post about how "MINNESOTIANS HANDLE WINTER", and I was going to copy it and show it to some friends down here in FL. They can't understand why my truck is so crusted with salt this week.

Anybody know just what thread it was?

Thanks.

Windwalker if you can click on YOOPR's name on some posting or somewhere it'll take you to his profile. There you can click to see all his postings. If you click on the search at the top of a page maybe you can find it that way. Other than that I'm not sure. BOL Drive safe everyone.

Yeah,if Yoopr replied to it,you can find it. However,Yoopr has so many posts,it would take a long time to find it. :P

Windwalker,seems like I have seen something like that. I may see if I can find it.

Edit::::Windwalker,maybe these 2 might help ya. If not,maybe I can look more. :P

I don't just have to click on Yoopr to search for it. Roadhog was in it too. The guy that posted it is from Green Bay, WI, and has enough posts that it would take a couple of days to find it too. But it was HIS memory I was hoping to jog. Seems to me it was the "Rev V" that posted it.

Wasn't me, but I think this is the thread you are looking for:

http://www.classadrivers.com/phpBB2/...520&highlight=

Of course, YOU started that thread, so I don't know if that's the one.

No. I checked that one out, and it's not it. I don't remember if it was on one of Yoopr's posts or one started by Roadhog.

I also like the pic Lady North Star posted with the truck that dropped through the ice up there. Most of the people down here can't even imagine doing anything like that. One lady asked me: "Can't they at least put blacktop down first?" :lol: :lol:

In all fairness, Jackrabbit379 did post the link to it, so you should thank him. :wink:
