In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they are different.

The calendars are ready for ordering. Sorry for the delay. They were supposed to send me an email when ready. But it didn't happen.

I ordered three. Thank you so much for the recognition of the hard work me and everyone else on here puts into their trucks. It surely means the world to me to be a part of this group!!!
I enjoy doing it. I enjoy all the trucks and working with the photos. I am really glad to have your truck in the calendar. When I first saw you ppst about your project several years ago, I knew it needed to be given a spotlight.

Every year, I think there has been at least one truck that really stands out above the others. This year, there were 2, yours and RickW's. Both show dedication to a plan to see a concept become reality. Both completely different styles. Both really big projects to undertake. Both show great imagination and skill. I really want to see your truck in person in the near future. I can't imagine the hundreds of hours of sweat you've put into that truck. Bodywork is not my forte and sanding and painting are the worst parts.

Thank you.

But, you think I had a plan?

It really is great, Eric.

But but, two questions:

Where is the senior discount coupon code?

& did you talk to Lincoln’s press secretary about a photo release to use his image?

And very diplomatic:

I enjoy doing it. I enjoy all the trucks and working with the photos.
I noticed there was nothing about working with the people….

(I warned you! Let no good deed go unpunished!)

Seriously, ditto, you & all the TRS folks, first class. My inspiration and my therapy!

For those like me that can't afford much, there is a PDF option for $10. I happen to have an old laser printer and some photo paper so that's the option I'm going for.

I have this quote from Loncoln's press secretary who supplied the images.

"My favorite two (I love the one with Lincoln in the window)"

Keep your mind like an umbrella, it only works if its open... Continually learning.
Awesome work on the calendar. Wasn't expecting mine in there with all the other trucks that are far more nicer than mine. Wife plans on ordering a couple on her payday so I can have a present. LOL

Again, KUDOS to @ericbphoto and TRS.
