The Birthday Thread Got Me Thinking... What Have YOU Done In The Last Year
Well DieselBombers.com is now a year old... As we can see the site has come a LONG way from the idea that started in Dieselminded's head, and we all know that that is a scary place, and it has turned into the Internet powerhouse it is today... All in a year... We all know how far the site has come... But what about the members? How far has your diesel come in a year or since you started coming on this site? Lets hear a story maybe with some pics of what you have done to your truck in the year. Maybe you Bombed the hell out of it... Maybe you found a new love for it... maybe you just made a stock truck more reliable. I wanna know what has been going on with YOU!
I'll start!
When i found this site I had just bought my first Diesel... Like it was DAYS old... it's is a 06 Dodge Cummins. Since I got it I have put in guages, 4" Silverline exhaust (which I won off here in what I think was the first giveaway), and a SMARTY.
I also bought a 89 CTD to use as a pulling truck... So far it is stock but with the help of the 1st gen section I think it won't stay that way for long!
I also have a 97 P30 van for work with a non-turbo 6.5 in it... Stock as Stock can be... But it gets the job done and my bills paid!
I am also a sponsor on the site now... Who saw THAT coming?!?!
The best thing this year has given me though is that I have also made more friends that I can count... People that I know if I broke down by their house I could call them and they would come get me. People that care when stuff is going wrong. I know it's corney as hell but I think of alot of them like Family. Hell I even let one of the bastards sleep in my house for a weekend
That's what has happened in the last year of my life on DieselBombers.com... I have gone from a non-diesel owner to having 3 in the driveway and being a Sponcor on my favorite site... now it's your turn... Who knows... Might be a hat for the person with the best story!

Well When the site started my truck had more goodies on it then it does now ,
I cant talk about the site much out side of the site as , Im obviously excited for its future and end up looking like the One Time at Band Camp Girl
I find it astounding how people have bonded on the site and ask opinions on very important things thats going on in there lives , Its True Were a community for sure I consider alot of you Friends
When talking out side of the site and i say something like
My Buddy in Canada ......
People just think im Full of it
I have a note book and just about everyday at work i write down things that pop in my head along with a TO DO LIST , then challenge my self to get all them done before i go back to work after my days off , I flipped back to the first few days today at work , Man I was so Clueless....
I really dont know how we did this , But im glad we did because we have gotten so much enjoyment from it

But here's the old truck (I did get rid of those goofy batwing looking tow mirrors with some with the same frame, but weren't out so far)
The worst part about losing the old truck, this was on it.
And the new truck
I now row my own gears which I like, but would love to have my black truck back. I've got the rams head off of it too.
Oh, and I would love me a hat though.

I'm with Bobby on this.... i've met SOOOOO many people that are passionate about the diesel sport. it's hard to find people that have common intrests as you unless you go to match.com...... it's nice to have a place you can call home on the net and have a bunch of brothers and sisters that live there too..... we've come a long way and i along with a few others here i know have lost alot of sleep, hair, and chances to do stuff while we were working on projects, ideas, upgrades for this site and the diesel community. i'm just glad to be here enjoying time with everyone here.... we've had our highs and lows this year.... lets make this next one even better than the last
hey i represent that last remark.....
