    Welcome to TDP

    Also an Oregonian myself. Call a little Ranch north of Newberg home.
    Native of these parts for a lot of years.

    Diesel freek all the way. Did a Cat 3208 in a pickup a number of years ago for a fellow. OMG what a chore that was.

    What part of OR are you? Our oldest son lives in Grants Pass. We just went to visit last month, pretty place, even with the rain and fog.
