The day I decide to drive the wife's new ecoboost escape to work I see this driving southbound on Dixie road on fort Benning Georgia. Doubt he's on here. The other black screw I see often has a huge dent in the left side rear passenger door but it's too clean probably a street queen

I was in Boise for my daughter's graduation and saw a Rhino Rush Raptor yesterday. Shortly after I saw a trailer and motor home, I guess I was near their headquarters. Picture is from their Facebook page.

A year ago today a F5 tornado ripped through Moore, OK killing 25 people, including 9 children in Plaza Towers Elementary School. These weather chasers were on top of the storm and pinpointed exactly where the path was going to hit. Unfortunately life's were taken, but these advance warning storm chasers driving Raptors and other stations saved thousand of life's last May. KFOR has a 8,500-pound, aerodynamic vehicle skinned with 16-gauge steel and covered with Kevlar called the Dominater that has been inside a F4 tornado. I live about 2 miles from KWTV 9 in OKC and see these guys out all the time when sever weather is in the forecast! These guys are true hero's!
