The only thing I miss about living there, besides the BBQ that I miss a lot, is the shop I ran before I moved out here. Best boss/owner I ever worked for.

What shop was that?

I like this area a lot. Very few other places I'd rather live

Besides Arthur Bryant's, where I ate at a lot, my next favorite is the Smokestack in Martin City on 71 south. The battered onion rings are the best I have ever had, if they haven't changed the recipe. It is hard to find a bad BBQ place on either side of the state line.

07Burb, worked for an independent shop called Dale's Automotive right off the freeway in Lenexa. The single most smartest tech I have ever been around and the best guy I know. I hated leaving there. If I could have folded his shop up and put him and it in my back pocket, I would still be working for him. The local Kansas and Mo. AAA used him as an arbitrator when a AAA customer had a complaint with another shop. Can't write for $hit but smart with vehicles.

Yeah Smokestack is a tasty place as well I went there a lot as a kid because I grew up right off 150 hwy in LS and that was a straight shot west on 150 into Martin City. That part of town has REALLY grown in the last few years!! there are so many good places to choose from here

Yeah I know Dale's Automotive

I used to love driving to Martin city for BBQ in the spring and summer because if I had the a/c on I would turn it off and roll my window down about 1 mile out and wait for that BBQ smell to hit me. My mouth would start watering and I could not wait to get in there. They had, don't know if they still do, a huge assortment of bottled beer from around the world that they displayed around the restaurant on shelves. I think I tried about 50 of them.

If you ever have him work on something for you, tell Dale Ron says hi! Great guy! His rep is top notch. I worked for him as service manager for about 7 years.

I usually work on my own stuff but if I'm in there I'll definitely give him a shout for you

Phil...do you happen to still have the hood for your 2500? If it's just laying around I would be more than happy to take it off your hands for you.

Oh of course I do! I'd be a bad enthusiast if I didn't at least ask.

Are there any local truck/chevy clubs around here that meet regularly?
