Troy, Alabama here (well Banks, well really Ebenezer).
Where the deer and turkeys eat from my wife's flower beds right beside the house. I have moved several times over the last 10 years (working in Oil & Gas). Originally raised in Mobile county. Now I call this place (Troy) home, it's really nice country, especially after living in the flat lands of Southeast Texas and South Louisiana for 10 years. It used to be that, in South Louisiana, after a 2" rain, you couldn't cut grass for 3-4 days (boggy). Now if I get a 2" rain in the morning, I can start cutting grass the same afternoon - HA! Still working offshore, though. Been wanting a 4 x 4 crew cab diesel for about 12 years - now I finally got it. I really, really like it so far.

We're based at RMC but we don't actually work for them though. They just let us hang out and park our helicopter here.

West Anniston huh? Is a .45 ACP standard tool box issue for now. That's a rough side of town in places.

Thanks about my truck.

Hey,
I just joined today. Live near Wedowee, AL for the past 3 1/2 years. Still trying to get familiar with the area. Did find the closest fishing hole!

I've lived in Tuscaloosa all my life. I used to go to Anniston once a week and pick up carport frames and metal building frames at Waldrop Carports Mfg.

Im from the Columbus, GA area about 10 minutes from the AL border. Im originally from Savannah, and theres a great shop out that way in Garden City, but thats 4 hours from here so it would probably be really far for you to drive. I looked around here and couldnt find a shop on par with that one.

Yeh - that would be a long way. But then again, I don't know of any good diesel mechanics around my area yet (hope I don't ever need one - LOL). Thanks for the info though. You never know.
