It's about 25 miles from Johnson City. Near the base of Bays Mountain.
I'm a member there also and they have some decent facilities.
How far would it be from Johnson city? -
I have to say, what sort of spanking would cause a young girl to run like that???
Also, what would you have done if she wasn't wearing polka dots and was wearing a hoodie?

I bought a box of 100 WWB two weels ago at Walmart for $35.97+ tax

It's normal on a Chevy. If you want, try some higher octane fuel. I usually run some seafoam through the pcv valve and then change the oil. That seems to quiet it down some.
The pinging won't hurt your truck, just like the other poster said. It's a common problem.

I'll be there on Saturday probably. The last two have been pretty decent. Wasn't too crowded and the prices were reasonable.

Well there was interesting thing that happened to me last week in the parkinglot of wal mart. I drove in and was waiting patiently for the car in front if me to get parked. There was a car behind me, the car in front of me put on his bu lights and started backing up toward my car. I thought he was going to hit me so I honked my horn. The car behind oblivious to what is going on so I couldn't back up. Well after this went on for a minute, 2 black guys a white girl and 2 other white dudes jumped out if this old Caprice and started jawing at me and my wife to get out of the way, not in such nice terms. So I'm sitting here my wife is scared, freaking out.
One of the white dudes starts reaching in his pants with his Atlanta Falcons jacket covering his hand and is yelling "what you going to do b"""". So I have said not a word at this point and I'm a little nervous and the guy behind me finally backs up only to have to stop for the car behind him. I quickly reach into the back seat and grab my trusty 870 tactical as this cat is approaching my car with his hand down in his junk.
Well I did all I thought I could so I hung my 870 out the window and piped one with a quick pump on the way out the opening. Well needless to say Mr "too fly for a white guy stopped dead in his tracks about 10 feet from the blazer and jerked his hand back out of his drawers. Proceeded to say " you going to shoot me?". Now his friends have all bailed on him at this point except for the girl. She is yelling something I don't know because I don't understand Ebonics.... I told my wife to keep an eye on her as I opened the door and stepped out with the barrel of my 870 pointing at Eminem. I got out to ask the cars behind me to back up but they were already rolling. So I did a quick scan for his buddies and they were all running like hell across the parking lot. I asked him to to "move along" and he yelled as he was semi running back toward his friends not to shoot. I don't know where Ms Daisy went but she was gone. I was scared and freaking out inside but I kept my cool got back into my car and drove off calling the police on the way out to let them know what had happened. They asked me to come to the station and file a report so i did. It turns out they had rounded up these guys ( no girl ) and arrestedthem for disorderly conduct based off of witness statements when they arrived at walmart. Apparently thier Caprice wouldn't start so they couldn't leave. They checked my permit and took down my info. They said no gun was found on the dudes but agreed I had reasonable cause to fear for me and my wife's life.
Good to know Kingsport's finest backed you up. Was this the wal mart on Ft Henry Dr?

Is this a recent change? My grandfather had a true 21 gun (7 men - 3 shots fired). That was about 1988.
Sorry for the loss of your Grandfather. Here is a C&P from Military.com concerning the 21 gun salute, notice the difference in "gun" and "rifle":
Gun salutes are also rendered to other military and civilian leaders of this and other nations. The number of guns is based on their protocol rank. These salutes are always in odd numbers. For example, the Vice President of the United States, Secretary Defense, and Secretaries of the Army, Air Force, and Navy all rate 19 guns. The highest-ranking generals in the services (Commadant of the Marine Corps, Chief of Naval Operations, and the Army and Air Force Chief of Staffs) all rate 17 guns. Other 4-star generals and admirals rate 17 guns. Three-stars rate 15, two-stars rate 13, and one-stars rate 11.
At military funerals, one often sees three volleys of shots fired in honor of the deceased veteran. This is often mistaken by the laymen as a 21-gun salute, although it is entirely different (in the military, a "gun" is a large-calibered weapon. The three volleys are fired from "rifles," not "guns." Therefore, the three volleys isn't any kind of "gun salute," at all).
Anyone who is entitled to a military funeral (generally anyone who dies on active duty, honorably discharged veterans, and military retirees) are to the three rifle volleys, subject to availability of honor guard teams. As I said, this is not a 21-gun salute, nor any other type of "gun salute." They are simply three rifle volleys fired. The firing team can consist of any number, but one usually sees a team of eight, with a noncommissioned officer in charge of the firing detail. Whether the team consists of three or eight, or ten, each member fires three times (three volleys).
The three volleys comes from an old battlefield custom. The two warring sides would cease hostilities to clear their dead from the battlefield, and the firing of three volleys meant that the dead had been properly cared for and the side was ready to resume the battle. The flag detail often slips three shell-casings into the folded flag before presenting the flag to the family. Each casing represents one volley.

After reading the other thread about burying with full honors, I did a search and came up with this website in case anyone had questions about it. Seems to be pretty informative.
Pulled over in Memphis with ar 15 and glock?

Ok guys, we touched on something earlier that I am pretty curious about. The OP stated to the officer that he had a handgun and had handed him his HCP with his license right? The thing that grabs ME is the fact they came in his vehicle without consent. The guy is LEGALLY carrying and is being stopped for speeding. Does admission of legally carrying a firearm give them probable cause to search your vehicle?
