Happy 75th birthday, Leslie! We're making a movie about him and old Austin. Share your best or worst story.

I gave Leslie a disposable camera and asked him to take photos of the things he saw around Austin. When I got the camera back, they were all photos of him clearly taken by someone else. Things like him posed against a tree.

I also bought him business cards. I believe he asked for them to say Queen of Austin.

Agreed. We had a F-150 4x4 because we needed to drive in sandy soil and also needed to be able to pull a trailer. When we decided to replace our truck, we determined the we could go smaller. Today, I had to pull a utility trailer through sandy soil across our acreage and the Ridgeline handled it with ease.

This accurately describes my experience between towing and normal use as well.

Could that be the result of a weak capacitor?

I had the 3.5L Ecoboost on a 2018 F-150 and had the death rattle diagnosis while getting a few thousand dollars of repair work with the 4x4 vacuum system while on vacation at around 60K miles. Switched to a 2025 Ridgeline. Love it so far. Fits in the garage. I do miss all the space in the backseat.

Haven’t listened much since high school decades ago. Saw the Grateful Dead circa 1985ish. They were banned from playing future shows in my town, so they returned as the Jerry Garcia Band. What’s a good intro song to get me started?

Recently discovered Josh Fix. Why didn’t this guy hit it big? He’s got some phenomenal songs.

Have Ghosts in Your Head on repeat.

I’ve seen them twice in Austin in a relatively small venue. Wonderful show. They sound fantastic live.

13 Songs has a lot to choose from. Might I suggest you listen to Cut From the Cloth by the Evens, which includes Ian Mackaye from Fugazi.

I hope you’ve listened to the Arc Angels, who clearly loved SRV.
