A hearty thanks to all who participated!
Well, I was able to get w/ Truck tonite. 
I've never actually SEEN anyone poleaxed dumbstruck before, lol!
The visual of *speechless* is something to see.
I thank everyone who pitched in and especially Greg Nemish (excessive post count manipulator Mod Hawkrider) who coordinated everything.
Pics to come.

It's apparent that some of the forum isn't fully up to speed here.
On 5/20 I set up a Paypal donation account to get Trucker knee surgery. I emailed all the forum members the link to the donation (had to temporarily ban Trucker for this
). I used the email addresses that you have registered with the forum. If you were not included I apologize. Over the course of a month, after Paypal fees, we raised $1343.85. Jack (linearraynut) was kind enough to deliver the check to him personally this evening since he's local.
Pics are coming. Jack's sending them and I have to resize them first.

Honestly Im still speechless. Im not even sure what to think.
I appreciate this more than you can you can comprehend.
Everyone on this forum has been more than friendly to me, and thats rare these days.
My dad still cant understand how ive got friends that ive never officially "met"
For someone to go out of their way for an individual whome they have never met is a truly caring action.
You guys are the best, and there is no way around it.
A HUGE thank you to Greg for his outstanding Moderation and caring of his forum members.
Thank you Jack for finally tracking me down, I know its not easy. We will get those CCT's in soon.
And also a big thank you to everyone on this forum and reading this, especially everyone who contributed.
Its amazing to see how something like a motorcycle can bring people together.

Truck, it's not much to each of us... But put together it might make a difference to one of us... And that's really all there is to it... One of us...
Tell your dad that if he thinks about it it's not that strange really... We ride... And riders stick together...
And you don't leave a fellow rider stranded... Be it by the roadside or layed up with a bum knee...

@Linearray - Ed McMahon would have been proud of your check presentation skills.
Truck your really talented man and good talent doesn't need to be discouraged by a bum knee. You remind me of a friend who does all the behind the scene fabrication work for the show Extreme 4x4. Just a good guy with great talent. You never know where you'll end up when you work hard and keep creating. I've really enjoyed your build thread and when your back up to speed I'll be placing orders for CCT's, braces, or whatever cool stuff you've come up with.
Keep truckin...

Hey Truck, that's a wicked looking knee brace you got. Looks like it may even have some carbon fiber in it. Just wanted to say, good luck to a quick recovery & no one with the talent you have should think of theirselfs as "just a stupid kid" Best of luck to you!

If my original email addy hadnt changed, I would have gotten the email like the rest.
But, I will be sure to buy some of your stuff when the time comes.
Best wishes on the recovery, and dont let anything get you down bro.
