Resurrection time!
A fellow SD/PS owner in Spokane had a bumper for sale on Craigs List and he even took the time to help me install it. I don't know if it's just FTE, it's starting to look like Ford Superduty is the catalyst for a family. 2000ca250 sent a PM that he had a bumper, but I had already installed the other used one. Crop harvester, a supporting and supportive member, sent me a private message that he had a hitch he no longer needed. I arranged to pick it up, unfortunately my newfound friend had a bent hitch frame and he was unaware of it - but I am really greatful for the effort. After what I saw on my hitch and the bend in his, this got me to thinking about the durability of the stock hitch frame.
Underwhelmed, I go big.
All I had to do was install the new B/U camera and this proved to be a long, dragging project. I was working many hours, I had higher priority projects on Stinky to get done - so the camera sat in a box for quite a while. I went on a Stinky rampage this weekend and addressed everything I had parts/equipment for. Ignore the backup sensor holes on my bumper, nothing going on there - I have a camera. The bumper was cheap, and it was straight/shiny... so I got over it. Besides... my money sets Stinky up up to walk, not talk.

My wife knows how to look these things up, but the guy who assaulted Stinky has 19 active criminal court cases against him right now. Bad juju. I'm grateful that through the support of the citizens of Tulalip, WA and the Superduty brotherhood... we were not "victims" of this guy. Instead, I have an interesting experience and some upgrades to the truck.
