Rich's beer fridge is empty, and all of the gravel in his driveway is now in one nice neat pile.

Morning Mike. That'll give him an excuse to play with his tractor more.

The best part was putting that picture in front of the camera once you let me know where it was. You should see all the empties everywhere now. I told the local kids that this was the place to party for the next week.

I'm sure the youngest son is enjoying the company, and Roscoe loves having people to play with...

I am off in a 2017 F-150 heading towards Charlotte, NC for the very and always exciting British Motor Trade Association annual get together. To add insult to injury, not only do I have to talk about British cars for a week, they are taking us to the National Association of Selective Caution Adjusted Racing's hall of fame. At least there will be cars in there old enough to have still been considered stock cars.

Why would any one want to talk about British cars? And I second the suggestion on the moonshine......

I drove the 17 F150 for 8 hours of the 12 hour trip. I reserved the last four for sitting in the back seat drinking beer. But let me tell ya - that truck with the new 3.5 EcoBoost and the 10 speed is a helluva truck. I am super impressed. Not Mighty Seven Three impressed, but man, nice truck Ford!

I'm with you Brandon. I've been searching, but I can't seem to find any first hand accounts of 3.5l Ecoboost swaps into a Super Duty. Or 2.0l, 2.3l Ecoboost swaps into Rangers. With the hp/tq advantage of the 3.5l, I thought we would see more of them.

I've been wanting to drive one of these. I'll be going to a 1/2 ton in a few years, and I'd like to see what the Eco boost is like.

Oh, and welcome to March. Only 18 days to Spring!
