You're right. Gotta respect a person who only talks when they got something important to say, wish I was like that...
Actually, I am just trying to stir the pot a little to get a little enthusiasm going in this chapter... some playful banter or whatever. End note, I am there to help too.

Hello all. Thanks for letting me in the Washington chapter. My dad raised me on Fords. My first car was a 36 ford 4 door sedan, from there it was all Ford trucks. I did have a rebelious stage in high school and bought a C---y, but dad had a talk with me and that never happened again. I currently have an 2000 Expedition and 79 F350 trailer special with 61,000 original miles.

Boomer, just a little FYI from experience regarding mileage.
My shop truck is an '02 F250 with the V10 and automatic, and it's lived its whole life thus far lugging an equipment trailer. Pulling weight anywhere between 6,600# and 11,200# it gets between 7.5-9 mpg. I'm not sure whether or not you tow, but I thought I might pass the info along.

That said, I wish my shop truck was a 7.3 4x4 6 speed. This 3/4 ton, 2 wheel drive automatic truck just does not cut the mustard when trying to lug a trailer around to a construction site; or even a flat, open field.... especially in the winter. You can tell the CREW didn't have any say in what the new shop truck should've been when we bought this one. Oh well, gotta make it work 'til it poops out!
