Chuck, You'll have to forgive us, BTW Welcome to FTE
We get folks registering to use this site only to stir up hate and discontent, with pashionate truck owners. This is the #1 Ford truck site on the WWW, and only deals with Ford trucks. Other than directing you to another site, I don't know how we could help you.
