Quiet around here!
Bill,
Patrick is my name. New to the boards here.
I am a systems administrator for a local distributor in Denver.
I bleed blue and always have since before I started driving. 3/4 ton fords are my favorite although I have dabbled in a few mercury's here and there.
Great Grandfather was mercury man.
Grandfather was a ford man. Pickups especially.
Father-- well lets just say he can't make up his mind as he traded in his lexus for a cadillac. Mom still drives here 94 tempo though.
My first vehicle was a 73 f-250 camper special that just wouldn't die.
I took that thing anywhere and it always did what I asked sold it just after I graduated.
I bought my grandmothers 64 monterey when I graduated and restored that betty. Had it a couple of years then bought another 73 f-250.
4 years later my grandfather sold his 69 f-250 to me so that was the third I still have it and am selling it currently.
3 years ago I took the plunge and bought my dream. I always wanted a high-boy but those guys were getting 5000-8000 dollars for those things and they were always worn out in some way. So instead I bought a new Super duty and of course I had stars in my eyes so I went for the most expensive they had. I wanted a high boy so I lifted it 4 inches and put 35's on it and a winch for helping out those fellow z-71 drivers. Sweet ride.
Still a ford truck though. It does everything I ask.
I may never sell this one. If I get tired of it I'll buy another one.
Cheers.
Skinny dude always driving a 3/4 ton ford pickup.
