Well, I soon may be a non-ford driving enthusiast The cost of repairs to keep 'ol Rusty on the road can no longer be justified. The plan was to finally get my oil pan replaced, but then the rear spring hangers are about to fall apart along with the already broken leafs. and the most recent injury is the front mount for the radius arm has broken and missing the whole lower half.

Although I still continue to be an enthusiast, I will have to retire 'ol Rusty for now.

Got to work on the truck for 2 days in a row. It's amazing.

No big deal, Toyman don't have one either. Now there will be more then one. You will get another soon enough. You can only spend so much and get no where.

Camping started last night with 15 beers after setup. Now just waiting for some people to move so we can get a better spot on the water. Will be drinking again later. I also got a ice maker, it is awesome for camping. Makes 33 lbs a day and 12 cubes every 14 min.

2618 miles later the Super Duty slept happily in its garage last night. Not bad for a 3 day trip! And I know I have a LOT of time to make up in the corner.
