@Powerstroke72 I know I'm new here and I haven't read all 400+ pages of this thread but I was thinking about your transmission issues last night and what you describe is certainly a safety issue. I was wondering if a submission to the NHTSA might not get Ford's attention to your problem? And forgive me if this has already been discussed at length elsewhere.

Thanks Gigger. A good weekend - had two grandkids and one daughter over for Easter dinner. Elder daughter was in DC and I just got a call that she is now sworn in to practice before the Supreme Court - I'm just a bit proud!

This week will be a fairly quiet one then next week is crazy busy with non-profit board meetings. Retirement is nice but I swear I'm busier now than I was when I was working full time. I'm on 5 non-profit boards and I'm state chairman of our Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve (ESGR) committee. I spend a lot of time working with our returning veterans which is rewarding but time consuming.

But I bring it all on myself so I have no right to complain.

I hope your weekend and Easter were as rewarding.

Thanks savage! She really likes it and she did a lot better than I thought. Probably put 6 hours on it this weekend. It is going to get a lot of use.
