Hey guys! Happy Thursday! Too much GM talk on here today!

Seems it's the popular thing to do right now to get rid of a Ford for a different vehicle... My buddy with a 1991 F250 7.3 just sold his to get a ..... Jetta. FACEPALM!

Yeah, I already know pretty much what my next truck will be too! 1994 - 1996 F150 with same engine and tranny. Probably buy it from out west, so I can have a mostly rust free truck for a few years! This truck is probably a year or two out yet though.
