I'd start by filling the tank on my 64 F100 and giving the original 292 v8 a fresh tune-up. Then I would hit the highways and let the duals sing.
With any balance remaining, I'm sure my wife would have me set up for a few trips to the old landfill...but even those drives are sweet when your in a 39 year old Ford!

On the way home I could pick up the latest copy of "My Ford Magazine" to dream up a few more things to do to my truck.

Well, I sure would love to say that I would drive my '79 F-250 "Bumble Bee" to Pigeon Forge, or to a swap meet, or some other exotic place to show her off. Unfortunately, I'm sad to say she's not up to it--yet. No, she's bone tired; wearied from years of loyal service to some loving and grateful (no doubt about it) prior owner.

So she can't make it right now. Instead, if I won I'd take the $100 gas card and fill up her eager sibling, my Mazda B4000 (Ford of course). Then, with toolboxes in hand I'd go pay a visit to my sick Bumble Bee. That gas money would provide me many trips to see my friend, who lives just 30 miles away. I could even bring her a few presents. Gradually, I just know with some TLC I'd nurse her back on her feet again.

I see it clearly, that big, beautiful yellow and black F-250, the strong Bumble Bee, proud parent to my Mazda!

 

Hey I have been gone from home for almost 12 years now. All my friends drop what they are doing when We go home just to sit around and BS we all have wifes and kids now and they all love eachother also. So if you gave me 100 dollars worth of gas where do you think I would go ( Sweet Home Alabama )I would go Home for a visit just to sit with friends and BS.

 

Well, since that'd get the Ranger about 1500 miles, just about anywhere I wanted to.

 

Let's see- a highly modified 300-6 that maxes out at 12mpg, pushing around a 5300 pound F-250 4x4. Realistically, I will drive to work and back for two weeks. Dreaming, I would drive to Maine, watch the sunset from Vining Hill with my girlfriend, and hopefully have another $100 to get back home on. Can I get two cards?

 

I would probably go home to see my family. I'm in the military so they live a ways away.

 

If I won I think I would let my daughter use it to move to Arizona.

I'd drive in to NY to catch a Friday evening yankees came with the kids then head up to Mass for some camping and fishing. Does stadium parking mind a boat in tow?

 

In my F250, I'd take the kids to the drive-in movie to watch Monsters Inc (tail-gate style), take the wife out for a nite on the town, haul the garbage to the dump, pull the boat for a day of fishing, and take the family to watch the sunset over the puget sound... just before we all fall asleep in our new slide-in camper. After all this, I should still have enough fuel to go to work Monday morning...

 

We'd load up our Civil War cannon (replica, about 600 lbs)and haul it to all 7 home football games for Drake U. in Des Moines and still have enough miles left to go to N.E. Iowa and watch the leaves change colors this fall. ( 1 cannon shot to start & end game , and one with each Drake score) Lisa loves to out 'tailgate' everyone else and fries a turkey at one home game each year.

 

I would drive to Washington D.C. on the Fourth of July. Flying my American Flag that BTW was with me in Afghanistan and flew on the pole at Kandahar for Memorial Day '02 and visit the WALL and the TOMB OF THE UNKNOWN SOLDIER.

Remembering those that gave all..............NSDQ!!

Check that day it was Veteran's Day Nov '02 not Memorial Day.

 

Drive my '67 to its place of birth, San Jose assembly plant, photograph it there, then take a pleasure cruise up Pacific Coast Highway #1 to about ,say, Cape San Martin. Photograph the Ford at all scenic points in between. Then turn around and git back to work. My truck earns a living as a well maintained work impliment, and serves it's master well.

 

I would load up my 4 darling daughters and my wife and go camping in the Trinity Forrest.

 

I cant drive yet, but I would take my parents all around the country (as in the rural parts of texas) as far as the gas would take us and show them all the great places in the country to live so we can get out of this dang city.
