"We Own Work" Finalist!

Ford has selected me and my Super Duties as a finalist for the We own Work Video shoot. Ford will send a film crew out to film Me and the truck (or trucks) working, then we fly out to Cali to meet and shoot with Mike Rowe! Many thanks to all those who voted for my 2011 F550 Rollback!

Congrats, every time I am in Chicago I always look for your trucks, and I have yet to see one but someday I'm sure I will. They are great looking.

They booted me out of the competition and sent me a "miffed off" email, after I submitted a photo of my work truck on the hoist at my Ford dealer.

They need to work on thier sense of humor, IMO.
