I'm with the rest of them Ross. Very beautiful scenery and your truck is extremely good looking. The stance is perfect in my book, and who doesn't love a two tone Ford!

Great pics Ross! That is some beautiful scenery, and your truck looks great in each shot. The cabin shot would be great advertising material.

How about "through the rear view mirror".

It's a small speck, but it's a fellow FTE'r, Vegas123, 1949 F1 following me back from a local cruise-in yesterday morning (before I ran into the garage with the roof rack).

This has just been added to the must see drive through places once the truck is done. Had to take a break from the build. Was starting to try and take shortcuts. Not cool.

North of Chama is even more interesting, but was out of my range for this trip. US 84 goes up to Pagosa Springs CO. There is a spectacular drive from Pagosa to Durango, then north to Silverton, Ouray, and Telluride, or you can continue north from Pagosa to Wolf Creek pass. You want good brakes for any of these places!

Ross we were at Telluride one thanksgiving. When we left a state truck was following us up the mountain it stopped after we passed some large gates and as I looked in the rear view mirror he was closing the road !! You not only need good brakes, chains are good and a very strong gut Are required depending on when you go. Don't take that drive in winter!!

Thanks for sharing! Nice photos! This is what it's all about. A nice old truck, an open road, a sunny day and no traffic! Dreams are made of this!
