I'm new here.

Hi all, I just wanted to introduce myself. My name is Chris and I just signed up to this forum. I am 32 fomr Shenandoah, PA. I am a married father of 4. The first vehicle I ever owned was a 1972 F100 Sport Custom with a 360. I bought and sold that before I was even old enough to drive. I still kick myself in the a$$ for getting rid of that truck. I have not owned a Ford since then, which was 1997, until recently when I bout a new to me 2000 Ford Expedition Eddie Bauer. I am learning to love it!! I am not crazy about the exterior styling, but driving it is a charm, except for filling up. The 5.4 is a little thirsty. So am I!
I joined this group to shre stories, learn about common issues with these trucks and hopefully meet some new people.

Shoot, you can put a whole truck up 6" but you can't put up one simple picture?
