New old guy from Springfield, MO

Good day everyone.
Hi, my name is Hugh and i'm a Ford truck owner.

I own a 1988 Ford F-150, 5.0, A/C, Automatic.
The neat thing is, i bought this brand new off the lot back in June of 1988 and have kept it up and running ever since. I bought the truck with the intention of driving it till it fell apart....it's getting close, but she ain't dead yet.

I'm retired Navy (Submarines) and have been living and working in Springfield for 13 years.
I love doing my own work on my truck.....as long as i can figure it out.

Glad to be a part of this forum!
