Giving it a rest

So, it seems my time to take a break from the ford forum has come. I've been here a few years, and while I have helped a little here and there I have mostly sat back and learned. Having driven my 92 f150 2wd through 4 years of Iowa winters I have decided it's time fir a new vehicle, as such I will be picking up a 2001 dodge ram 2500 with a magnum 360 with only 86k miles on it in the near future. With college coming this summer and having graduated early and working full time I simply do not have the time to fix my rust and convert to 4wd. As such I have decided to store away my ford with plans to fix it up right in the future, when money and time allow. Seeing as it went through my great grandpa , my grandpa and then to me all in 90k miles I don't think I could ever sell it.

Just wanted to let everyone know I appreciate all I have learned, there truly are some obs wizards on here and I enjoyed learning from them. Maybe in a few years there will be some magical rust fixing potion lol.

No reason to leave the forum. I've been here 9 years, and the ranger in my signature was scrapped a long time ago
