Hello, I was directed to here to share a little about myself. I'm self proclaimed smart a$$ who is currently looking for my next paycheck in life. I'm an ASE certified mechanic with a passion for guns, grilling, vehicles, Hot Wheels, and my family and friends. I'm 37 and have owned 38 vehicles since I was 13 and most have been fords. I'm currently looking for a support group for my addiction as my wife calls it, so she will stop yelling at me for talking about my vehicles so often. As I get a feel for the group you may learn more if I dont scare to many people with my excessive rambling.

I joined the page when I bought my 73 f250 and had it a month before it was stolen and just didn't make time to stop in. I built an 89 Ranger after I recovered from my loss around April of 2011 and spent time on a ranger based page. That truck I sold to buy my house and recently bought my 78 in March of 2015 I have now and I went to register on the site and it said I already had an account so I recovered my password and started reading and posting.
