Sorry I'm not posting much lately. I can't seem to get my health back. I have carpel tunnel in my left hand plus more nerve damage too. I can barely bend my fingers. Makes life tough. Hope you guys are doing well.

Sorry to hear about the Carpel tunnel. It can make things ruff with the inability to use your hands. Had surgery yet?

Sorry I have been MIA. Just had my second back surgery yesterday. This time they did a spinal fusion. I hope to post more again. I have several projects coming up once I heal up.

I'm newbie to the site. Put in request to join this chapter. Did not hear back from anybody. It's ok.
I'm about 2 weeks in to my 1st Super Duty. Traded in my 11 Mustang GT 5.O., I'm 61 and had my fun with it.
Wifey drives a 15 Edge Sport w/ Twin Turbo's, loaded, very nice ride.
Loving the F250 so far.

Sorry it took so long. I have been slacking. How do you like your super Duty? I am on my 4th one. Had someone hit me and was out it for a month. I really missed it.

All good so far. Can't wait for cooler weather, hook up the RV and hit a few parks.
I had to look up Crowville, that's a new one...My Dad from Oak Ridge. Spent some time up there years ago with grandparents.
Hope you are doing better.

It doesn’t look bad here. But it busted the front end housing, bent all steering and busted the power steering box.

I splice fiber optic cable. We were making a right hand turn. Some one not paying attention tried to swerve around us. The front end took all of the impact. This was around 9:45 at night. I have multiple strobe lights on my truck and trailer. He said he didn’t see us.

Good Taco Tuesday evening Robert and LA. "Didn't see the lights!" I bet. Messed up on something or on his phone. Hope he got a ticket.

Good morning Robert and all of Louisiana, have a great Saturday morning!
I hope they learned to pay more attention to the road.

Good morning. I’m feeling better. Going Thursday to get the staples out. Looks like I may have to take my trailer and retrieve my F450 bucket truck. Driver says it’s running horrible.
