Good evening, everyone.

I first joined FTE many years ago, and "life" happens.

My beloved '00 Ranger Sport 4x4 was totaled (my youngest son converted it to a submarine - lonnnnnnnng story........ don't ask!)
I've been driving a competitor's vehicle since '14, and while it was a very good truck, I got T-Boned a couple of weeks ago, it was declared a total loss.
I walked away from the accident, but, MAY have long-lasting/permanent damage to my aging left shoulder. (Feeling pain is a good indicator to letting you know that you're still alive!)
Maryland State Trooper said that IF I had entered the intersection about 1/2 second sooner, I'd be dead. (My truck was hit at over 65+ mph!)


I'm now back in a Ford. 2022 F350 SD Crew Cab Lariat. 6.7L Powerstroke.

I hope to learn more about this truck, and also talk with some old friends, from years ago.

Thanks, for letting me come back in, and "sit a spell".

Keith

Here's a photo of my new truck.

Hi Keith, welcome back and congratulations on sweet new ride. Sorry to hear about being t-boned, this hefty F350 will offer pretty good protection in an accident.
