Greetings

I recently bought my first fullsize pickup, a 1996 F150. I was planning to buy something smaller and more fuel efficient, like a Ranger, S10, or Transit Connect, until I saw an ad with a 4.9L. It's much heavier than the Rangers I had, but it loses weight when rusty bits fall off. It needs patching on the fenders.

LOL once it loses about 1,000 pounds of rust it will weigh about the same as a Ranger!

Welcome aboard!
