First Ford

04 F-150 FX4 Screw 5.4 3v
black with dark shadow grey two-tone
3.55 ls
moon roof
leather captains chairs

Love this truck, I've owned Dodges, Chevys, and Toyotas and so far so good with this truck and it is superior to the others. Time will tell.

This is a great forum and I continue to get a great deal of info from it.

Glad you like the truck they're awesome. How did you like the C-130? Built them for about 18 yrs in Marietta, been on the F-22 program the last 2 yrs. Thanks for serving your country.--Jack

Herc is one hell of an airplane, takes a lickin' and keeps on tickn'
Our E models are 1963 vintange with well over 20 k hours on the airframe and are older than most of the pilots. We are now transitioning into the EC-130J. Started my career in another Lockheed great the C-121 Super Constellation, loved that airplane. Lockheed like Ford makes em' right.
