New Old Guy!

I thought I'd introduce myself here. I've been over in the New England chapter forum for a few days, learning my way around this Board. This is a great place!!!
I found you guys while searching for an F150 to call my own. I got soem great advice, and chose a 1973 F150 I6 4X4!!! Some guys gave me good advice and recommendations on the I6. It was a bit wierd- I was about to pay $1K more for a 95 w/ a 5.0, when the next door neighbor to that guy put the 93 on his lawn!!! It was a tough decision- until several guys here took the time to respond to a newbies questions!!! That act may not seem like much, but it made my decision on the truck to buy- and the site to call 'home' for my truck-side. I also frequent http://www.mustanggt.org/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi for my 85 GT, LNor! If you've got a Fox-Stang, it's the best place !

Anyway, if I can pry my new p/u away from my wife, I'll have plenty of questions for you all. Thanks for the warm welcome!

Ahh, nothing like a classic, eh. You'll learn to love that old 300 fast, even if it isn't (fast.) Got any plans for it yet? (turbo, he says under his breath, turbo)

Turbo???? I gotta get this whole 4X4 thing down, first!!! LOL!

Seriously, I have to think of fuel economy first and foremost w/ this vehicle. My 85 GT and my 90 Police Interceptor are my 'flying machines'!!!! (He said, panting for breath! )
