u know i like the new design ford has. The 99 i have is so nice and performs so well i ponder why buy a new one. for tax purposes it befits to buy a new one as a contractor. even though i blew a rod at 22k and had a rebuillt engine tossed in and my sensors replaced, ive had no problems. they even tighten up my shift points and man can u tell the difference. i think rebuilts rock. i have no real scratches on my white "lizswede". when she is clean she looks new. i got an ARE tonnaue cover on it so it matches the hood. got it at long lake truxstore. it had to go back three times and the every time it came back it came back worse. the last time it came back it was scratched on both sides the the store blew it off. dont got there. lol . any way. besides a door crack that is making my door rust and the thermostat **** that keeps on breaking, i see no need to get a new truck. aside from my boys getting bigger, sometime soon i will. i feel like keeping it. paid for and a runner. keep it for my 11 son who wants to tile with me. be his work truck. but how many trucks can one have? 71 sport custom and my 99 then a new one? lol need to get a bigger gararge.
