Hello All

I hope I'm not stepping on any toes and I'm afraid I might get tossed off the board, but here goes.
My name is Patrick Ertel and I am the editor of Vintage Truck magazine. I love all makes of light trucks, but I don't own a Ford. My interest in Fords comes from a Model AA flatbed I used a lot in the early 70s and a 63 F-250 that I drove a lot when I worked for a farmer when I was a kid. I didn't pay much attention then, but the F-250 had some size of V8 and a four speed and would practically climb trees. Loved the 250, but the AA was a challenge.
I like to visit boards like this to see what people are saying about their old trucks. Some boards let me invite people to send pictures and stories to share with others in Vintage Truck. If this isn't allowed here, please let me know and I'll just read. Thanks.
