new to ford performance

hi everyone, i have only owned one ford in my life.thats the 97 f150, ext cab 4x4. i love it! iused to believe GM was the only vehicle to drive but, being an auto tech for 20 plus years i have come to learn that all manufacturers have issues with products. you just have to deceide which issues you as a consumer can deal with. besides when the 97 body style came ouy i couldn't believe how much i liked it. so here i am five years later, getting ready to give my ever so deserving ford truck a make over. thanks to you i have a place to do a little R&D with out the time and money. thank you very much! bill b
