since I'm lazy and on the computer, here's a pic that gives me wood... My buddy and I have twin 2003 SVT Cobra 10th anniversary models. Only differences are exhaust, rims, and he has installed the styling bar...

That sucks, dealer incompetency causing you to take matters into your own hands... With regard to the bolded statement...you don't want kids? hahaha

Thanks. I'm just a kid too, but I'm married and have two kids. Wouldn't trade them for anything. Well, one of them I might be tempted...

HOLY SNAPPER, THAT"S SWEET SHERWIN

I tell people all the time guys, I'm 21 with 21 years experience. We work hard and play harder!! Nice freagen Stangs too.....Wow.

Thanks Curtis. I've worked hard to accumulate the junk I have. Having it paid for is a bonus...with our house and the new truck being the exceptions... Mustang, sled, wife's car, and our 8 year marriage is all paid for

I googled it, and they said it might be weather related I remember many moon's ago putting a habatchi under my 69 F100 parked on the front street to get it started. Back then extention cords were only 12 ft long

Thanks Ger. Its the Adobe(tan) lower. I am definitely enjoying the country and life. Life is too short to not enjoy it. I've been blessed really (not bragging here, trust me) to have a wonderful wife, wonderful kids, couple of sweet pooches and most of all, we all have good health. The rest of the material things are just a bonus

My Grampa used to tell stories of working with heavy equipment in Labrador in the late 40's-50's. They would have to lite a fire under the big diesels all night to get them to start. A different way of life than now that's for sure.

Hi guys, we had a bit of winter storm with fresh snow and blowing wind yesterday but my son and family made it back safely from their trip to Alberta.

It`s a real pain Gerry, I`ll take it in tomorrow and find out what`s up.

I've never had it on my Ranger either with alum rims but buddies with the F150 have.
They are chrome covered aluminum rims, I`ve heard that the chrome will flake off causing problems. What concerns me it that it`s both left tires so it could be I did run over something.
Nice truck Sherm, white Ford trucks always make me weak at the knees. I love your yard too.

LMAO at the snowman pic......hehehehe

Sherwin, we wouldn't be were we are today without them. 13 married and about to roll over 19 years together. You couldn't have said it better in the above post.

Looking forward to seeing the Edge Grant!! Good luck at the game.

Morris....ya, i've heard of that as well but I think your right, being both left sides is too much of a coincedence.
