I think were all out putski'in around the yard, just to be outside.
It worked out good for me the other day, Cam was on the quad ripping around the snow in the back and as he stirred it up, I shoveled it away. Couldn't shovel back there during last snow fall, to heavy.

I hit reply before submitting pictures....
The black and white 64 was supposed to be a parts car but just maybe someday it`ll be more than that.

So I just went through my emails and got an offer from a dealership I stopped at when my power steering pump died, didn't get my truck fixed there but stopped there to get it checked out, that they want me to trade in my truck. I got offered "above market value" and an $1500 voucher. My girlfriend wants a new Ford Explorer, do you guys think I should consider trading my truck in for a new Explorer?? I don't need a diesel, I only have one because I wanted one. If I did trade in, I would definitely get another truck but it would most likely be a older truck for a beater. What do you guys say? Trade in my truck that I love very much and get a new Explorer and a beater truck or keep my truck and just wait till some more of my debt is paid off and then buy a used 2012-2014 Explorer with low mileage next winter/spring?

I say keep it, only because I like those trucks so much. Right now I have my eye on a black Lariat 2011. Not sure I want to go back into dept though.

Thanks Gerry. That black car is a parts car for my 64 white XL but it`s calling to me to get it back on the road. This 53 is a Mercury, not a Ford half ton.

Thanks Grant. It`s dried up nicely and with today`s wind there was dust blowing around.

No doubt it`s a major project!

If it`s a good deal that you might not see again for a while then it might pay to look it over closely but I know you`ll miss that diesel.
