Howdy Curtis. I had to blow the dust out of the coffee mug I have for you at work. Short on available driver's, so my bro has to go to Vancouver tomorrow morning. Next week will be hell. I'm taking the week of the long weekend off. Plans are to get the 56 in the garage. Have a great weekend guy's.

The wife took her '14 Escape in for service at the local Ford Dealer this morning. I picked her up in the '51 F-1. The service writers were coming out to get info from customers vehicles. Not one stopped or asked about the truck. Several customers talked to me while I waited. I guess it's just an old truck to some people.

I had the same experience at the Ford dealer in Dryden, no one even took a second look but at the GM dealership the sales department and mechanics all come out to look it over...kind of makes you laugh

Keep those snow flakes there John, I`ve had my fill of winter.
Likely the fathers of the service writers would be more interested than those young guys Tienmac.
How do you like your Escape? My wife has a 2013 and so far we really like it.

We like the Escape. The fuel economy is ok, but the range on a tank of fuel is short. It could use a larger fuel tank. I'm used to my '10 F-150 with a 1,000 km range to a tank of fuel on the highway.

I drove out to Lumsden this morning to attend my first car show and shine. Met some nice people and had fun talking to people interested in the truck. The show was put on by the local Boy Scouts and Girl Guides. It was nice to give them some support. I was asked to bring the truck next Saturday to a show in Grenfell Sk. If the weather is nice I may drive the truck out. Anybody here attend this show before?
