'Och aye the noo!' from Bonny Scotland.
Hi all!
I've coveted F Series trucks for some time and always promised myself one.
Off the back of a failed attempt to upgrade my Wife's daily, this kind'a happened...
...So she's a little tatty and needs a fair bit of cosmetic work done but I'm assured buy my mechanic that other than a couple of bushes needing replaced, she's quite sound underneath. She's a 7.3 IDI Turbo 2WD.
Planning on acquiring a cap for the bed and have her painted next year but for now I'm happy trundling around seeing people with their jaws on the floor.
You might've gathered these are quite rare in Scotland!

Career Change & Looking for knowledge
Long story short I was doing carpentry for 6 years, Ford F250s/350s work trucks
I have switched careers at 28. One month, I'm 2 weeks on the floor after 2 weeks of training on general selling I'm starting at the bottom of a FORD/TOYOTA Dealership in sales
Being new to this and having a ton of product to learn I want to turn to you guys, I'm doing well in sales (RAV4s) as my its my first month BUT
I met a gentleman on the lot looking for a F-250 crew cab, 4x4, silver etc.
Told my Sales manager and he took the customer and gave it to another salesman and said " these truck guys will rip you apart" But im a gear head my first dirt track car was a 89 Mustang Hatchback I know trucks/cars/suvs but it wasn't good enough for my manager so
I'm working hard to find everything I need to know to not have a sale taken away and given to another person that sits in an office all day not out on the lot just sitting on his ***. I'm a little pissed off so time to change the game

Vin here in OC
Hi I'm Vin and I'm in Irvine, CA. I recently bought a 1993 F350 Diesel in good condition and want to plug into resources for keeping her sharp.
I also introduced myself in So Cal chapter (as well as Virginia chapter, sorry that was a mistake...)
Thanks for any help and advice...

Hello All,
First post here. I am a new 2008 F250 SD owner as of today. Actually, I am not even in possession of the truck yet. I won an auction for it today. I still have to go pick it up (maybe early next week). This is my first Ford vehicle, although my wife owns a 2008 Excursion XLT RSC. I love the power of her 5.4 which is the reason I chose to pursue this truck for my hauling/towing needs.
Anyhow, I just wanted to say hello before I move on to asking questions.
Matt

Hey everybody,
My names Shane I'm new to posting here. I'm from LA but go to school in San Jose. I've been lurking on here the past couple of months, while I've been up at school, trying to get ideas and checking out some of your guys builds. I picked up a 1974 F250 Ranger, from my dad's buddy who was the first owner, a few month back and it has 179089 miles on it. It's pretty much all original with paint, engine, and transmission. The only things I've changed so far are the wheels and a new radiator.
