Hey, I'm Brendon. I'm personally on my third Superduty. To be honest, not sure why I sold the first one.

My first Ford truck was my work truck, a 1990 F-450 7.3 stick.



Then I got an upgrade. 1997 F-450 PSD E4OD



Then I went through some cars and trucks, a GMC, a Silverado, stupid me. Then after I came to my senses, I bought my first Superduty. Stupid me again, sold it 3 years later.



Then after a short time without, I bought another just for a beater. It was ok when I got it, but quickly started to rot through the box.



I ended up trading in that for my current truck, as well as selling my E-350 work van.....



On this







Now I have a do all.

Thanks for having me, and I hope to make it to a GTG soon. I have to look at a job tomorrow morning, and I don't miss opportunities to do that in this economy.

Hi Brendon

Welcome to the CT Chapter.

You and Andy should compare trucks both under the hood and stacked on back.

Hi Tim, keep at it, I had over seven years of odd jobs between down-sizing out of commercial nuclear power and getting this combustion turbine power station job.

Hi Everyone, Kevin here. I am new to Connecticut and FTE. We moved to Fairfield from Maine for work. I recently purchased a rusted out 93 F-150 and daily driver is a 95 Explorer with about 320,000 miles on it. I have only owned Fords mostly pickups and SUV's.

Hey guys, I have been on the site for a while, and never thought about looking for a CT chapter. The names Josiah, and the truck("clyde") is an 86 f150 I6 w/ c6 4x4, my first truck. It's got a lot of work it needs, but it was a good deal, and I needed a car. Ford has always been my first option.
