LOL. Fence post!

I was sliding in the mud so I gave gas, and then it caught traction.

Well this morning I dreamed that it was a dream, and then I woke up and realized it wasn't and said "F***!". Might as well laugh. It sure does beat being stressed out over it.

Cool! You gotta get posting, you need 25 for your sig and to use the pm feature. Feel free to jump into any of the threads. One of the best things in this forum is that no body will flame any one for posting or asking. A bunch of us go here to shoot the chit about non truck stuff. https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/808351-part-v.html
Somedays it's really busy and other days not. But always good for a laugh or two.

Thank you for that information, I'll get right on it. In return, I'd like to offer you some of my photoshop skills. Just let me know.

What happened to the Badger State boys down in Louisville? Was there a rule change that made them not competitive? By that I mean not taking the top of every single Super Farm show
What color is the tailgate, because my truck is prarie tan. I only need the handle due to me accidently hitting my garage door(DOH!!!!) while backing out of the garage to get to school.

I honestly don't know whose tractor that is, I just found it on the internet. I don't know about any rule changes. I know of a few tractors that could probbably do well down there.

My truck is black.

It turns out the Super's only finished in the middle of the class down there. It was kind of disappointing. I guess you can't have a Badger State guy take it every year

Ok, only the tailgate handle was damaged when I hit the garage door, my dad told me that I have to get the tail gate handle fixed, and he would take cae of the garage door.

Yeah there's always this year for a badger boy to win it. When do they usually get the tractor pulling season started up here?

It usually starts in Late May or June. That Mackville pull is a HUGE pull. I have never been there, but it has to be good. For one thing it is right across the road from Bean Snappers

That mackville pull looks pretty awesome. And maybe since my birthday isn't to far away from when the Mackville pulls is going to be held, my dad might let me and my friends drive down there and go see it.

That's just down the road from you so you could save on shipping.
Welcome to FTE!

Yep, I was going to link to one of Hendry's auctions or their site if no one did.
I've bought quite a few things from them, great to deal with.

If that link doesn't work go to the classifieds , then arrow down to the parts section. in the for sale section its on the bottom of page 3. I believe an 04 tailgate should work. Check it out
