It was a GOOD day!
Went to a car show today and won "Best Ford Truck".
Had fun with a couple of pretty young ladies.
The first one is Miss Texas, who will represent Texas in the Miss America contest in January.
The second one is the SPJST State Queen.
Not a bad day for an old man.

Nice!

Very beautiful truck, I really like the slighty darker fenders, it steps it up a notch.

Congratulations, on all counts
From the looks of your truck, I'd say it was well deserved. Very nice!

As I seem to recall, didn't you win a similar award at this event last year - and didn't you have all that nice attention as well?

Hmmmmm, maybe we are going to have to start watching out for you!
