March All Topic - All Welcome!!



Heading out to Prescott AZ in a little while for the 2011 Super Duty press launch, where I'll have the opportunity to drive the new 6.7 diesel and 6.2 gas offerings and compare them to the competition in towing, fuel economy and off-road performance. Pictures and an article will appear here on FTE on the 8th.

Morning Bill. Looking forward to Steve's observations on that new truck, and the new diesel. I hope Ford got it right!

I also, am subscribing to the blather that's FTE SoCal chapter.
Steve, looking forward to your report.
BTW, I still can't get over the size of that breakfast yesterday. I'm still full.

Yeah, no kidding. I still need to go get the bed for it I bought. My car trailer is currently buried in snow, so need to get it dug out.

We went to The Heritage Family Pantry
On Carson Street in Lakewood.

Biggest breakfast plate I've ever seen. I hate leaving food on my plate, but yesterday I left a bunch.
It's going to be one of those, whenever I'm in town I'll try to plan a meal there, places. It was damn good.
