In the beginning there was a stock class a black/maroon Ford F150 ran and a grey Chebby and your pit neighbor Jeep ran. Somethinge else ran but I forget what is was. The Ford didn't make it very far up the hill it looked to be a mid 2000's p/up. It was the first class to try the hill.

He didn't break down though did he? I just though he had really worn OEM tires that had no bite.

Is this the classic car show you are referring to up at bradley? I just wanted to double check.

There is also an antique military vehicle show at the Chester fairgrounds this weekend I believe.

No Josiah this is a big rig show in North Haven right down the street from Home Depot.
They are going to have rigs from all over the northeast.
The rigs are all airbrushed and polished, you can see your reflection in the aluminum and chrome bodies.

i stopped at a few dealers today, they are all high as a kite with their prices on 7.3's. almost double what the average pricing is for comparable trucks that i have been looking at from used dealers. greg, if you have a number or email from the dealer you got yours from send it my way. i'm also going to drop an email to the place we just got my brothers from.
