New from NL
Hey all, long time creeper and Ford truck owner here from NL. Past Ford trucks include in order:
1985 F150, 5.0 EFI, C6, 4x2 reg cab long box
1987 F150 Custom, 5.0 EFI, 4 spd std 4x4 reg cab long box
2009 Ranger Sport, 4.0 EFI, auto, 4x4 super cab
2010 F150 XLT, 4.6 3v, 4x4 reg cab long box
1991 F150 Custom, 5.0 EFI, E4OD, push button 4x4, reg cab long box (still own)
1996 F150 XL, 5.0 EFI, 4R70W, 4x4, axle code 19, reg cab long box (daily driver)
I know, you're probably asking yourself why I had 2 new ones then went back to old ones again. Answer is I was sick of the monthly payments on the new ones. The '96 does exactly the same job as the 2010 did, only more cheaply.
I mainly use my trucks as winter beaters and when as truck is needed such as towing a camper or hauling my quad around. Other than that, I use my 1988 Lincoln Town Car from May to November every year for DD duty.
Cheers, congrats on a good site!

Welcome from SoCal. I'm with you. After payments every month I decided I could drive trucks 15 to 45 years old and have only minor repairs (I fixed myself) and put the money else where.
