Cold wet and rainy day, but at least I figured out right away it wasn't a wheel bearing. Got a new rotor, parking brake shoes and parking brake hardware and hope it goes simple. I bet the inside of the rotor is tore to crap!

Well, I was both wrong and lucky. It's nothing to do with the parking brake, it's the wheel bearing inside the left rear axle housing. It is beyond my skill set, so off to NAPA 1st to return stuff and get new bearings and seals, then off to my buddy's shop to get her fixed.

Lucky? Because I was towing a travel trailer for 500 miles with a grinding noise I thought was parking brake related. Very fortunate to have made it home and not had to have this fixed on the road.

Pulled an F250 we bought online into the lot. Batteries were dead when they arrived.

Sounds awesome. Nice deep tone accelerating and nice little rumble while cruising and at idle. No drone at all. It's a little loud but a nice kind of loud. I'm only into it about $170 with the muffler and installation.
