My wife and I went to Walgreen's for flu shots, then to the grocery store to prepare for the up-to 1/2" of snow major storm that's about to hit this week! (In seriousness, the smallest ice storms here in Georgia are crippling compared to the winter weather we experienced in the mid-Atlantic.)
Cold, but more important the 2.7 EB hauled those groceries! :-)

A couple of days late, but my latest modification was to shorten the hood, front bumper and relocate the engine by about 18". It is amazing how a telephone pole can do that when you hit it. I left in an ambulance, and my baby left on a hook. Going to the tow yard to clean it out after the Dr. releases me. Will post pics. I really think she saved my life. Need to find a replacement. Going crew cab short bed so it will fit the garage. Anyone know of a 2016 or 2017 leftover Race red, 302 A, chrome package near Indy?
THANKS TO EVERYONE FOR THEIR CONCERN. HERE ARE PICTURES OF MY "MODIFICATIONS" FROM 50MPH INTO A BILLBOARD

I found my previously-pwnt '16 XLT 5.0 crew after looking through 110 trucks online at Ford Certified Pre Owned. Good luck to you.
Today's a work holiday, so I gave my truck a needed bath. Love this thing!

I didn't take any pics but fixed my oops for the other day. 2 new wheel studs and I switched the front wheels to cheap Autozone one piece lug nuts. I ordered all new lug nuts but I need the truck for work tomorrow.

Thanks, guys. I wouldn't advise these mods. I apparently passed out from a heart problem and went 150 feet off the road into a billboard at about 50. The Sync was calling 911 when I came too.
