I already did the intro thread a while back when I joined. haven't really had the chance to sit down at the computer at home to put up some pics and show my ride(s) like everyone else. figured I would post up a few pics of the trucks. hopefully start a good conversation thread. Two of the pics are of my new 2012 model one while at work and another the day that I picked her up in the lot. a couple are up my camp where I try to spend as much time as possible. The 04 model F150 was one of my favorite trucks. always had it up my families farm playin around. And in the one pic is my 5.0 mustang as well as my old F150. sad to say all but the new one is all I have left. I just recently parted with the F350 because i had a great offer on it and I felt I didn't need to waste money on a diesel that my new Ecoboost could replace with what i haul now.

thanks man. I grew up in a Ford Only family. I wish i had pictures of my old 79 Bronco or my 1990 Thunderbird too. The 2004 in the pictures above was my first new truck. loved that ride, unfortunitly I put 95,000 miles on it in 2.5 years not to mention took it off road fairly often so she got worked a little too hard at times.

I did too and ford trucks have treated me very well! 95,000 miles in 2.5 years? Wow! That's crazy! You must never shut it off lol

Lol nope it seemed that the key was rarely in the off position. I was a young kid with a nice new shinny truck. Still in the Laborers Union and I traveled alot for work and play at the time.
