Whitey: Your PM bucket is full. Tracking # is 9500 1265 1531 2091 5282 74

GRF150: Ford vehicles? I've had.... Nine: An '88 Ford Escort, a 2003 V8 Lincoln LS, an 88 Ranger, a 2000 Ranger (sold a month later - too underpowered), two F150's, two Mustangs, and an 01 Escape. The only one that I'd say sucked was the Escape, and that's only because the front frame member literally rusted away and broke in half. Ford fixed it under recall, though. Otherwise, even it was a pretty good vehicle.

Thank you!! I just cleaned out my box... send me your info so I can get you paid. Can't wait to get them on there!

GRF150, I've owned the following Ford/Lincoln/Mercury's, in order:

85 Mustang GT
89 Mustang GT*
86 Mustang GT
91 Explorer
96 Cougar
91 Explorer (yes, I've owned two)
98 Mountaineer
96 Ranger
06 Escape*
97 F150*
98 Expedition
11 Escape*
94 Town Car*

I would own any of them again. They were or are all great vehicles. I still own the 6 with a * on that list.

The bulk of those Ford vehicles mentioned are mostly pre 2000 models and some around the early 2000's.
Less computers, less hassles and monetary expense imo.

I can't even begin to list the Ford's I've owned over the years. Well over 200 in total. With 4 currently in my possession at the moment,

Are we listing only Fords or all vehicles we owned?
I've made a few mistakes on Fords and others in my life.
It won't be 200 vehicles though. I ain't lived that long.

Just Fords/Merc's. I've also owned some Pontiacs, Chevy's (worked for GM dealer, and still have my G30 Motorhome), Mopar's, 3 AMC, and 1 Fiat, No Hondas, Toyotas, and Nissans. I've probably had 300 total over the years. Mostly just buy drive, sell. I drove 167 times up the Alcan Hiway buying used cars from Seattle for a year and a half 1984-85. Then the State said no more without a dealer's license. I must have made too much money. Damn bureaucratic BS. LOL I was getting damn tired of flying and all that 2550 mile drive every 2 weeks or less anyway.
