You're luck with neighbors is in the low percentile, you realize that ? That stinks. More cookies for you

BTW- jprevat knows his stuff about trees...I might better of corked it once he arrive. Hope I didn't offend jp, seriously. Just in case.
LOL.... at least these guys aren't loud and always yelling at me..... they just suck at yard care and landscaping, lmao. And they don't talk.

Here are a couple pics of that interior. Notice the "EDGE" tuner on the dash...... pretty nice interior - wish it was a direct swap into a 10th gen, lol.

I really thought that maybe 10thgenfanatic was someone else and gave it a shot to help him but either he isn't doing what we are telling him, is not doing it right, or is just yanking our chains. He is at that point where he needs to take it to a shop.

Right? He either dismisses what you say or says when he checked something it was normal and then continues on his quest of finding someone telling him to replace some magical part that will fix all his issues


Also I know some people were talking about exhausts, got this in my email for the FTE site. It's 15% off flowmaster if anyone is interested

ROFL, - fess up, I wouldn't be aloud to even look at a tree and thrown into a pit with your truck until it was tip top.

Quiet jerks are better than loud, obnoxious ones. On the suckers/shoots, we had lilac bushes (well, they were the size of trees) at an old house. I just kept mowing them down, and they finally gave up. The poplars might be the same, maybe?

Other than a bit of wear on the driver's seat, that interior looks like it's in great shape! Yeah, a part-out will definitely net a tidy profit.

As for Skylar, I've quit even looking at his threads.

Skylar has been banned on a number of Facebook sites. He should be run out of here on a rail also. LOL. You guys who keep answering his questions are no help either. LOL LOL LOL Damn enablers. Whew. Rant over.

That said, Good morning guys. I hope everyone is doing well. We are sending wet weather to you guys. I hope it helps the dryness out, as it saturated everything here. Wow. Wet.

I took a hitch, very similar and clean, off a 2007 F150 the other day. It is the adjustable width style, with the arms interchanging, so It can be used about anywhere. Anyways, I am going to mount it in the front of lil Red so when I put my boat in or out of the water, I have a better way to get around the tight areas at a couple places I like to drop him in.

Curt has a premade hitch, that I'm taking my measurements from, and if I need to but an arm, no problem. It is totally hidden so it wouldn't be an eye sore.

Whitey, I can only see $$$$$ signs with that pickup. I know you can sell many dollars worth of parts and recoup what was lost on the other engine.

I yearned for a front hitch when I had my TT. It would have been SO much easier to push the thing up our long driveway, and then maneuver it into its parking spot. As it was, I had to back it up the hill (which was the reason for my 2WD LO mod), drop it, then hook it to my wife's Escape for final positioning, as the wheelbase of the truck made it nearly impossible.

What would've been perfect for that job is one of the 4-wheel-steer tugs we used to move weapons trailers around up in Minot.
