Thanks, just looked it up. Not a bad price if one was buying, looks like a nice truck. That's not too far from where my wife lives. Wonder if the guy got the PTM idea from me when I was down there.

Gotta say, for the first time in a long time, on these trucks I prefer the supercab to the crew.

I like all three bodies, but the SCab gives me just the amount of extra room I want. The SCrew, I've had a few loaners, and had one for around 4 days. I'll tell ya, the back seat area is cavernous, it's huge, a little more than I need since the only one that's ever been in the back was my grandson, and dogs.
Who knows, I could wind up with one next time, ha, I've even been looking at SUV's. Likely another SCab though.

Finally got the 150 out and checked out my Goodyear UltraTerrains. The roads are all ice with packed snow on top, but I can see right now, those Handycrap DumboPro AT/M junk, are just that compared to these. Tried it in RWD, ELD locked and open, 4X4 with and without ELD locked. Everything except 4L. I'm happy with them, and would recommend them. Ford must have gotten a very good deal on the Handycrap junk. If that garbage comes on the next truck, it'll never leave the dealer with me driving.

They actually seem to be about the same, maybe slightly better on the packed snow on the ice. I managed to back up with one side in around 16" of snow on the edge of a path I made with my loader. Other side in about 1" dry snow over ice. Never needed to do anything but drive out in RWD without the axle locked. I'm very favorably impressed. I remember when I got them last fall, I drove to Bay City to get them, 90 miles, and noticed on the way back they were as quiet as the Handycraps, and felt no vibrations I didn't feel on the way down. Seem pretty sure footed. I'm liking them.
Since I now have a dirty truck, I'll take it back out when we get some fresh snow, some coming later next week. Crap, I almost hope it turns into a good snowfall.

No I got to look them up to see what they look like.

My work just hired a guy from bay city a year ago, small world! I will definitely give them tires a shot for my next ones. BTW my zevos are going back in for my front turn signals. The switchback white light just doesn't look natural with the truck. My mind wants amber in its place, if you wanna try them I'll send them your way lol.
