Nahhhh. I’m around. Just been lurking while working.
I had my son for a couple weeks and was juggling time with him and work

We got him his first truck while he was here.
1999 F-150 Extra cab, 4x4, Lariat.
So between some minor repairs and some fun times with him, I stayed busy as hell.

Agreed.

He was pretty open with his choices. But, I’m a Ford man and I already had been working on a deal for this one.
He loved it at first sight/drive.

He’s growing up so fast. He turned 16 July 5th and is 6’ tall. 1” shorter than me. I bet he hits 6’3 before he stops growing.

He’s a stout little **** too. All that bull dogging must be paying off.

Because I have to work with literal idiots I got caught in a thunderstorm with my coworker. We hid under an info board for half an hr. She froze her ass off the rest of the day.

Never trust someone who communicates primarily with 5 year old kids. They have that job because they are very stupid and their intel is also stupid.

I've got a '98 F-150 with 81,000 miles on it. It's like new inside. My dad drove it to Hardee's, the grocery store and the golf course.IMG_4635.JPG

It was so difficult taking him to meet his mom in Little Rock. I damn near cried all the way home.

What is it about men and their father's truck after their father passes? I kept my dad's f250 for 9 years.

I don't know, but I plan to keep this one from now until......

I've had it over a year and I put 8,000 on it as it's just a back up vehicle. At that pace it should last me 20 years. I'll be the old guy driving the antique truck.

So........
I’m working on signal Mountain. On the way to work traffic up the mountain is stopped because one lane is closed for repair. At a merge point a guy in a 2017 Silverado 4 door (I know this because I got his tag number) passed all the people waiting in line and pulled up next to me. He stated moving in on me. There was no gap for him to fit in. I’m not letting someone in who is acting like a dick. We move forward slowly and he’s getting closer. We’re running out of room and he’s getting closer. His front bumper is by my front tire. He is screaming at me. I’m not looking at him but the guys that work for me said “he’s losing his mind”. I’m not concerned because he’s in the lane that’s ending and I’m in line.
He punched the gas and side swiped my truck as hard as he could at 5 Miles an hour. I called 911 to explain there had been a collision in slow traffic leaving out that it was intentional on his part. They say to go to the top of the mountain and exchange insurance information and call in to schedule a police report. We get to the top. He passed me and gave me the finger as he sped away. I got his tag number and called the number I’d been given by 911.
They came and took the report and put out an APB on the guy for hit and run.

People are crazy. Why would you hit a 2008 f250 work truck with a 2017 crew cap nice truck? Then run away. All because you want to be 10 feet further up in stop and go traffic.

Crazy but I’m getting a new paint job on my truck thanks to his insurance company
