I have a Triton V10, but my next truck will have a diesel.

"You have a short retention span, too, eh."

Retention? Hardly a problem these days--getting plenty of fiber now.

I'm OK. I am just passing through the threads!!

I had to stop in and say "Hey" to some FRiends!!

[Sam's Army]

Oh, no biggie. I made a remark about Ford's and got jumped by some fogey.

[TChris]

The U.S. auto industry is really in trouble -- recent GM developments prove that -- and it all ripples down to quality of their products because that is what is being cut to provide for the socialistic union-pandering overhead costs that are KILLING this industry, just like it killed the steel industry in this country...

Well, if the unions don't kill them, then the combination of unions and product liability class-action lawyers certainly will.

I try not to bad-rap any other person's drive or ride, that's why we have so many choices.

C'mon Blackie, Spktyr's just trying to liven things up by funnin with us.

Besides, everyone knows Jeeps are for sissys.

Damn ~ you do have a sense of humor. :):)

This conversation was almost becoming like one of those pro-Harley, anti-Harley ~ pro-sports bike, anti-sports bike threads. :)

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

It is funny how people fight over their favorite make of vehicle!!

How's things?

[blackie]

Thanks Pretty ~ you be da best!

How's the hubby doing, all healed up?

[Sam's Army]

Busy, but not busy enough if you get my drift.

"This conversation was almost becoming like one of those pro-Harley, anti-Harley ~ pro-sports bike, anti-sports bike threads. :)"

Those Harley fights get nasty!!! I've been in a few of those threads.

[Sam's Army]

"Damn ~ you do have a sense of humor. :):)"

I'm only a part-time crumudgeon.

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

Ankle is still giving him trouble. I think he may have to go back and get it checked.

[Jersey Republican Biker Chick]

Well, I would suggest you go get busy then!! ;o)

Keep Smiling!

[RightWhale]

Should have been made out of metal

They have magic ways with metal, too.

[blackie]

I found out a couple of posts ago that some of these anti-Fords cats actually have sense of humor. :):)

I won't say anything bad about Jeeps ~ one of my best friend has one and she's a great looking blonde, too. ;)

[blackie]

I'm a full time old curmudgeon. ;)

[blackie]

Ankle and wrist injuries take a longer to heal ~ I guess it's all of those moving parts. ;)

Give him my best, I rootin' for him, don't want to keep a good man down!

I have a friend who owns a 96 Explorer. It has 314,000 miles and still runs pretty good. He tore up the transmission about 3 years ago but maintains it was his fault, not Ford's.

I desperately want a new Mustang GT, black in color, with a red stripe. That would be the shiznit.

Thanks!!
