WOW! What a contest! We started out with five very deserving, beautiful examples of Ford trucks and then were reduced to four. I want to thank the four contestants for being good sports and I would like to thank a former member for creating some excitement, even though it was a bit strange. I also want to thank all the voters!

As a tie breaker, we will have a 7 day run off. Good luck to both of you as you have beautiful trucks that I, for one, would be happy to drive as my own.

This is going to take some thinking. I'll report back with a vote later.

I always thought a tie was decided by RP flipping a coin? (as per the rules)

It was decided that since none of the moderators could be present with RP for the coin toss that a runoff would be a little more judicious. Not that RP isn't trusted, not the point at all.

It was felt this was the better way to decide the contest, but if this ends up tied, we may have to revert to a coin toss.

OK Blue and Cherokee do not take this the wrong way, but why bother to vote, since voting for each other essentially cancels each other out?

And I certainly hope you both would have the integrity to not vote for one's self. My personal opinion is that none of the TOTM nominees should even be allowed to vote but I know there is no way to prevent that.

Just curious is all.

I hear ya but in all honesty the first timed I voted I really did like Blue's truck it was the nicest in my opinion besides mine, not taking anything away from the other trucks, I just liked Blue's the best out of the remaining trucks to vote for now its just good sportsmanship kinda like having to shake hands after getting your butt kicked in a game you really don't want to but you kinda have to Just kidding I still like Blue's truck.
