New guy stopping in to say HI

How yall are?

I'm a new Ford truck owner stopping in to check things out.
I just recently purchased a 2000 F150 Lariat Supercab after my 95 Ford Aerostar van got totaled in a accident (not my fault).
It's fully loaded with the 4.6 liter engine with 102,000 miles on it.
It is one sweet ride and is in excellent condition for its age.
Just got finished changing the oil in it, used Mobil 1 5w30 with the Mobil 1 filter.
Makes me wish I had gotten a Ford truck sooner!
Y'all take care.
Big Rob

Well the accident was caused by a 19 year old not watching what he was doing
and hit a lady that was stopped in her lane waiting to turn. He hit her from
behind, spinning her into my lane and all I could do was apply breaks and cut the wheel
to the right to avoid her.....NOT. I hit her on the passenger side right on the tire. I was not ticketed at all. That 19 year old though is in a world of trouble. I just hope he has enough insurance to cover all the crap he caused.
I will post pics of the new (to me) truck when I get some batteries for my camera. It is vermilliion red with tan along the lower doors & fenders/bed.
Thanks for the warm reception guys!
