A few years ago one of my buddies dragged us to a party way out in the middle of nowhere at some ranch so he could hookup with some random girl, while her entire extended family was one room over! We were under the impression that we were just going to a party. Kid had some stones, I'll give him that much. I ain't risking getting buckshot in my *** and on my truck from 8 different relatives

Its worth it over the standard brakes. Remember most of the L guys think its not worthit because they havent ever had the standard F150 brakes to compare to.

I'd border more on saying that was stupidity than anything else...

Went over to Brownsboro yesterday eve, checked on the farm. The tenant running cows is really taking good care of the place. It's so quiet and beautiful there. Love that place.

The pond was overflowing at the spillway, my grandson will be excited about the fishing possibilities coming up soon.

14mpg sounds good right now. I used to average around that, but its getting worse. 275 miles on the trip when the low fuel light clicked on. Just over 22 gallons for not even 300 miles. Damn it.

That trailer seems like over kill for the load. But its probably what you have available. ...
