Chevy Guy (or I used to be)

Hey everybody. As of today, I'm a Ford owner for the second time in my life. I picked up an '88 F150 4X4 today to replace an S10 that wasn't exactly aging gracefully. I wasn't specifically looking for a Ford, but I got a deal on my F150 that I couldn't pass up. It needs a few things here and there (and I'm sure I'll spend plenty of time here discussing what it needs) but for $500 it's a lot of truck. Here she is:

Hope it treats me well. I'm sure it will.

No complaints so far. I had a '78 Chevy that was bulletproof, but it was a 3/4 ton with a 10.5" 14-bolt differential, so it got terrible mileage. I ended up selling it after I got the S10.

Thanks for the welcome everybody.
