Take a look at this moron....

Some guy is selling a set of KR emblems on ebay. Take a look at the crock of $*#% he put in his description!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eb...251536&r=0&t=0

What's really funny is the buy it now price. Does he actually think they will get that high? After all, they are only $24.99 each.

Perhaps if they were Harley Ford F-150 emblems he may sucker someone in... I agree with you... he's got to be kidding himself.....someone should suggest .... "wakey, wakey, hands off snakey!!!!"

I noticed those emblems on ebay earlier. That is a crock. However, as the harley guy mentioned, the Harley Emblems are around $150 per because they're metal...

I might bid... maybe I can make some more new toys...

If they go for less than $50, then they're a decent deal. Otherwise, as the buy price indicates, he's sorely mistaken that they are that expensive.

I know some Harley owners have had problems keeping their fender badges. Makes you wonder if these are stolen... It makes no mention that they are 'new in plastic'.

I'm going to email him and see if he'll give me a part # or if they're in plastic. I figure this is a good way to 'weigh him out'. The guy has several negative feedbacks...

Lenticular, check out my pics in the gallery. I've only just posted them in the last few days. Vehicle cost about $105K (Ozzie bucks) which is about 50K USD. Not bad seeing the government "Downunder" taxes the proverbial backside out of any new vehicle purchased whether it is built in Oz or imported....but you Poms surely get shafted when it comes to putting the gas in them. What's it now..about STG1.00 a litre Downunder it is about 85 Oz cents a litre (4.5 litres to the gallon for you Yankies which is about USD2.00 a gallon at current exchange rates. At STG 1.00 that works out at USD 7 a gallon!!!!

Lenticular, the place that bought in mine for me bought in 5 other HD's - one with the same factory specs (rear sliding window, moon roof and 6 stack CD and the remainder are base specs). Haven't seen a King Ranch "Downunder" , come to think of it I don't even know whether they are bringing them in.

Ford Australia are NOT selling teh F-150 model but are importing F-250's and F-350's that have been built (?????) in Brazil. Ford sell a locally built Falcon XR8 ute and they must be afraid that the better F-150's would eat into their own market. Should see the reaction when I take my ute to the local Ford dealer.... they all just stand their with tongues hanging out... I have said to them "Shame you don't sell them isn't it!":o
