I traded the truck in.

I bought an 06' F150 XLT R/C F/S 4x4 5.4L. Black w/ Grey/flint interior. Zero % financing. I will be buying another L in a few years and keep the above as my winter beater. Maybe I'll latch on to one of those GQ's or Ford will have their head out of there collective a$$es and put a Gen 3 out.

.

It's not smart to produce a Gen 3 with gas over 2 bucks a gallon.

Thanks Al,
I like the truck but it doesn't have any nuts. That will take awhile to get used to. Half the time I think the engine stalled because it's so quiet. At least I won't have to wait for the plow to come so I can get my truck out.

As far as work goes been employed with the same contractor for the last 1.5 years. I'm working at IBM.

The house is doing good. Unfortunatly, I've only spent 5-6 nights there since buying it. I got a promotion on the ship I'm on, and with the promotion came a catch 22....NO VACATION for a while!!!!

Let me know what you got for parts too!
