I drive a 96 F 150 but its not my everyday driver. I also have a 2003 Psd Reg cab 7.3 diesel an also have a 2007 Ranger. I am from Albion in northeast Nebraska. Get down to Lincoln on occassion. I see one off you guys works at Anderson Ford. Been there several times. I should stop an say Hi. I visit several Ford forums an this one is one off my favorite. Nice to see an active forum for Nebraska around here. I farm here an the weather is sure not cooperating much. Hope everything is going well with you guys an life is treating you well. Catch you guys later

 

So where do you guys work at that are employed. Just kind off curious. Also what towns are you originally from?

 

I'm a lead nurse on one of the busiest areas of the Nebraska Medical Center. RN for 13 years. Live in Omaha, originally from small town Iowa about 45 minutes north of Omaha.

 

Boy that sounds like a tough job. Ive always admired people in the medical profession. People put there lives in your hands an theres no room for error. Im sure nurses dont get paid enough for what they do. Having relatives hospitalized I know first hand how important nurses are. Thanks for the reply.

 

I'm the one that works at Anderson Ford in the Service Department as a Service Advisor. Been here 5 years this coming February. I'm originally from Bismarck, North Dakota where I grew up for 18 years then moved with my parents to Grants Pass, Oregon for a few more years until I decided to move to Lincoln to be closer to some of my friends.




On a completely different side note - the brand new website for SW Fire & Rescue is up. It's pretty cool - still a work in progress though too. Thought I'd share the link here. Don't forget to sign the guestbook!

I started the SW Fire training in August. It's been pretty good so far. Learning lots of medical training and fire training. Should be EMT certified sooner or later.

 

I live, work, and am originally from Omaha. Work for a ATM products design company.

Damn you caught me...... j/k


Yes, it is for sale. But only if anyone is interested and only if the price is right. Don't really want to sell it - but it's just not what I want anymore at this time. I get bored with vehicles really quickly. Especially one that sits in the garage that I only drive on weekends and the occasional trip to work and back. I guess I honestly don't know what I'd do if it does sell - but just kind've seeing if there is any interest out there right now. I really miss my '07 to be honest with you. This truck just doesn't compare to the '07's power and the entire truck actually. Only emails I've received are just spammers so far. I do get to drive it a good 150-175 miles this weekend though pulling a horse trailer to Burchard, NE and back to transport a horse though. We'll see how it does. Getting my brake controller wired in tonight or tomorrow.

 

Welcome Aboard F150Guy.

I live in Lincoln, and am a Claims Adjuster for an insurance company, grew up in central NE.

 

JD790, we knew you were thinking about selling your truck a little bit ago. kinda surprised how nice everyone has been to ya about it

When it does sell, it will always be "your truck", not the guy who bought it!!
Very nice ad you did with it btw, very open and informative. Nobody should think that it was done half-assed with all of your documentation. Good luck with the sell!!

 

Jump_N - thanks! I'm surprised I haven't caught more crap too for even trying to sell it. I drove it to work today. It still puts a big smile on my face to drive it but for some reason it's just not what I want I guess. Then gas jumped up another .14 cents today so that doesn't help anything either, especially for my 100+ mile road trip tomorrow pulling a horse trailer. I doubt it's going to sell anyways - so I'm not too worried about it I guess.

 

Thats one reason I bought my Ranger for gas mileage. My big old PSD gets pretty descent mileage but the Ranger a 4 cylinder 2wd gets 25-30MPG all the time. Drive that most off the time an park the big truck. A year ago when we had this $4.00 gas I bought it. Id really like to have one off these new 150s there pretty sweet. Just happened to try one out. Rode great an handled wonderfully. There supposed to get better mileage then the old. Thanks for the replies guys.

 

JD, Maybe you should trade it for one of those there Raptors. I am sure since you work at Anderson's they would trade you straight across. HAHA!

 

Live in ONeill now; work at a GM dealership.



Feels weird posting in this thread since I havent been on much lately...


Ive been getting a little bored with my pickup too. Will probably just blow some more money on it though.

Finally got my CD player fixed tonight. I had been driving around for 3 weeks without any tunes...I about lost my mind. Now I just need new tweeters:o

 

I have a roadtrip coming up this weekend. Driving out to Scottsbluff on Sunday. That is going to be some gas fund reducer!! I had to drive out to North Platte a couple weeks ago, drove into some nasty frickin' headwinds. My gryphon was showing 9 mpg on way out into some 30 mph winds. Got about 17 mpg on way back with winds pushing me. I used to have a diesel Jetta for these road trips. Could get over 600 miles to a 15 gallon tank, around 42mpg.
