"Think" my tractor hauler is ready to roll.
The Grille Guard off the '08 just wouldn't fit the new body style, so had to order a new one from down in Texas.
Anyway, after rolling around under that rascal on a creaper for a couple of hours (not an easy chore fer an old man), I finally got the thing strapped on the truck. Nice part about this one is that I can't see it from the driver's seat. :>)
Oh, and just as an aside, after too many years out in the wilderness, Ford finally got this one right. I'm really likin' the mileage it's getting.
Bangin' 'round out in the country feeding my critters, it's running a real strong 19 mpg and just lopin' down the hiway, it's lookin' for 22. That double overdrive really makes a difference.
Should get better when the fuel switches back to #2 in the summer, I'm thinkin'.
Okay, that's my beller fer this morning; those old cows are probably lookin' fer me. :>)
