Hi `Ryan,
I know it's a Ford, but it's a beauty & I love the look
and also that it is a 4X4 with a Cap : )
I was looking 4ward to seeing `it, so thanks for
sharing...
You sure can go places in your truck, that you could not `go
in your Monte in them there Mountain's around
BuzzKill, Pa. : )
What options does it have ? Does everything work ?
Look 4ward to reading about all your adventures &
finds that you run in2...
Wish you many `fun/safe trouble`free miles...
