It’s been almost a year. A lot of financial set backs but his 500,000+ mile work truck/office lives and runs!!!! Ban cars? Lol yeah sure. Just go ahead and ban the back bone of America then. I think NOT!!!!! Long live the working class and their trucks!!!!!!

I am online trying to find one OEM Ford F-250 16.5 wheel. We found a bed for it with lights and bumper in very good condition for $250. Just some final adjustment, the bed, and a gooood detail.

My dad is glad to have the beast back.

Right you are. Unfortunately, these sort of trucks are going through the same thing on a weekly basis by criminals. It is insane how many smash and grabs are happening

saw this while surfing craigslist, thought of your dad’s truck.

Probably wouldn’t want to bother giving Michigan to Texas but thought I’d send a link:

nice work box!!!! Turns out the the rear axle assembly did bend after all. A good used one is about $160 at a couple places here. We’ll probably pick that up tomorrow.

Save all the 7.3's!!!!!!!
