Well, I have to admit that even our government gets it right sometimes.

Just relax and enjoy the learning curve. It won't take long before you can can do it all in 30 minutes without any effort. And the good part is, if you forget something, IT WON"T SINK. Good luck and happy camping.

I am a died in the wool Ford man. Never driven anything else and probably never will. That said, if you are looking at anything from '03 through '05, the Chevy is probably the best way to go. ------------------------Dang, it hurt to say that!

There is no doubt that the V10 was one of the best gasser tow vehicles made. But, now that we have got you converted to an oil burner, you won't want to go back. Congratulations on the new ride!

LOL Well guys enough researching on the Internet. Tomorrow I have an appointment with the truck salesman at one of the local Ford dealerships. We'll see how it goes. Rob Glad to hear it, Rob.
