New Truck!!

Postby Thegreatwapiti » 06 08, 2022 •  [Post 1]

The eagle has landed! After waiting for 2 years (I ordered on Jul 19, 2020) I finally took possession of my new Bronco today. Now I just need my first scratch and my first blood stain!!

Looks good! Just walk out and hit it with a hammer right now to get that first ding and scratch out of the way.

Looks great. I can see by the color you did not want anyone to notice your new Bronco. :lol:

BTW: My F150 is supposed to be here in about a month. I found out today that it is in Kansas on a train headed my way. It must be the world's slowest train if it takes six weeks to transport it here from Flint Michigan. Do you suppose it is in a wagon train?

Mine took about 12 days from Michigan to Denver by rail. Another 3 days to get to the dealer.

My truck has been in the transport mode for over 12 days already. I believe I was assigned to the slowest ship in the navy, and we could go from San Diego to Japan in three weeks and have a lay-over in Pearl Harbor. This transportation situation is getting ridiculous. I understand we need more truckers, but the trains are still supposed to run on time.

You do not need any scratches on that beauty, but some backroad dust or mud will look good.
