Chris Lyons said that I could be in the secret club, now.

Can I? Can I, please?

I wish the circumstances surrounding buying this truck were different. It's a long, long story ...

Damn Mitch, you big ballin' now....Looks just like the Truck John George just bought a few months ago but his is white... You better price those E range tires in 20" before you buy!!! :shock:

The next inductee meeting of the He-Man-Chevy-Haters-Club will be held in November. We'll add you to the list of candidates, but given your recent performances as the Master-Baiter of Texas AI/CMC, I'm not so sure your application will be looked upon kindly.

My best advice would be to be kind and thoughtful toward all things Ford, including the Mustang racers, until November and perhaps the powers that be will overlook your history.

What do you say? :lol:

-=- Todd

PS- Congrats on the truck! There WAS a CMC saying in the 90's on the West Coast...."Race with a Ford...Tow with a Chevy". I don't think it applies anymore...but sure hope you're not 180 degrees off. :shock:

Damn! That was a prime reason I didn't buy a 1/2 ton dodge in 02 because the 20" tires at the time were $385 ea...it took 2 years for the prices to come down and knowing how quickly I would go through them, I said Nope!

Man, that is cheap for 20's. Knowing how much the Ford is gonna cost ya, nice to get a price break something like tires where/when you can!

Congrats on the new truck Mitch. I'm pretty sure you'll love it.

Even with the injector issues, I still dream about my 04'. But that's another story...

Hey Mitch. If it is a '04, I have a Superchips programmer I had for mine with the program loaded back onto it that I'll let you have cheap. Mine would smoke the tires all the way through 2nd gear with the programmer.

Thanks for the offer, Rayman ...

It's an 07, though
