    Well @shooter19802003 turns out it probably is covid after all Lol. My that was over visiting tested positive. Not even gonna bother getting tested, almost positive that's what it is. All 3 of us have it. I'm the only one running a fever, low grade 99.8°

    I don't feel too bad, some muscle aches and a sore throat, that's it really. We got 1 load to do Sunday night/Mon morning and that's it for the week. Had to happen the week my brother is coming back to visit Lol but he's already had it a few months ago. He gets here Tuesday or Wednesday, one of those days, I think Tuesday.

    My uncle that got covid was vax'd and boosted:cool: really really effective. Psssh

    When I was young we had the same except older, I forget what year I'll have to ask dad. One of the quarries my dad had was about a 45 min drive on all back roads and he got about the same mpg with the ole gutless 6.2

    Nobody believed me when I said it got that much mpg unless they were familiar with it. Almost 300k on the clock. It's still up at the quarry on top of the hill behind one of my friends house.. Some fresh fuel and a new battery and I bet she fires right up Lol. Too far gone to be road worthy. We were actually just talking about bringing it back home and putting a plow on it and using it for a woods truck.

    Edit: single cab 1 ton with a wooden stake body bed we custom made for firewood

    Ain't that the truth. A little ice and NJ was like a war zone the other day. You'd swear it was Iraq after we dropped some fire from the sky

    Lol, I'm like a prophet.
    Ahhh, you'll be alright. Everybody In my house has had it aswell. Your a straping young man, you'll get through it in no time. Besides, it gives you a reason to be lazy for a bit.

    Guess I'll go change rad hoses :(

    I have bacon to fry up when I'm done so there's my motivation.

    Trust Ford to build a truck where you have to remove the battery, battery tray AND throttle body to change the upper rad hose and tee junction :confused: 20220108_110232.jpg
