Otis Nice

Happy Gilmore confirmed. Watch party? Dafuq is that? Pay $5 to watch at The Arena on the screens with thousands of other fans?

What kind of Happy Gilmore crap is that?

He and Kenny were the reason I ever got into the late night meets way back when. Met at a ColsDSM meet and it was all downhill from there. Through all the trolling and everything he was always cool to me as a young kid with a POS car and is still cool to me as an old kid with a POS car. He's def in our thoughts and prayers.

Interested. BTU's? Pics? Brand?

As I said in chat, this is awesome. I really dig the aspect of making it a project to bond over and revive an older vehicle. Can't wait to see it on the road.

That's what I said to my buddy at the 1st OT. Gonna be a LONG series if this keeps up.

You already know the answer to that.

CatsLOL. Won't solve the prob in an overhang and now you have to buy it food and scoop its shit.

Like I said, they seem to work on sunny days. lol She has them on several sides of the house. Even in shade/under their large front porch they work...sometimes. Last time I was there I noticed a nest on their front porch light but saw no birds in it and no signs of birds other than that. Same concept as the CD's. Also the wind makes them spin and swing around. When hung around the perimeter of the porch roof and moving birds tend to avoid the area. Not sure if it's fail proof but it SEEMS to have helped as far as I can tell.

Mom uses these things. They seem to work ok on sunny days I guess.

I can have 2 or 3 trucks and a trailer available as well. Text me if ya need me.

Nice truck. Congrats.

When you get settled in down south, Doc, let's grab some coffee. You're only a stone throw from us at that point.

Ya know what they say: the squeaky mouse gets the cheese.

Fair enough and my bad. I tend to forget not everyone knows me in person and text doesn't convey emotion. Truth be told it was late and I was multitasking. Didn't mean to offend in anyway but I did chuckle since OP asked about trouble with the Ecoboost and mileage and everyone ranted on about how much Ford's suck. My bad man. Your post was relevant overall in that you were discussing other issues involving ownership of the truck. Jesse, you're right. You also have chatted with me before and know I quite often troll, am sarcastic, etc. I've talked with Mitch about the Tremor's rust in person. The tailgate did have a little. Never looked at the frame. I didn't think it was terrible rust but it was odd that it was happening at all. To that note I've owned and seen vehicles of all makes and models start to rust in short order. Shrug.jif. ...but you bought it used so it was prob due to how the PO treated it. :gabe: Triggered. Fair enough. I've owned Ford, Chevy, and Dodge trucks. IMHO Ford trucks are all around better. It is what it is. Personal experiences and tender feelings will vary. Some folks get REALLY mad if you tell them you've had great experiences over decades of using something and they had a bad one apparently. Simmer all. Another joke. Can't speak on the Mustang issue and I know NB said his rattled and felt cheap. I've never owned one. Nah. :gtfo:

Avoid pellet stoves. Personal experience and opinion. That is all. YMMVshrug.jif

Dad bought his 2013 new and had not a single one of these problems. It has zero rust or any of these to this day. Maybe it's an owner thing. The 5.0 is straight lol. It feels like "a much better truck" in that it's lazy and lags. What's the eng have to do with rust, a rear defroster, shocks and struts, bumpers, belts, and a parking brake? El. Oh. El. Nothing. That's the answer for inquiring minds. There's good info from an informed owner and honest to boot. The MPG's is perplexing. We see, on long vacay's, 21-24 MPG. With towing a 2,500 lb trailer PLUS load we don't hit NEAR 11-14. Something may be off or just YMMV. Shrug.jif. I've known both of these fellas for a very long time and I know they take great care of their vehicles. The rust issue HAS to be from buying used and p.o. treatment. Dad's 2013 still has not one single rust spot on the body or frame and it's parked and driven outside its entire life. I know, I know. It's dad's truck, not mine. I know this is kinda a "ford's suck" environment. I just don't see it personally. We beat the ever loving shit out of trucks. We've had Chevy's, Ford's, Dodge's, and Nissan's, from a VAST age/year range. In our experience, aside from the vintage/classics ('49-'78) the Ford's have never let us down (and even our vintage/classiv Ford's haven't let us down, saying that all the old trucks are fairly equal), always performed, and NEVER been an issue with actually doing truck duties on the regular. YMMV. [ForrestGump]That's all I have to say about that.[/ForrestGump]

That was the joke. Get any Jeep you like so long as it's a 4.0 I6 and you'll be fine. I miss mine.

Ah...so what a bunch of pleebs that also didn't use theirs put online and not personal experience? Got it. Well, I don't belong to "all the F150 groups", so take that for what it's worth, OP. YMMV. On the for real and joking with NB aside, good and bad with anything as usual. We've used ours a lot and hauled a lot. Never a prob, no rust, no issue at all in a 2013 3.5L. That's all I can speak for.

:lolguy: The sock-shoe-sock-shoe part is the worst of all this...well, 2nd worse after having an iPhone. NB = AB.

That's a nice opinion, dear.
