I thought that pretty much summed up how ugly it was. Tom https://tstage9.wixsite.com/nyc-modeling Time...It marches on...without ever turning around to see if anyone is even keeping in step.

Now they are introducing a prototype called the F-250 Super Chief. What else can we expect from Ford? A winning football team?

It didn't last very long. Smitty Reply Anonymous Member sinceApril 2003 305,205 posts Posted by Anonymous on Friday, January 20, 2006 1:26 PM Plastic Brandy Tumblers?!!
