tri_guy Posted April 30, 2012 Share Posted April 30, 2012 Hi group, my names Jon, and I have a problem,... I need a much larger garage then I currently have. It took some time, but I finnaly made the change over from GM. My father has always been a Ford man from his 66 Ford Fairlane GTA and 67 Ranchero (current project) to his work trucks. for whatever reason I always ended up with a GM. But now after a few let downs, and seeing the incrediable strides that Ford has been making I decided it was time to get my own Blue Oval. My Raptor should be built this month cant wait to get my hands on it This forum seems like a good place to connect with all that is Ford so hopefully I get to chat with some of you soon about whats new, whats to come, and maybe even some of what was. I am a Mechanical Engineer for a robotics company. So I love seeing some of the new inovation taking place in the automotive industry. Current vehicales are: 1970 GMC Stepside ( i know its not a ford but i built it before coming to my senses) 2004 Aprilia RSV 1000 1995 Harley Davidson FatBoy 2012 Ford F-150 Raptor (replaced my 2004 GMC) ~J 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barrelmike Posted May 1, 2012 Share Posted May 1, 2012 Congratulations on the new truck and leaving GM. I've never been brand biased but after being burned by GM a few years back I swore them off for life. I too am new to Ford recently ordered a 2013 flex limited w/ ecoboost. The raptor is a sweet truck I'm sure your going to love it and all the power. What color did you get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cloe15 Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 (edited) congrats on the new purchase, I was also raised on ford but strayed away. I sold my 2001dodge 2500 deisel and ordered a Fx4 F-150 S-crew EB with the max tow package. With what ford has done in the last few years it was an easy choice to return to ford.

tri_guy Posted May 14, 2012 Author Share Posted May 14, 2012 The Raptor i ordered is Blue, Crew Cab. The only GM i own now and have no intentions of getting rid of is my 1970 GMC Stepside. J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
