Yes, you have my permission to use it as the background on your desktop.


You have mickey mouse on your truck? Seems...appropriate, eh?

Love the license plate. Who doesn't like Micky? Communists maybe.
The only thing wrong is the American flag inside the Bow Tie. Should be
a likeness of OhBamah showing off the union label.

EWWW! That hurt. If Ford had been making a decent diesel, I'd be in a Ford. Have to admit, though, I
like the comfort of the Silverado.

John, I really like the bow tie and the license plate both.

Really snazzy!

He could've bought a Ford.

Probably so, but to get a good ford diesel you'd have to find an old 7.3 power stroke and those are getting hard to come by unless they're worn out. The NEW Ford diesel is a nightmare. Anything beyond changing the fluids just about requires pulling the entire cab!

That way I can throw the bicycles on the front while towing. Works well. It's a Curt hitch which I
installed in the garage. No problems whatsoever.

If it can handle the weight it's also nice for moving trailers around in
tight spaces.

I am going to install one on the front of my truck. Where I store my boat,
the slot where I have to turn the boat to back in has been rented to a long
trailer, and take lots of shifting back and forth to get it in it's
shelter.

Yeah, I have heard once you get it down it's a real help... Never tried
one but I suppose it would.

At one point during the installation, I though the thing was too big to fit between the frame
members. It turned out I had cocked it to one side just a bit. It fit with maybe a half millimeter
of free play on each side.
