  1. Fantastic trip and excellent photographs to go along with it !! Thanks for posting the tale.
  2. Where would you find a new 250 Yammie for $18,000 ??
  3. This mornings news reported a lady was killed in Toronto last night when a sign blew down from a store and hit her as she was walking past it...very sad.
  4. Beautiful fish and congrats on the PB !!
  5. Fantastic trip, great pictures, and a whole whack of fish for the pair of you fellas Drew, congrats on that !! Andy and I have fished together several times and he's definitely a blast to share a boat with. A group of us fish LSC musky every fall and we're heading down this Friday and just hoping all this crazy wind and rain don't shut them down on us.
  6. Good to hear things are looking up for you Kelvin !!
  7. Great season and even better pictures !! Best one is the moose standing on the road. Worst one was that damned snake in the water coming right at me
  8. I had a 10 KW standby generator installed here at the house last spring for just such a scenario Art. Haven't had to use it yet but it's nice to know it's ready if and when the time ever arrives. Hope you guys do OK down there till the storm blows over.
  9. Maybe free trips for a FEW lifetimes Mike...in YOUR boat
  10. And if you are gonna use a jack in the mud, carry some wide boards to put under it to keep it from sinking too deep in the soft stuff.
  11. I've only been awake 15 minutes and you've got me laughing already Rob...gonna be a great day
  12. Very nice Shaun, awesome looking truck and congrats on your purchase !! From what I've heard, that fuel management system is pretty slick.
  13. Maybe I shouldn't have bought a new truck, woulda saved alot of squabbling.
  14. Couple good looking trucks there guys, thanks for posting the pictures. Twocoda, I like the idea of those lights on your brothers side steps.
  15. :lol:
  16. ..
  17. Nope, I just have a very understanding wife Steve
  18. Maybe more guys like looking at nice new trucks than ugly old sturgeons
  19. When the ash tray gets full Joe, it'll be time to start shopping again.
  20. When I purchased this truck, I went with the Eco Boost just because I've heard alot of good things about it, not because it's gonna save me a whack of money on gas. I wanted to stay with Ford and wanted plenty of towing power and the Eco seems like it'll do what I want. Sounds like it may be somewhat more economical than my current 5.4 and if that's the case, that'll be good, but I'm certainly not expecting a huge savings. I have a glass boat with a 150 HP Yammie and that also goes thru alot of gas but I also knew that when I purchased it a couple years ago. If I was really concerned about the cost of gas, I'd be towing a 12' tinnie with a Honda Civic. We'd all like to pay less for gas, but it ain't gonna happen so we just have to suck it up and if we want to play, we're gonna pay.
  21. Thanks again guys. The red truck has the camera too Greg, but it shows up in the rear view mirror and is only about 2" square and is somewhat hard to see. With the new 8" screen it's gonna be like watching TV. And Joe, your starting to sound like my wife. She asked me why I was buying another new truck already and I told her the red one was getting all dusty. :lol:
  22. :lol:
  23. Thanks Bob, that wasn't the reply I was expecting from you :lol:
  24. Gerry, there's some interesting reading if you rummage thru these pages and some good comparisons between the 5.0 and the Eco Boost. http://www.caranddriver.com/photo-gallery/ford-f-series-review-2011-ford-f-150-ecoboost-drive
  25. Sorry to hear that Paul, it's really tough losing our parents. I watched my dad die from the same terrible disease so I know what you went through.
