I'm still around but I generally hang out in the 4th Gen forums. There's no pesky HAC in there.

yup, I know... The reflection of me in my work clothes and the upside down wheelbarrow kind of destroy the illusion of this being my bed liner....

DTR seems to be fading off if this timeless classic only gets brought up every six months or so!

F150's don't have the payload for as many parts as they need, but seriously, most half tons only carry the groceries.

The Nipponese half tons carry about 3/4 of a ton.
