Whoever is in charge of Ford Cold Climate Testing...

Whoever they are..

You could see the future, couldn't you.. You just KNEW that a GM fanboy would be owning this truck. I RAEG! I RAEG FOR YOUR SNEAKY B*****DNESS!!

Ok, it started as a simple errand to get a pizza for dinner. Yeah, you know the run of the mill 'no dinner so pizza time and I don't feel like delivery' trip to the local Little Ceasers? Well, little did I know that it'd turn into a 2 hour escapade in impromptu field repair on the lift door on the Exploder. Opened the lift gate to throw a bag of trash in to run it to the dumpster (it's 3F ambient air.. yeah.) and what do you know..

The latch fails to re-engage. Can't close the door, cant even drive the truck. So, after several choice words with my local service dept and AAA I decided to fix it myself.

And succeeded. For now, that is.

Right now that door will never be able to be opened until I get it over to said service department and get both that door and the drivers door locks replaced (drivers door failed last week..how convenient.)

I love you too god. This had better mean that I'm going to get free 2SS/RS..

FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU............ .

They did, they did.. It was just so cold that it made it that much harder. That and I am a rage-a-holic right now, what with nerves on edge about a possible new job. Just something that Zabo didn't want to deal with when Zabo wants his pizza..

NO ONE SEPARATES ZABO FROM HIS PIZZA! NO ONE!

Problem #1... Its a Ford.

2nd of all no such thing as a free Camaro...

and 3rd.. you might want to edit your first post because this can be considered a death threat and now-a-days they don't take it lightly at all... (hope no one sees this and reports you.. or you may get into some legal trouble.)

It's just the internet, but oh well. Changed and I suggest you also do the same. My replacement irate comment is something I find much less threatening..but funnier as well.
