The story

I bought this in Arizona, still waiting for her to be shipped. I have been a Ford gal my whole life. I recently sold my beautiful clean 1990 Ford Bronco and was driving a 2004 X5 BMW. Nothing can compare with the beauty of an American made beast...not even all the buttons, glam and shine of a BMW . I told my husband I wouldn't keep a BMW that long, so he shouldn't bother getting me one, but he didn't listen. HAHA!
I love the Ford family. Husband is the BMW fan, I like the simple beauty of the Fords and though she is a V6, she has all her matching numbers, she is pristine through and through, and she is gonna be all mine.
I am sure I will have tons of questions for the forums, but I will try not to sound like a girl. But I can't promise I won't post tons of pics.
I have had two F-150's, One a 1994, one a 2000 (sold that one to my dad because he kept buying really horrible vehicles and needed a good truck).
lets see, I have also had a 1994 Explorer
1994 Taurus, who is still on the road, and I sold her when she had 240k, 6 years ago. Not sure if she got a new engine, but I still see her.
And of course my 1990 Bronco. Which I miss dearly, but we needed something more practical...yah, not doing that again!
all of these ran like dreams, never broke down (Hmmm can you guess where the X5 is right now...costing me money in a shop, that is where)
I am super excited to have the Fairlane sitting in my garage, and look forward to the time I get to spend putting my upgrades into her, but I do love that she is stock, even her 13 inch dog dish wheels.
I plan of keeping her classy and true to her nature, and if I do an engine upgrade, she will get an engine from a 500. — FairladyFairlane
