Got some depressing news fellas...

I've been seperated from the wife for a month and I'm pretty sure I'm going the D route. Never been so happy and with a positive outlook on life, so all is good.

I'm going to sell my SHO. The '11 F-250 is paid for, so want to get rid of the payment and get $5k back in the bank to pay off a credit card. Local dealer offered me $23K. SHO has 30K miles. It's a fair offer. Carmax offered me $22K.

I like driving the truck more anyways and someday I'll get back into a quick sedan. But I think I'm a truck guy for now.

I'll post back if I sell it.

So sorry to hear, PM, best of luck with the big D, and with the sale of the SHO. Sucks you have to do all this, but being happy is way underrated, so go for it. Def keep us posted with what's going on!

I'm so glad to see the defroster by the built in camera working especially after having a new windshield installed last fall. Z

Do you have an MDesign intake, Z? Curious if it would help reduce the soot issue.

I'v had Navi added to my car for quite sometime now from Jason over at www.fordpimods.com and it has been working Flawlessly,contacted Siruis fm to renew my annual subscription and also to add travel link which is at an additional cost,spoke to Alfred over at Siruis fm and not only did he give me a geat deal but also was able to manually activate the travel link to the added Navi,a win on both fronts.
