This will be just \u00a0a quick post featuring some photos of our “new” 2005 Ford F150 pick-up truck. I brought it home yesterday (Saturday) and will be getting used to it over the next few weeks. Ford does have an Owner’s Manual on-line which I read and found a few interesting details, such as the rear window is a power window that can be opened to let a whole lot of air flow through the cab.<\/p>\n

Pam has not yet named the truck (the trailer is now “The Box”) so I’ll just refer to it as the F150. I’ll start with a walk-around of the outside:<\/p>\n

\"Side<\/a>

Side view – F150<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Front<\/a>

Front view – F150<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Rear<\/a>

Rear quarter-view – F150<\/p><\/div>\n

\"rear<\/a>

rear view – F150<\/p><\/div>\n

The interior is as pictured in my previous post, but here are a couple additional photos:<\/p>\n

\"Rear<\/a>

Rear seating area – dogs will ride in comfort.<\/p><\/div>\n

\"Driver's<\/a>

Driver’s side of cab. Very comfortable.<\/p><\/div>\n

I will have a few things to check out on the truck, such as making sure the spare tire carrier (which cranks up and down) works OK and check all the fluid levels. Now that there are no below-freezing temps in the extended forecast we will be provisioning the trailer and hope to pull it up to the lot before the end of the month.<\/p>\n

One problem…the F150 will not fit through the garage door! The truck is too tall. I never expected that. Now we will have to figure out how \/ where to park it so we don’t have to move it every time we want to take the Honda out of the garage. Always something!<\/p>\n

That’s it for now. Thanks for looking in!<\/p>\n

Pam’s two cents worth:<\/p>\n

Can’t you just picture a cool “other color” on the bottom side panels of the truck and around the wheel wells, with some jazzy graphics dancing across the doors? \u00a0If we leave the thing plain white, I’ll never be able to find it in parking lots…I need something distinctive to identify my parked ride. \u00a0Such are the problems of aging.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
