    I forgot to tell you....

    When I was at FFW in Atlanta this past weekend I won the "Best Marauder" plaque and the "People's Choice" award (another plaque) which is based on the popular vote. I thought this was a pretty cool part of the weekend too!

    Here is a video of me accepting the "Best Marauder" award. You can listen to the women butcher my last name. It's kind of funny!

    Nice! I scan the local papers each Sunday waiting for local car shows to start up, nothing so far. Can't wait to go to one.

    Rest area, rest home -- what difference does it make? I'm sure Grandma enjoyed seeing all those big trucks pulling in and out.

    Ouch?! Anyway, Congrats Marty.
    (#6178 in black per FPIC)
    Call 1-800-FORD-788 and press "1". Have the last 6 of your VIN handy. You will get the numbers for FREE. You'll pay $$$ for the certificate.

    MM traded in 8/9/13 @ 128909 miles. It was fun for almost 8 years. I met airmercpun on 1/17/14. He was the new owner of my former ride. -Now gone.

    Update: back in the game with a late build 03 GMGS with some MM add ons like Escape audiophile radio w/Sirius sat radio, rear sway bar, catback exhaust, and header panel.

    Rest In Peace:

    See my garage file for part numbers and whatnot.

    IMHO, this site- the members that I chat with- and the ones that I now Hang with- are like my 2nd family. There is such an ongoing welcome feeling here that even members who don't or no longer own the MM can feel.
