I was meaning to do a contest last year when I traveled around Utah on the way home to Montana but somehow life got too busy for me to do it. I decided to do it this year since I am sorting out rough to sell so here goes.... Prize is SFRB of tumbling rough from Utah, AZ, and Montana. Most of it I picked up on my trip last year. Here's the picture of it:  The contest is to guess the mileage on my old truck before I traded it in for a different one in January. Keep in mind it was a 2002 F150 that traveled quite a bit, including a few trips from Montana to Arizona, a whirlwind trip wandering through Utah, and trips all over Montana for work. I bought it in 2004 in Texas with about 46,000 miles on it. That's all the hints you get for now. The winner will be either the first one who guesses the exact mileage or the first one to guess the closest to the mileage when the contest ends. One guess per person per day please. Contest ends in one week from today, Sunday, April 13th at noon Montana time. If I get a chance I may post another hint or two if noone is even close to the mileage in a few days. Good luck. |

have you never heard what FORD stands for? Both of mine reinforced the principle... FORD. Fix Or Repair Daily! Or is it Found On Road Dead. Until I tore my 67 Mustang apart and completely rebuilt the engine and tranny myself and the undercarriage by a specialty shop, it was just one big problem. Afterwards, it was nice till some lady ran a stop sign and t-boned it into oblivion. And the Maverick was a total waste of money that I sold shortly after buying.
