I have recently become a widower and am going to consolidate a few things. Before marrying(48 yrs), I only had a pickup. I have mostly owned GM trucks. I don't really see a need to keep 2 vehicles,(think Insurance,tag fees and taxes), so I am considering trading off my 97 G.M.C. 2500 p,u. and her 2005 Ford Escape and having only a nice pick up. There is nothing really wrong with either vehicles and they have been kept up very well. Mileage is in the 250K range on the 97 GMC and 210k on the 2005 Escape I just don't feel wise to keep both since I can't drive both at the same time. A spare is not a problem since my daughter and her family have an extra if I need it. I am looking at the Ford 150 series trucks in the 2007-2010 range. Local dealer has several good ones. I don't like the way that Government Motor Co, handled the recent auto market fiasco and DO NOT want a Dodge product. Her Escape has really impressed me with it's dependability and service plus it drives and handles nicely. It has restored my confidence in Ford products,plus they handled the recession problems on their own, not with government bailout money. Any suggestion/recommendation on this as far a year model. I can't justify the need for a diesel or anything like a V-10 engine. I will pull a 7500 lb rated tamden trailer occasionally with a small maybe 2500 lb tractor on it. What wisdom do you wish to offer me? Gene Davis

Today's Featured Article - The Fordson F Ignition System - by Anthony West. A fellow restorer contacted me earlier this year asking for some help and advice on a model F that he was restoring. He had over a period of months spent a fair amount of his hard earned cash on replacement parts for the old "trembler" ignition. Sadly though all his efforts seemed to be a waste of time and money as he still couldn''t get the temperamental old thing to run correctly!! If i said that this was a little frustrating for him that would be "conservative" in fact the problem had reduce
