It Was Sad!

Post by ford4x4fun »

So in this class I am doing, part of the course is we are being followed. By the end of the week, we are suppose to be able to tell the instructor who is following our class and what they look like and what vehicles they are driving. So needless to say, everyone is alert. Well on the way to and from the training site, about 30 miles, we are paying attention to everything and everyone. And on the side of the road, there was a 68 or 69 F100 I got all the usual ford jokes from the haters, but what made it sad was there was one of those little stickers in the window that means it had been sitting there to long. The old truck just looked like it needed a hug!

well obviously the follower is in the bump and you fell for the sticker trick making you think it has sat there for a while.
Do i win? :D
Just kidding...
Really though it sounds like a fun course you're in!

Crikes it sure would throw the training 'follower' into a fit if you pulled the truck over and walked over to the truck while your classmates checked the traffic that went by... Maybe I just read too much Tom Clancy back in the day...
