New F150 in Tennessee

Hi folks! I just bought a 2010 F-150 Super Crew. This is my first new Ford in a long time (I had a Mustang in the mid 90s but it was not exactly the best car for child/infant car seats, so I had to let it go). My new truck is "Blue Flame" and I'm beyond happy with it. My wife and girls seem to be pretty happy with it, too. (I'll post a picture or two of it once I can figure out how!)

Anyhoo, I'm enjoying reading the articles and posts! Very cool site!

Thanks for the welcome, folks!

Here's a shot of my truck as it was sitting at the dealer (finally figured out how to stick a picture in here). I've had it a little over two weeks. So far, I'm getting about 17 MPG (this is in the Tennessee mountains near Chattanooga, so that's not bad at all!)

Moose, I actually live in Whitwell (just right down the road from Dunlap). Small world, isn't it?!

Can't see the pics! Sounds like a nice truck. Love the Blue Flame- But as I recall, I never saw any real mountains in Tennessee, or anywhere East of the Misssisssippi.... Just some large hills! Still, not bad mileage for the hills...

Ah, sozzy, I hear ya! Nothing like the "real" mountains--the Rockies are beautiful 'though I have to admit I haven't seen them in about 20 years or so. I need to come up with an excuse to head back out that way!
