Cliff was trying to figure out why my name and passwrods wouldn't work and asked if I would try and post and log in at same time..
It worked..
I don't know if the problem is solved. I just do what i'm told.

Hey Boss. Uber over to Houston and pick up my truck. If you bring back to me I'll pack you a handkercheif full of butter and honey biscuits for your plane ride home.

Uber to Houston...? I'm a long way from Houston nowadays. Moved from E. Tx to Central Texas a couple years ago. Nice looking truck tho. Specifics?
6.7 turbo Diesel 91000 miles EGR and Dex delete. 440hp 800 plus torque with out a load hwy get 18 to 20 mpg Ima replace any relays, fuses , servos and connectors that have to do with engaging 4x4. Nothing wrong now but Im not the biggest fan of electric shift so I'll replace everything and keep a set of spares on hand I didn't want duellies on my truck. If the call arises I need that extra grib and weight I have single cab C30 to handle it. Can't wait to get it here.
The same period you were having trouble, I had trouble . My username and password showed up in the boxes above the reply box as usual, but when I went to use the 'upload media' function, I got a message something along the lines of... "You must be logged in in order to use Upload Media files".
Pokey, I have your truck's little brother..

That's a good looking truck. Is it a newer acquisition? General use or towing?
I WASN'T KEEPING ALONG WITH THE TIMES BUT THESE DAY THESE TRUCKS ARE A DOWN PAYMENT ON A FREAKING HOUSE!!!! Been using older stuff and fixing as much as I been using. It hasn't been a money issue but a cheapskate that what I been used too issue.
My little brother bought a F450 last year and I borrowed it a couple time to pick up equipment I purchased at auction. OMG OMG OMG It's like taking a vacation in these new trucks. Comfy heated and cooled seats, super nice ride, nice and quiet drive, so much power and no shifting!!
For me it is a far cry from a leaky 671 detroit smoke machine with a brownie box and vacuum 2spd twist knob on a solid mount seat over sloppy steering and technically no susoension and an engine tucked up under your ass needing an asbestos heat shield around your gas pedal boot and frying you like a roasted chicken. Ah but sometimes you could hear that radio in between shifts and nice level ground.
I'm quite excited to get this truck. Sems strange to me to feel anything about buying a peice of equipment. Always just business. This time it's as much for me as for business. Still writing it off though.
2019 F-150xlt, 3.5 v6 with twin turbo. Just general use. Got tired at looking at $65,000+ new ones and bought this one used. In great visual shape inside and out and runs and drives great. Only had it since late Oct and haven't driven it too much. it's missing the plastic cover over the top of the tailgate and missing the whole jack assy..jack, lug wrench and tool you let the spare down with, and ... the windshiled washers don't work. Wipers work but I don't hear the pump running. Something I may look into later today, and hopefully can access the pump thru the fender well cover. My last new truck was an '08 Silverado and this used one is head and shoulders above that one in appearance and comfort. I realized that, when I rented a Ford F350 U-haul to move out here with. Smooth as glass and comfy as my recliner it was. If you aren't used to the newer Ford trucks, there's lots of little tricks you can access that the owner's manual don't mention.

And all them dang air valves behind the seat and under the dash.... and the 2 miles of plastic lines connecting it all together.. You know there's something wrong with a truck when you have to hook onto a float just to go fuel up otherwise you won't have any brakes..
