Yeah, I am really surprised that the dealer got the truck. They must have really pull someone's arm (John's) to get that there. But the truck didn't stay long and it is something that is truly different. I also think it is funny to find someone else who has one.

don at rhinebeck ford is a roush dealer, he told me he worked real hard to get that truck. they know me there so when i went to look at it he let me take it out for a ride. they said they dont let anyone drive them , but they new i would buy it. and i have no regrets at all in getting it.

How many were made. Any idea?

17 made in the world , they come with certificate of authintisity.only 2 or three were 4 doors.

Actually there were about 6 or 7 four doors but only 2 or 3 that were four wheel drive. But most are two doors and 2wd.

oh i thought the other way. cool i did not like the looks on the 2 door extended cab.lots of room with the 4 door.

I can't believe I have only had the truck for 6 months and I am going into the dealership to get my third oil change done, I have 15,500 miles on it now.

Hey I talked to John today and the gauge recall does not include us because we have roush gauges and he has a few really neat mustangs in stock including a Black Jack.

looks like you get around with it. i dont drive it that much, a guy at work told me he saw a 2 door down in virginia last week. im working late so catch ya later. bill

Well I am up in Oshkosh, WI for the big air show called AirVenture and one of the really big sponsors is Ford Motor Company. I saw an opportunity to get my truck signed by the great Jack Roush (which he owns 3 P51 Mustangs) so he is there every year.

Also last year Matt Kenseth bought a Mooney which is an airplane and so he also showed up.

Here is the result of a little hard work and timing did for me:









Also I found the whole story behind your truck and how your dealer got one (details later), and I found out that the truck in Virgina is owned by a 2star general that works at the Pentagon.

Bill

The story on your truck is that mine while it was in transit went by your dealership on the way to my house through New York. The guy at the dealer got on the phone and started calling around to figure out how to get one of the trucks he saw going down the road. He got in touch with a dealer south of Oshkosh who then but him in contact with John at Benna Ford, and I guess they made a dealer trade or what not and got the truck.

Thats basically it in a nut shell, I talked a lot to the guys at the Roush Booth at the air show and found out some cool things about these trucks and how they came to be.

In other news, there was a fatal crash yesturday at the air show which on the ground 2 P51s collided and the other pilot is fine and its a horrible thing, but these things happen and we can always learn from these experiences.
