    Rick and I had a fun (and long) day on Sunday. Rick had wanted the car since I posted it for sale and we ended up wheeling and dealing on it LATE Saturday night. Turns out he had an F150 for sale ... and I was looking for an F150 ... so he threw the truck into the deal as a partial trade to sweeten the pot ... the rest is history.

    We met at 1:00 PM in Mobile, AL .... had a Steak for lunch, swapped vehicles and headed back home.

    My son Colton went along for the final ride in the Maverick ... and the first ride in our new truck .... Rick has some pictures that Colton took for us once he gets them off his camera ....

    Thanks Rick ... enjoy!

    I agree 100%. Hope to see it around sometime. Nice of you to bring up the Texas Maverick population while simultaneously bringing DOWN the Georgia population:D
