Well Ford Motor Company is letting me go. So, if you know anyone looking for a very nice 05 GT with some choice upgrades tell them to check ebay. The ebay auction starts Friday, September 16th, at 2:00pm.

Why are you being fired, if I may ask?

Not fired. Laid-off. Downsizing. Union workers are soon to be a thing of the past. Nothin' I can do, I'm just a number.

sorry to hear that, i understand what that is about, not me directly but a few buddies who worked in the forest industry where cut because of downsizing. The main reason is the softwood lumber dispute, and a few other factors. I guess they cant call it free trade anymore. they will have to rename it free trade for us but Canada and Mexico have to pay us to sell us there goods. no offence to anyone .

Bummer about the job man, good luck. You should update your ebay posting with the options it has. IUP, Shaker 500/1000, anti-theft, etc...

Good Luck,
Dave...

Thanks, I updated the listing w/ that info. I kinda hope nobody bids on it. I would like to keep it for a bit. But, it's gotta go sooner or later.
