Re: Motorcade number Reply #3 – June 10, 2014, 07:58:16 pm Since I got my 1st FT in 1999, and got a 15000 number, it looks like those folks have had at least 3 FTs now, with a number that old. Gotta think they were happy with this one for a long time. Quote Selected

Re: Motorcade number Reply #6 – June 12, 2014, 08:26:52 am Talked to Rodger about his old coach. What a nice fella he is 85 years young. Wasn't to happy with his new coach and told me that he wished he had his old one back. His old one has a couple of issues also. Quote Selected
Re: Motorcade number Reply #7 – June 12, 2014, 08:56:12 am I suspect that anyone who buys an IH is in for a bit of "working the bugs out" time. Plus, so much more complex than ever our somewhat complex FT'sHard to beat a 1997 - 2001 FT - you can choose slide/no slide, all have pretty smog free engines, still valuable enough to justify spending some dollars on upgrades you may want, minimum or no SMOG devices on engines, best quality years and many to choose from due to reasonably high production numbers. Downside is lack of conventional financing (credit unions will often lend on these, plus there is 401k borrowing and home equity bow wowing, both of which would be cheaper than any other source you could find if you have the equity in the account or your house) Quote Selected

He said his new one is in the shop right now parked right along side of his old one. He was such a pleasure to talk to I hope and pray everything works out for him. Quote Selected
