You can also put them on a photo hosting site that allows remote linking and use tags (use the tool that says "Img" in the tool bar)

Thats a good looking truck.
Are those dealer emblems on the cowl? Or Camper Special?

Re: New here, overwhelmed with my new truck
Well .... I think the Camper Special was some badge-engineering from a previous owner, no? Weren’t all Camper Specials built on F250s?

It is a good looking truck though, hoping you get it back with a new heart soon and can enjoy it !

Yeah, the engine is back from Jasper!
I've asked the mechanic to replace any belts, hoses, lines as it goes back in... pretty exciting!
