Yup towed my dads Ford 54 miles cause the spark plugs pulled out. Of course when he drove it onto the trailer the brakes went out so it went off trailer into back of truck. I had been picking on him how a chevy had to tow a Ford. After I calmed down he joked about this is what a Ford can do to a Chevy. My reply was at least my Chevy can still tow you home after being hurt.

Bigger trailer next time? Good luck on the repair. Sucks to screw up your stuff helping out a fellow man--although, in this case it was your dad so no big deal.

If I had a picture from every F@rd I've came to the rescue of over the years my album on here would be overflowing! lol. Sucks your baby got dinged up in the process but I'm sure she was still more than happy to do what she was built for!

Sorry about your truck. Good that you helped your Dad. Glad to hear no one got hurt.

I know its hard to see but its mostly the tailgate and right side bumper. No frame damage. As for helping my step dad I don't think I could ever turn down a family member in need.
