Talking Re: Put your passion to the test. Join the Falcon Fanatics

Judging from the comments and the end product , I am guessing the day was a real hoot ! . Pleased Ford / FPR , have finally realized , and have begun to demonstrate to us all that they are listening , and I really hope , following the out pouring to participate , they stay fat with FPR

When Moffat spoke during his commercial , and hit the noise pedal I was hooked , it's a shame , they didn't have Forsty deliver a similar line , to recapture the heads of those souls sit sitting in the land of H
