Well we were able to go look at the truck today. The tow service operator said he didn't think we should try to drive it home, about a 50 miles trip. He said he thought the transfer case was blown. There was a huge puddle of tranny fluid from where they pulled out. So I left it there and will be having it hauled to Midway Ford on Monday. I will let them determine the extent of any damage to the transfer case and transmission.
Truck was filthy and everything that was loose on the inside is gone. Owners manual, gps and all my hand tools I had behind the rear seat. All replaceable and the truck is fixable. I am just so grateful it was recovered and not stripped.
Here are a few pics I took today.
Also our hitch was still in the bed. I was worried they would have taken it too.
I will post back probably in a new thread once all the repairs are completed and I know what all was done. Thanks for all the encouragement and kind words.

SO glad you got it back. Congrats! So a happy ending deserves a comeback on the Dodge/Chevy comment. Good thing you did own a Ford because a Chevy or Dodge would have never gotten stuck so you would have not have found it........:B
Again, very happy you got it back.
