I know what that's like.

There should be a "hood flew off" club, I'm in
You know it's coming about a half a second before the wham!

just enough time for a choice word.

Hey guys!! Can I be in the club? My hood didn't fly off, just flew up and slammed into the drip rail. No damage to the windshield either. Glad everyone was okay. If you still need hood hinges I might be able to get them for you. Let me know, Ben

Thanks Ben, I am also a Marine! Remember, there is no such thing as a "Former-Marine"

I am still a Marine at heart. Still feel like going back sometimes. I will never call myself an Ex Marine, just not active duty anymore

You arn't alone, and this is just threads that have been posted on fordification and I'm sure i missed some with my quick search. I have seen it several times myself. It is soooo common.

Mine was my stupid mistake, it was about 3 am or later and I had just gotten done tightening up a fuel line at a gas station and didn't shut it hard enough.
