A dangerous drug that is being mixed into fentanyl is causing those who inject it to develop a rash of sores that resembles a case of flesh-eating bacteria. People experiencing homelessness around Denver can sometimes be seen with these bloody, weeping wounds.

It wasn’t terribly long ago that one could purchase a nice F-Series pickup from the 1990s for reasonable money, but things have certainly changed as old models quickly skyrocketed in value. These days, finding a clean Ford pickup of any kind from the modern era for little money isn’t exactly an easy task, but there are still some decent deals to be found here and there. It’s unclear if this 1989 Ford F-250 will land on that list, but it’s certainly a solid target for anyone in the market for one, regardless.
