While I have not made it to the Fall meet before, if it is like the Spring meet, it is a general show, with an accent on swap meet, rather than a strictly truck show. It would be a great meeting place for some of us in the northern reaches who can't make Atlanta this year. If any of you are interested, let me know, and we'll get together Saturday the 12th. If we can't all get together at the same time, look for a "well fed" guy with light brown hair, a reddish beard and a "Grover" t-shirt in the vicinity of a Tempo and a Kelty tent, or somewhere in the swap area looking longingly at something he can't afford! - -- Don Neighbors '54 F250 Named Grover "Any dropped tool or part will automatically fall into the most inaccessible part of the vehicle." grover == FTE: Uns*bscribe and posting info www.ford-trucks.com/faq.html ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 30 Aug 1998 08:26:48 -0500 From: Steve Stavos Subject: Re: FTE 97up - suspension recall DMonte4120 > > I had read the other day that this was on 4x4 models only....right? > == FTE: Uns*bscribe and posting info www.ford-trucks.com/faq.html yes, the recall notice only mentions 4x4's == FTE: Uns*bscribe and posting info www.ford-trucks.com/faq.html ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 30 Aug 1998 19:28:37 -0400 From: Ken Payne Subject: FTE 97up - ADMIN: Web site down for upgrades The FTE web site will be down for approximately 1.5 hours for upgrades.

Palmer" Subject: FTE 97up - Bedliner Quality Does anyone have any comments on the quality of spray in bedliners? I am considering spraying the bed in my truck, but having a hard time deciding on which one to go with. I have visited places like Rhino, Line-X, Toff, Speedliner and have gathered brochures and samples. They all have their sales pitch that they give ya. Just wondering what experiences you all have had. Thanks in advance Ron == FTE: Uns*bscribe and posting info www.ford-trucks.com/faq.html ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 31 Aug 1998 00:00:51 EDT From: BigFords1 Subject: Re: FTE 97up - Bedliner Quality I got a factory installed bedliner on my '98 F-150.
