Been on FTE for a bit now, moved to Texas about 7 months ago. I have zero plans for my truck as far as modifications. It's a mostly stock '05 King Ranch 6.0L. Coolant filter, and Appradio are the only modifications. 128,700 miles, purchased in 2010 with 108,000.

Really appreciate the expert help over in the 6.0L forums. Glad to be in Texas.

Matt

 

Welcome to the fun!


We are glad you are here.

yep, Glad to have you here. join in on our threads. the Texas Chapter is real close to the socializing area of FTE ha ha ha

 

Hmmm. No mods or plans but you list the EGR delete in your sig. You list Sinister diesel. Is that the one from Dennis (ITP / sinister / strictly) or is it that other sinister group?

Where did you move here from? How's the weather here compared to where you came from? And which part of Texas did you come to?

 

Yep, didn't consider the EGR delete. It was MKM Customs. Otherwise bone stock, and that's how I like it.

Moved here from NC, weather in NC is a little less extreme, but we do have the occasional 100+ summer days, and sometimes alot of snow in the winter. I'm in North Texas, north of DFW about 2 hours.

 

matt, welcome to texas. from 1 fellow six-o owner to another, i feel more fired up bout meeting u at our next gtg/ tech day. welcome pal.

 

if ur ever in need of a good mechanic in ur area, look up the user "cheezit". he's the only guy i'll let touch my six-o. he comes highly recommended. he's also very helpful and he knows his stuff. if u got questions, he'll have the answers for u. if u havent got the info sheets, send him a pm wif ur email address. he'll email all the info on the six-o to u.

 

Where in NC? I lived in Fuquay-Varina for many years before moving to western NY (big mistake) and finally Texas.

Dom, didn't know cheezit was around here. He was INCREDIBLY helpful when I did the EGR delete and everything back in 2010 while I still lived in NC. Super helpful. When is the next get-together? Would love to meet him and buy him a beer (or coke) for all the help.

I was east of you, Goldsboro. South east of Raleigh about an hour or so.

 

I have been to Goldsboro a few times.

Welcome to Texas!

welcome to the forum. Im about 2hrs north of you on 287 in Memphis, TX

 

i'm glad he was able to help u. he's been very helpful to me too. he's actually in the DFW area. my father-in-law is in the mckinney area. he's tinking of moving to irving or somewhere around the DFW area. he moved back to texas from GA.

the gtg will depend on robert (plumber01) and the rest of the guys like toreader_diesel, etc. i'm waiting to drive out to the next one too!
