Just read through how this guy posts over in this thread earlier. No reason even trying to talk to him when he conducts himself in such a way.

I would draw special attention to his reply to learning about a fellow members 30 year career:

"I will give you credit for stating you worked as a parts salesman for 30 years that takes ***** to admit although that's like saying you flip burgers at McDonalds. kudos to you. hahaha"

Sorry for the

I would buy a new one, if it was offered with a powerful diesel. But I would probably wait until the 2nd model year came out. For now I'm good for at least another year, most that don't follow excursions can't tell I drive a 10 year old suv.

You chased me on another thread that's the definition of troliing some one. I made 2 assclowns mad because I would not give out the names of those I know who work for ford.
Nice job. Its very easy to make ppl on here butthurt and I did exactly that on that thread. With out trying. That thread showed so much ignorance to enginemperformance in a Eco boosted 5.0 notion that will never happen. Nice job you did there

Negative Ghost Rider. What he did was point out that you are a tool, not troll you.

This is from FTE:

Forum Troll Defined:

3. Forum Troll- An obnoxious user or member on a forum that goes out of their way to make pointless, offensive, or annoying posts and messages. Often these users are labeled as spammers and will post random off-topic junk in many sections of a forum.
Urban Dictionary: defin...rm=forum+troll (third definition fits)


4. Forum troll- Trolls are people who want to get on your nerves. They will usually lurk around the forums and wait for an opportunity to annoy or attack a user. The best way to ignore a troll is not to flame back, but to report and move on. Trolls are no good and should be exiled.


This is from the interwebz:

troll<sup class="lr_dct_ent_hi">2</sup>
trōl/<input height="14" type="image" width="14">
verb
gerund or present participle: trolling
  1. 1.
    informal
    make a deliberately offensive or provocative online posting with the aim of upsetting someone or eliciting an angry response from them.

Ford needs to rehab their suv lineup. The only suvs they offer are minivans with an awd option and an ancient expedition.

Here is my plan:

Large SUV (Excursion, Expedition, Whatever name)
Shorter and longer versions available like current Expedition
1/2, 3/4, and 1 ton options
F150 Engine options in Half Ton
Superduty Engine options in 3/4 and 1 ton
Options Ranging from work truck to Escalade Competion
Let SVT have it and make something 4wd and cool

I would love a smaller suv on a frame as well, but that is unlikely to ever occur again.

I can see you like drama. Just FYI, FTE isn't like other forums. We strive to treat each other in a manner like you would if you were talking face-to-face with them. In other words, we don't allow or tolerate keyboard warriors who like drama, personal attacks, or flaming. Call us different if you want, but we're special like that.

Based on your post in another thread, you say you're "out" which means you will no longer be posting at FTE. That is probably a good idea because if you wanted to keep posting here, you would have to change and comport yourself to fit within the Guidelines set forth by FTE.

If you change your mind, and decide to come back to FTE, please keep this in mind.

Stewart

Yes, as soon as we figure out how to convert hydrogen to helium in a nice, controlled exothermic reaction.

Say what you want about DEF, that 6.7 diesel is a MONSTER. I towed 80,000 lbs with a 2011 F350 SRW, up and down and round the hills in North Dakota. At 60mph.

I would LOVE to have one of those in my Ex.

Calling bull on that one. That is more than 60000lbs over its towing capacity. I have no doubt the truck could pull that flat, but you didn't tow that on a trailer. No trailer that is able to be hitched to a pickup, or a dumptruck for that matter, is going to be rated for 40 tons. That is purely heavy duty tractor trailer weights.
