Well, I did arrive late, and since I had never met any of you, and I am not going to ask every table in a busy restaurant if those sitting there are with FTE, so after waiting around for more than 45 min hoping one of you would see the above... Well, I am out of here.
Good meet tonight, good food and conversation as well. Will be in for another down the road.
@USCG- Sorry about the mis-communication, place was loud and I didn't check my phone it until we were cashing out. I have your number locked in for another time, if you need something give me a holler.
If anyone shows up ask for the Ford Trucks guys and they should know who it is, otherwise my hansom face is below. I do wear glasses just not the B.C.'s
Sorry USCG, I was not aware you were going to be there. Usually you can ask the ladies up front about a truck group. Usually that's what we tell them when we are expecting others. This time around I just did it under my name.
If you don't mind though, post up in here a day or 2 before the meet so we are a bit more prepared. With how busy it was I didn't want to reserve a table for a lot of people that weren't going to show up. However, if I know more people are supposed to show up, I'll reserve more seats. Of the place is pretty quiet like Thun Field then I don't mind, we can shift tables around and stuff.

It was my fault that it was a last moment thing, but with my job, I never know if I will be able to attend these types of events. I also did not realize it was just dinner, I figured it was more of a stand around a parking lot and chat trucks type of event. If I had known it was just dinner, then i would have let everyone know, or honestly, I am not sure I would have even attended...
Maybe next time, but that next time will have to be closer to summer, as I am having foot surgery and will be unable to drive for a month or more.

Understandable, and no worries. This won't be the last one .
The original intention was a stand around type deal but it started with just me and Sean(Yahiko) meeting up. And it continued like that for a bit. Occasionally we have a few that join us.
I used to attend mustang meets with my family, we would have anywhere from 10-50 cars packing into a Krispy Kreme shop. It was like a car show every Friday night. That was my vision for the meets but there just isn't enough activity to do that. So, getting together for a meal was the next option. Sitting down, warm, and food. We still talk trucks, and have swapped parts before. Just with the food mixed in.
Made it home OK last night. Truck was unhappy and ran bad a few times.
I think I have air getting into the fuel and also a HPOP leak.
Get this the O-ring I need is only sold on the plug and all the dealers are
OUT OF STOCK.
Oh well I can still do the Air Test on the HPOP system. That is if I
can find my adaptor that is hiding in my garage (looks like a tornado hit the inside).
And I also want to check the fuel pressure at idle and under load.
I did not get over that way today and was sharing the car with my sister.
She was waiting to go visit mom.
I think I found the original HFCM drain plug in my miscellaneous used parts.
But I still can't find the Air Test adaptor in the box it normally lives in.
Damm thing grew some legs and crawled off to hide. I ordered a new one but
I bet it will show up right after the new one gets here.
My Bronco had a pretty shaky drive home. I currently have figured out the window situation on my pickup, I was pretty tired yesterday so I only got so far as pulling the door panel but I saw that I don't ha e to remove the track, just 2 nuts, clean it out, and slip the new window in.
Hey Sean, did you unpack all the tools you were gonna take with you
when you went to help those people up in Canada. I don't know if the
fuel adapter was something you were going to take.
