Hey guys. Not sure about the meeting in June yet. I am trying to get into a golf tourny that weekend. I have to qualify first so it all depends on that. And no I am not a pro golfer. Im not even that good. I just like to compete.

Slash...Oakhurst area huh? Years ago that was one of my stomping grounds, delane ave off craighead. Yikes that was a long time ago. I drive an 05 FX4 stepside with no mods. I am not sure if I am gonna keep this yet, I am still a Ranger guy at heart. This is only my second full sized p/u.

gotta love a fullsize though, i sure do miss my old 250... but the broncos better as a DD. get another ranger, i really like the new ones, they are built pretty good.

my whole family grew up in oakhurst, shoot, my grandmother was class of 54 at east meck, my father would have been class of 74, if he hadnt left, my bro was class of 98, and me, class of 07!

Haha, I would have been East Meck class of 74 if I would have stayed. I also went to Randolph jr high. Im curious now if I know your dad. I spent alot of time off Mcalway on Craighead road. There is(or was ) a park there, but this was before they changed eastway.(crossing Independence on bridge). Mostly we rode our dirt bikes and when older our road bikes.(motor bikes). My name is Robert Seid. I was one of the hippies there at the time


I really like the Rangers. I had one with 276hp @ the rear wheels.(dyno measured). It was fast and sweet as they come. I had to get a larger truck now , grandkids, so Ill probably stick with the full size.

I go through there at times. My daughter goes to UNCW(Wilmington) so I pass there a few times a year. Cool place, used to go there to race with a friend of mine. Not me racing but him.

Hey Slash, your dads name seems familiar. I think I remember him. Tall , thin and black hair?(in jr highschool) Since I am his age also you probably know memory isnt what it was 35 years ago. Twas long ago..........I hope all is well with yall and mention my name to him and say hi for me.
About the Ranger. Thats what I had, ext cab, but I couldnt get the car seat in the back with the fold down rear seats.
