NEW MEMBER Introduction Thread (NO TECH QUESTIONS)

FTE Legend
I'm Logan, 32 years old and I operate a landscape design and build business in Victoria, BC. I own a '08 F350 and a 99 F550. Just got the F550 so can't comment much but my 350, which is my first super duty, is an absolute monster. Completely stock, sometimes I load it right to the rails with aggregates and you can barely notice. The loader operators at the cities municipal gravel yard are constantly telling me that no other truck in town can haul like mine, not sure what the secret is but Im not asking questions. I'll tow a 14' steel dump trailer and scale in at 13,000 lbs on a regular basis, the truck is unfazed. I have owned it for 10 months now and it still impresses me every time I put it to work, love it! I'm completely sold on Super Duties and with the purchase of the 550 have committed to Ford as my fleet vehicle of choice.
Looking forward to picking the brains of some members here for tech issues and hauling tips.

Hello from the west coast of Canada guys!
Just registered here and enjoying the forums! I have to admit i was a chevy man all my life until I bought my 2012 F-350 superduty with the 6.7 and man have i been impressed! I just started doing some mods and cant wait to read up on what everyone is doing with their 2012's
I still have another 30,000km's until warranty is up so no MAJOR mods yet but i gotta start somewhere right?

New user here from Calgary Alberta, been a number of years since I last owned a Ford truck. I just recently (last Friday) bought myself a 2006 F350 SD Lariat SRW with a 6.0 diesel. Relatively low mileage on this truck (204,000KM) Bought mostly to tow our travel trailer (24 foot StarCraft Autumn Ridge.) I am looking forward to having the ability to hook up to the trailer and not have to worry if I am going to make it up the next incline in the road.
Anyways, I look forward to the forum and doing research on here with any of the issues that may arise. So far some of the issues that I have come across have been resolved on this forum.

Im coming over here from over there. Never owned a ford but its time in life to try one since I owned the other Brand's. Its hard when you have a 1940 gmc one ton flatbed,1951 gmc fire truck and a 1951 Chevy dump but some things need to be done. Soon Ill be taking delivery of a 15 super duty xl reg cab long box 4wd with some functional options and trading my 2014 gmc Sierra reg cab long box 4wd.
