NEW MEMBER Introduction Thread (NO TECH QUESTIONS)

Hello all NEW users!

I've noticed a lot of new people posting in the OASIS request thread, and while I want to welcome each and every one of you to FTE, I don't want to do it in that thread.

So, WELCOME to FTE!

Whether or not you've recently joined or been lurking for years, POST HERE and introduce yourself!

Everyone else, feel free to post up and welcome our newest members, and be sure to bump the thread every day or two to keep it fresh in everyone's memory.

Also, it will help to notify anyone who subscribes to this thread that another new member has joined up.

Let the party begin! Remember to post specifics about your truck, make a gallery with pics and have some fun!

I've been lurking in the 73-79 forums for a while as I have three of those. Purchasing a 1999 F-250 Super duty with 7.3 this week so I've been lurking here to read what to look for. Transmission woes scare me since this has 235k miles and it's unknown if the tranny has been rebuilt or not.

Im a newb looking for my second 70s f250. I just sold my last one and I want to find a super cab this time around, so I can get my kids in the back. I wanted to contact a seller about this truck but I think I am supposed to have more posts. Does anyone know how many posts I need to use the classified section?

No idea about how many posts it requires to use the Classifieds... I think it's 25 to enable a signature, might be the same for classifieds. Do you have your email enabled?

WELCOME to FTE!

Can you create a gallery with some pics of your truck?

I purchased a 04 F250 4x4 SC in August. Finally created a gallery with a couple low res pics. My old F150 and Expy brought me to this site years ago. Great source of info!!

thanks,
Bill

Hello all,

I'm in the market for a truck, and am looking at a 2004 F350 Dually (yes with a 6.0). I'm a life long Chevy fan, who's decided to join the Dark Side.....

My wife and I trailer a lot, and with 4 kids, 3 German Shepherds, our trailer has gotten larger and larger and my little old GMC Yukon just can't handle it anymore.

Anyway, I probalby won't be contributing too much in the way of technical knowlege, but I sure will be using all of yours!!!

Have a great day.

Rich and Laura
