It remains the same. The rules are wide open and unchanged despite fits of unrest. We do this this way as not only truck owners and drivers, but FTE people as well. We do this out of pure gamesmanship, and sport.
We do this to have fun
We also do this because we love to look on eachothers trucks
You have to be really quick! And wait for the next contest................There are only 10 "slots" per contest, and the first 2 contests filled up within 24 hours!

If I can have everybodies attention for a second please? Thank you.
I have just gotten word back from IB Adrian - yes there are going to a limited number of prizes for the contest. They are specifically one year free "supporter" level memberships at FTE for the first place finishers in each round. Those are the paid memberships that grant access to additional features at FTE such as the the Club FTE Members Only Forum.
Those who are already paying members would recieve a year extension on the membership they already have.
We (the contest committee) may also decide to appoint a treasurer and find some way to pass the hat or something to put together some kind of prizes for the championship at the end of the ten round set. Don't know yet, we haven't talked about it. It just occured to me tonight. It seems like there ought to be a way to do something along those lines though. I can't spend a lot, but I'd be happy to throw some beer money at it if Steve or someone has a handle on a trophy shop and volunteers to manage donations.
But there it is! Confirmed by PM just last evening. NOW who wants to play???
Sir Wolfie, maybe I missed it, but what do I have to do to enter my truck? I'm awful proud of my truck and never miss an opertunity to show it off.
Thanks for the rep, too. I'm giving you one also

Oh and by the way - YOU SIR are the first to receive a twelve month extension to your membership! CONGRATULATIONS!!!
Thank You, Dutch, IB Adrian, Internet Brands, and everyone that have and will participate in the 2009 FTE Online Championship.
It was by chance that I found the first round while "trolling" through all the great information to be found in this forum. While I am a harmless troll, I have attempted to give back to others from what I have learned from all the tremendously helpful people on this forum.
I could have stayed a free registered user but had gotten so much in return the first month of being a part of this place that I wanted to give back a small portion of what I had saved to the site that made it all worth while.
Also there are many, many, people here that embrace anyone who stumbles into a thread as if they were family, without judgment, or prejudice toward them and help them with any question they may have, and give them the answers that they seek.
Most people hide there identities because of the fear of the Internet, which is justifiably so, and then there are so many others who openly share their lives and dreams to a group of people they know only through a Ford Truck web site and possible chance for a face to face "Get together" to form bonds that are usually only seen in small towns or close knit organizations.
That's got to say a lot about the type of place this really is, and I am honored to be part of it and amazed to have been given this award.
OK off soap box....Thanks a bunch, your all the greatest.....
