Hey guys, let's welcome our newest member, Redrocket9.0, to the Nebraska chapter!!

 

Welcome to the chapter!!

 

Thanks guys. Im headed off to my quarterly health coaching for work right now but I'll be back this afternoon to reveal a little about myself. Fordnut, where abouts is the cornfield you're from?

 

Welcome to the forums. i guess I'm not the "FNG" anymore around here so I can change my sig now

 

Crap. I just typed about a 1 page bio and my internet at the girlfriends house (or rather, her neighbor's internet) crashed. Luckily I copied it prior to submitting it so I saved it to a thumbdrive. Guess you'll have to learn my life story later bummer, huh?

 

Hey Redrocket, good to see you here! We're anxiously awaiting your life story!!LOL

 

Ok, I have a keyboard now so i dont have to type on my phone. Well Ill start by saying im happy to by a member of yet another ford forum. I may be new here but Im not new to forums. I also currently belong to allfordmustangs.com, theturboforums.com, fordification.com from when i had my '69 F100, sbftech.com, thefiringline.com for my gun fetish, and others that I dont really visit anymore. I've been infatuated with ford trucks for as long as I can remember, and in love with mustangs since about middle school.

My current truck is actually my first vehicle I "owned". It's changed hands between my mom and I several times during high school and through my career life. Finally I drove it from Wyoming to here, and hopefully it's here to stay. In between I've had a '93 escort GT, '90 Cherokee, '90 Mustang 5.0, '02 Grand Cherokee (rip), '03 Explorer (good riddance), '69 F-100 4x4, '88 t-bird turbocoupe, and now an '09 Fusion, '79 Yamaha XS750 special, and my '88 F-150 4x4 300-6 5sp is back. The ONLY non stock item on the truck is a pretty sweet 5th wheel tailgate I made in high school (even though it doesn't have a 5th wheel hitch). I mainly think it's so cool because I took great care in cutting out the oval ford emblem with a plasma cutter.

Let's see... I enlisted in the Marines out of high school. I was an anti-tank assaultman, Nuke security guard, Designated Marksman on a close quarters battle team, and a mobile patrol team member in Iraq. Spent some time as an exterminator, and now Im a Sheriffs Deputy in _____ County. You'll just have to guess where. Lol. Dont worry, I consider myself to be one of the "cool" ones. By that I dont mean Im cool per say. Im just not a dick. It takes a lot to get ticketed by me. Otherwise that would make me a giant hypocrite.

Oh, I'm a happily divorced father of two beautiful girls, ages 1 and 4.

Whoo. and that took about two days to type. Questions?

 

Welcome to FTE and the Nebraska Chapter. Have fun, and post much.

 

Okay, first question.....Your first name, so we know who we're talking to! Are you originally from Wyoming? I lived in Cheyenne for a year, and Lander for two, moved back my sophomore year of high school. Oh, and where do you live?

 

Oops. Not a very good bio without that stuff.

My name is Tyler.

I lived near Fargo till I was 4, then moved to Belle Fourche, SD for a couple of years, then lived near Aladdin, WY while I went to elementary school in Sundance. Then back up to ND for high school in a town called Kindred, near fargo. Then about 35 places while in the Marines, and finally ended here in Bellevue.

I saw someone in here from VA beach. I went to two different schools near there in the marines. Cool place

 

Tyler, good to meet you. How long were you in the Corps? I was Navy, 85-89, worked on A-7E corsairs. My day was in the Marines, did 35 years, mostly in the reserves.

Damn, you've been all over! Shawn is from VA beach. He wanders in now and then. I think he was just over in the BS thread.
