Great to see both Joel and Epic back. Both are major contributors to the FTE 6.7 forum. I’ve learned a lot from their many posts and video work.

Epic, I understand your comment about the HPFP fear. Although a few FTE members have had serious trouble with this, the issue seems overstated and in some cases seems to be an issue for tolls to cause trouble.


Welcome back guys!!!

I'm glad your back, we have had nothing but reruns for over a year.
We were in your neck of the woods last year, met some locals the first day we were there and we had a blast.....and we lucked out, the temps. were mild for the first week in June.


That ^^^^ is not me. I just watched....these guys were good.
I did take my Rancher through the 'car wash'



Nite nite!

Ditto Epic, especially when cold.
