respect the knowledge

I've been reading this web site for awhile, and the knowledge is impressive! So I thought I would join. I hope I can be a asset, I'm 60 yrs young and have built and owned some really cool car's & truck's. While even at 60 I don't know it all. At times in my life I thought I did, older and wiser now and I respect everyone's opinion. What I don't like is putting some else down. Everyone has their idea's an opinion's, what work's for me might not work for you. No question is a dumb question! If you don't ask, how are you going to learn? So if I ask a dumb question, ya I'm dumb! So teach me! Thank's

Let me be the first of many to welcome you to this great place, there is always something to learn from these posts you see here. ln my eyes the only dumb question anyone can ask is a question they do not ask. Better to ask and be called an idiot with the right answer than to figure it out the hard way, that's what this place is for. We watch others make the bad calls from our computers and learn to not do that on our own trucks . But seriously welcome and enjoy your stay and Ford Truck Enthusiasts.

Welcome, and glad to see someone younger join. Us older ones will not be able to help much longer. Wish I was 60 again.

Welcome to FTE, Jus' a gear head. You're absolutely right. Nobody was born knowing everything, it's just that some people learned what others didn't but the nice thing about knowledge is that it costs nothing to share. Welcome aboard!

Tell us about some of the cool cars and trucks you mentioned!
