Is anyone interested in meeting up once every 2 or 3 months? Something like a Alaska Ford Truck Club.
Been searching for an existing one, but nothing found yet.

just a bit huh :-P

I actually don't think there are enough interested and devoted members up here to make it happen. I read through an old thread from 5 or 6 years ago when they tried this idea. members too far spread out across the state, with too many different ideas of fun. mix in the coordinating of schedules and I think it's busted before even off the ground.
I need to go move to Oregon or Washington for that kind of thing

The Oregon chapter has a GTG once a year in Condon at Don's place. There may be others. Most of the chapters have the same problem unfortunately likely because of the distance between each other. I've only met 2 guys on here so far..

after driving a new 2016 Super Duty for a whole day... (rental- though sure beats an economy car!)


I am ready to have my truck back..


Big Yella is in shop due to being backed into and needing body and paint..


Gas F250 don't have the power of my F350 diesel,
it's light in the rear - so on highway it jumps (skips?),




Do like the square concave blind spot mirrors, though
and the turn switch-- click on, click off.. either direction of turn

Good afternoon to you, and all the other local members.
