@ATS Junior, you have fan mail sir

Matt, Great idea I love reading all the positiveness!

I have been on many forums and this has to be the best, BY FAR. Most everyone is here to help and share info and experiences. We get to know each-other through the trucks but it extends further then that it's a nice online family. I can't think of anyone off hand that has helped but I know plenty have over the years.

Keep it up guy's and gal's!

Matt,


I think this is a great idea you have started.


Thanks to the moderators for doing a great job.


This site is one of the most helpful due to the fact that there are a great bunch of people who contribute and help out when someone is having problems or have questions.


Rob

Thanks bud, I hope it'll continue to roll over for a while but I doubt that'll happen.

The whole premise behind this was to give an avenue for thanks and public appreciation. You never know when a simple 'thank you' or a short sentence expressing gratitude could help turn someone's day around.

Thank you for the kind words! It was my pleasure to be able to help you out.
While I can't post as much as I used to, I'm still here and willing to help in anyway I can. If anyone finds themselves on I-35 between Dallas and Austin, you know how to get in touch with me.
Thanks Matt for putting this together and helping make this forum the best on the planet.

Bunch of great guys on here. I always thought it was amazing how people who never have seen one another can take the time out of their day to help other members on the issues they are having. Just from being on here for a few years I can tell how strong this community is!

Yep this is a great forum. form the donations I've received from charitable folks in my build log, to the general "willing to help" attitude I have seen in various threads.

There is a reason I have been a member of this community since 2005, FTE is a great place to be.

Great thread Matt!
Too many folks to list that I owe thanks to. I can say that this community is more like a family than any other I have been a member of. I feel bad when I don't have an answer for someone's problem.... and it makes me feel great when I can give someone a piece of advice that actually worked out for them. Oh yeah... Stewart does a great job at moderating this board! I already retired from his "day job".... I don't want this one! :-)

Fantastic idea!

I wish to thank @Immortal_Ben for all the blood, sweat, tears, and made-up swear words put into my truck over the years.

OK OK, really though I can't begin to remember the exhaustive list of fine people who make this such a great place to hang out. I know the idea is to tag people, but I REALLY want to get off of here and get in the shower.

Here's to a bunch more years of hangin with my Ex buddies!
