I haven't been here nearly that long, so I don't know the story behind the two dates for you joining. What happened?
Originally the FTE forum was viewed as an email list serve. When they changed to a web based forum we had to rejoin. I did that in Dec 2000. I had to guess when I first joined FTE by thinking back to when I started researching the web to find info and parts for my trucks first rebuild in 1998. I also pulled out FTE emails from my notebooks that I downloaded and printed to verify my join date, which I estimated was about March 1998.
