Hello, I just joined

Hello fellow Ford fans, or as Gomer Pyle would say, "Hey everbody"!
Yesterday I picked up a '00 F-150 XLT Reg. Cab SB. My wife + I decided to call it Big Red, 'cuz it's red, and the biggest vehicle we've ever owned. I love it.
BR has 83k miles, and was doted upon by the orig. owner. No towing, no bedliner, and no mods. I can't think of a vehicle I've ever left stock for more than a month.
This seems to be a great site for info on maint. and mods. I'm looking forward to sharing info and perhaps meeting some local Ford enthusiasts.
TIA to the sponsors, admin., and members of this forum.

Welcome to FTE jjz!
Congrats on the new truck. Not that I'm partial to red trucks or anything, but it has got to be a fine lookin' truck!

Please check out the Forum Guidelines, the READ FIRST notes and then all of our forums, which are many! There is also a long list of state chapters to hook up with. Have fun and enjoy all we have to offer.

jjz, where in the world are you at? It is helpful if you fill in your profile with vague location details, so we can all see where we got to go to bug you at..

I have a corner in Hope, Az, that I spend time relaxing in, I have a ranch in South Dakota, off the US 85, I have a house in Winamac, IN, and I am trying to sell my house in Oakland, TN. So I am really in four locations..
