Thought I'd start a thread to find out how many folks we have here, other than from the US or Canada.

Hey Bootie -

I sure hope that you 4 million people are leaving those 60 billion sheep alone.

Never know about a guy named "bootie".

...from Germany

Hi, we are from Germany. The northwest region, close to the Netherland border.
In this area the country is that flat, that you could see already on Wednesday who is headin` up to your place for sunday-afternoon coffeetime........
No, I am kiddin`!
We own a 1990 Ford F-150 XLT Lariat reg.cab./shortbed with a 300 I6 and 4-speed man.gearbox. Colour of our "big iron" is tan with sidepainting in beige, 2-tone. Has 89 Kmiles on the clock. Or 189 kmiles, or 289, who really knows..... Carries an alu-style campertop.

No probs so far, the car was "wax-flooded" in all the body and the underside. Definetely no rust ! Mileage could be better, takes 15-17 liters per 100 Kilometers (price USD 1.40/liter or US quarter)

Good luck to all you F150 drivers around !

JoJo, Billerbeck, Germany

I live in Switzerland -- close to Zurich. Switzerland is a boring place and bl..y growded. I'm originally from Finland -- less growded, less everything -- except land,lakes,forests,etc -- which I like.
I have my family here in Zurich (wife,2 kids and 4 wolfdogs) plus F-150 2004 Lariat Screw.

Thumbs up another German member

Hello everyone !
I'm from Northwest Germany (Bremen/Oldenburg/Verden area) as well. Ride a F-150, mostly on the weekend. Fuel is too expensive for daily driving the truck.
In the members list I found about 65 people from Germany, but most of them do not state their Location in their Profile, so where live you guys.
I invite all German Enthusiats to reply here, may be some of us can get in touch for technical discussion, having a few beers or whatever.
Dieter, Langwedel, Germany
P.S.: Great forum. Thanks to the people running the forum.
