Talking funny idea...

Since everyone on this forum is so close knit we should start like a Ford truck "signal". For example everytime another ford truck is coming down the road we can turn on the hazards or tap the horn a certain amount of times or something. Before you know it, it will be nationwide! The Chevy and Dodge guys will run and try to imitate as usual.

Maybe I have too much time on my hands...

haha I think that's a grand idea, every time I see a Ford I say to myself "Self, I wonder if that guy is a member over there at FTE?"

Still? Years ago we used to wave to other motorcycles but that was awhile ago. Now things seem to be alot different.

Fingers, and guns.

Although, you wouldn't get an accurate account, between confusing people and lurkers.

For some reason, we can spot our guys a mile away. I think the Nwst Chapter is trying to bring new meaning to the phrase "Got lift?"

The Northwest Chapter of FTE
we don't get lost,
we just get found

Well I think I am "flying solo" for Australian FTE members.
Where my farm is I could drive all day on the road and not see another vehicle, let alone a Ford truck or an FTE member.
