No Location

I was just curious on why some of you FORD TRUCK ENTHUSIASTS don't enter your location from where you're posting from?

It's no big deal; just was wondering.

It would be very helpful, especially if some one is wanting to know how to find something like a serial number or part #, if you found out they lived in such and such town and you drive through it everyday that would be so helpful.


Or if they need a tool you had for one simple quick thing and you could stop by and help them with it.

Greywolf,

You would think so.

Also just to get an idea on who is posting from where.

Maybe have something in common with that persons location.

So come-on guys/gals; update your location.

If you want.

But I do need to direct him towards the Northwest Chapter, since we've got such a big contingent in Spokane. (links in the sig).

no doubt. I did that stuff w/in my first 50 posts, just so I could feel cool like all the big dogs that already had it done. Turns out, every now and then, I'll get a PM of someone saying, "Hey, I'm near you! See you around!" It's kinda neat. I also encourage everyone to fill out thier location and signiture w/ truck type.

It' funny when people are responding, how the values and opinions are so similar or different depending on there location. ie Candians = passive // Texas = bigger is best.

Another example is, Johnboy_boomersooner thread "4th of July redneck Fun photos"
If he didn't state that he was from Cameron, OK , I would wonder what the hell is he doing with a handgun killing a wild hog.
In Canada for the most not many hunters I know have handguns to kill wild game?
Where are you from ???
