Forgot about my home remodel on weekends. Actually thinking about doing it full time. I am always working on projects throught the weekends and have to turn down jobs since I don't have enough time. Tough decision though.

Behold the Power of FORD.

It is really a unique situation that has created such a group. Though the members come from so many different fields we all did have a common bond, our Ford Trucks. The group must be commended though for this common bond was indeed how we came together but it is the unique and great personalities that have kept the group going. Duane is right, when this group is together we have a combined knowledge and experience base that we could probably tackled and overcome any task put in front of us. But let me point out that this is not speculation for it has been proved time after time. Think back everyone and you will see where another member has helped or answered problems that other members have had or have asked about.
