Just an intoduction

I'm from the Farmington area. For people not familiar with this town, it is south of St. Louis about an hour. I've been around Fords all my life. My first car was a Mustang II Hatchback with a 3-speed 4-cylinder. I wish I had it back. Now days I'm sporting a 96 4x4 Ranger XLT. I'm trying to make it as unique as possilbe. The only thing so far is the camo overhead storage and other camo trim, but I'm changing the camo theme. And engine size, so any advice is welcome. Hey, I'll talk to you all later. Maybe at Sunset Hills.

Welcome to the Missouri chapter. It's good to hear from you. Got any pics of that Ranger? It would be great if you were able to make it to the next St. Louis area meet.

Welcome to FTE!! My mother is from Farmington and I've still got a lot of family there. My grandparents have a farm there (Kinkead Herfords) and my uncle is the judge there in Farmington - Judge Jim Kelly. Also have family in Park Hills and Desoto. I'm pretty familiar with the area.
