"NACHO", "FIXIN", and "OWN" are three words Yankees seem to have a little trouble with too...
They think a NACHO is somethin with cheese on it, FIXIN' is strickly about repair, and OWN has to do with something you have worked for and earned - in which they partially kee-rect!
An example with all three might be this here:
"BOY! Them are NACHO tools! I ketcha in my garage agin and it's FIXIN' to be OWN!!!"
And of course leave us not fergit:
"I GARINTEEYA..."

Wolfie is right in many ways about FTW. Its geared more towards bling bling instead of ordinary truck owners. I met lots of good people there but the site has went downhill since Ten Magazines took it over. I like this site. Its down to earth & has the tech info I need to keep my truck going. I plan to do anything I can to recrute members to FTE & try to find events to get our local members to go to & meet & show off our trucks. Welcome to FTE A11Budman

Other sites I have seen are "FLASH". You are about what is current only, or what one particular idiot thinks is cool. FTE ain't like that...
FTE is all about "BRING IT ON!"
We can make it run...
