Thumbs up Moving to Orlando

Hello all,

My new job's relocating me from West Texas to beautiful Florida.
My '06 F-250 PSD CC FX4 and I will be there on the 7th. Oh yeah, the wife's coming too!
If any of you guys have any input on points of interest, performance shops/ areas to visit (or avoid), I'd appreciate it. Thanks guys, I'm really looking forward to moving out there and getting out of these damn tumbleweeds!
See ya'll soon!

-Ray

HI Ray and welcome to Florida.

Sorry, I can't tell you much about the Orlando area. We do our best to just stay in the forest. Steve & I are about 1 1/2 hrs north in the Ocala area and love it here.

Hello Ray,
Have you got here yet? I'm in Lakeland Florida. I'm just west of Disney. I'm a native of Florida (MIAMI) i came up here 95. I've been to Texas and i can say that the highways are the and heat is too. Well i'm building a 72 F100 Sport Custom and FTE has been help to me. Also you'll be close to Old Town in Kissimee just around the corner of Orlando. They always have alot of Old Car and Trucks meet there. Again welcome to Florida.
