Hey Waynebo! You joined the Colorado Chapter! It's too cold over there, and the altitude will give you a nose bleed!

C'mon home!

Thanks for the warm welcome Steve!

Well, I've owned my 2000 F250 V10 4WD Lariat for over 2 years now... 2nd owner. It's a SuperDuty shortbed with 8-inch Donahoe Racing lift, Deaver springs, Bilstein resevoir shocks, 17" Welds on 37" BFGs, K&N intake and Banks exhaust (pics to come once I'm clear to do so). Many of the mods were inherited, but I've got a few more planned, hence the reason for joining this board/chapter. My Effie project have been taking a back seat to my house and Bimmer projects, but riding season is here so I got to get the rig ready! Speaking of my Bavarian Baby, the daily driver is an '07 335i with some "slight" mods (pushing 13.5psi!). I want to find more info on here as to what performance mods are best for the V10 -- yes, I am a horsepower freak.

I'm from Orange County, but originally hail from Upstate NY, and I root for my ever-losing New York teams (Go Bills, Sabres, Knicks!). I get my nickname WAYNEBO (used on several other blog boards) from my childhood obsession with Rambo -- yes I wore the headband and sharpened sticks for hole traps.

I'm mid-30's and a proud single Dad -- my little 9yo is the love of my life! A surprise you may find interesting is that my ethnicity is half Korean and half French-Canadian... I still gotta lot of redneck in me! ha.

Glad to be on here, and looking forward to learning and sharing more on our rides.

Well, that's me in a nutshell! (Help I'm trapped in a nut shell)

WayneBo aka Asian Cowboy

You could put a huffer on that 6.8, that 'll get you a few more. Judging from the pictures in the gallery, it has enough to get airborne already. But there really isn't any such thing as too much power, only not enough cash - at least when it comes to my budget.
Well, get yourself up to 25 posts so you can set up your signature and you will be good to go!

Welcome all Noobs!

What's really helpful is addng your signature which includes info about your truck. When you ask questions the respondents won't have to repeatedly ask for general info about it. Be proud of your Ford, tell us what you've got!
