I am in Ontario. I have a '99 F-150 5.4 that I have had for nearly 3 years, and in November, I picked up an '01 Excursion XLT with the 7.3 PSD. I stumbled upon the FTE site, looked around and joined up a month ago. Mainly looking for tips on the Ex and diesel; but there is a wealth of info to be gleaned from this place!! So, I killed 2 birds this morning; Joined Club FTE, and the SoCal chapter.

I have an 18' TT that I pulled with my '97 F-150 4.6, then with my '99. Soon, I'll pull it with the Ex (probably won't feel it!). I spend a week every year at Carpinteria State Beach with my wife's family. We've been going to Carp now for 16 years. But it won't be too long until I pick up a longer TT. The 18' is just getting too small, but it has served me well!!

I look forward to hearing from you all, and to the G2G to come!!

Don


Welcome to the chapter mate!!!!!!

OK guys... we really have got to get serious with recruiting members. We should really have 200 members by summertime. I know Steve does it and does a fantastic job, but we gotts pitch in!

Let's all remember to recruit! Let So Cal and Hawaii folks know they can join for free! Can't beat that. Plus they'll reap the benefits of our knowledge and banter!

Let's do it or I'll winch your trucks across the 91 Freeway...
