Greetings!

Hello all! I just registered at this site today, so I'm just getting my feet wet to see what it's all about. I own a 2004 Ford Escape XLT (wife's car), plus I'm in the process of buying a "classic" 1971 Econoline E-250 with just over 55,000 certified miles. It's a sweet ride for its years, too. Will be great for hauling my wheelchairs around in. Thanks, and I hope to "meet" all or some of you on-line with questions, etc.

Thanks for the Greetings!

Hey Ultramagdan - thanks for the "ups". I really appreciate them. I totally enjoy these sites because of not only the colorful banter between the members, but the amount of information shared, given and exchanged. I belong to a couple of other sites - a Mopar one, to boot (dont shoot yet! My brother has a 440 Duster) - but getting certain types of information there is like pulling teeth. I'm trying right now to decode a "partial" VIN on a 1971 3/4 ton E-250 I'm planning on purchasing. Forget CarFax - if it doesn't have 17 digits (remember the standard was raised somewhere around 1982) then they can't/won't help you. I'm gonna see what I find here. Thanks again,
tom
