Thumbs up Find FTE???

I was on the net somewhere, and came across the name-went to the site, read a few threads, looked at acouple of forums, signed up, and the rest is history. I try to help those I can with repair ??-only in areas that I am completely knowledgable, or had previous problems with a good outcome on a repair. I don't like to get into discussions about personal preferences, or brand loyalty to products, but will offer an opinion if asked directly. I looked at the Illinois forum last year or so, you were looking for a Chapter Leader, and the forum was kind of running slightly amok(my opinion)-I was looking to get into the Chapter, by attending meetings(if you do this),or get togethers-I had a full plate at that time, as I was an Officer in another organization. Hope to hear more from you.......

Sorry, was over at the Ranger Forum.. Yeah, I gotta call in to see if we're workin'-I'm a truck driver (local), and if we're all just gonna sit in traffic all day, they figure we might as well sit at home...

Probably got about 3.5/4.5" of white stuff, just enough to make life miserable yesterday-plows were doing a lousy job of cleaning up-in the NW subs of Chi-town, it was bad driving, as I'm a trucker, got stuck trying to make a right turn-woulda been fine ,but the light changed(not plowed at all), and I had a local cop behind me-he stopped traffic so I could get moving-nice guy...just a PITA all day...
