He then told me that the bottom of his battery is 3 feet of the ground in his crown vic. I made him go measure it. He said it is 2 feet 11 inches. I still doubt that.


Me and the Mrs.
I will have to measure mine, in my cop car.
congrats on being a posting guru Josh!

The Crown Vics have bigger problems than battery height.

hey guys, before we move on. Lets remember some of the rules real quick. Yes this is an open chat, but the profanity rules still apply, please don't use the ***** to cover up words, or type out part of a word, and cover the rest in ***. Lets keep this family friendly, and profanity free please.

that is all, please continue with your discussions.

These need to be enforced. Please follow them, and all will be ok.

Real simple, if you have questions, PM me.

You are free to talk about anything you want to, but please keep the following in mind:

No profanity. that includes using the asterisks to cover up a whole word, or part of a word.

No threatening or Personal attacks. Such posts will be reported and removed.

You can post video links, news articles, pictures, or other websites. BUT all links must comply with the FTE rules. (no advertising for other sites, no advertising for sale items, no pornography, etc.)
Such posts will be reported and removed.

If you are new to FTE, and are trying to get help, please, don't hesitate to post in the Chat thread, we will help you get a new thread started, and even be kind enough to help you out here.

If you have a problem with someones posts, there is a button at the top right of the post, it is a red circle with a white exclamation mark, click it, explain your complaint, and it will be taken care of by one of the Admins/Moderators


Remember, the Chat thread can be about anything, but if the rules begin to be ignored, the chat threads may end.

you're fine, just giving everyone a heads up so that Scott (horsepuller) won't get upset with us for breaking rules.

and yes, vbulletin does put in the asterisks, but the FTE rules still ask that you do not use profanity.

I was just playing around...I run a forum of my own, and most times I'm the first one to get after people for breaking rules. Shoot, I -wrote- most of the rules there. lol.

Won't get any arguments out of me here.

i co-run a forum.

never really took off though haha

we have guidelines, and as of now, the 3 members haven't broken a single one yet....



...maybe it's because no one has posted anything in 2 years
