LOVE THIS FORUM!!!



I am probably registered on no less than 20-25 forums between my Jeep, my four wheeler, and my Excursion. I just wanted to say that this is by far the best forum of any that I have ever joined or even just browsed.

The wealth of information; speed of response, and general good willed brotherhood is overwhelming!

Thanks to all!!

+1 - being a Newbie to the world of Domestics and especially a diesel, I greatly appreciate the support of this forum. Very patient and helpful for newbies like me.

got to agree , been here for a few years now , and although im from the UK i have felt more than welcome.

I have had some great help on here and having even more at the moment.

Me and the Mrs are hoping to retire to the US when its the right time , may be a few years or probably a decade or more , but would love to meet up with some of you guys on here and say a personal thank you when we can.



oh and sddesigns , i want that sticker in my rear window.(but with international chapter instead)
that thread made me feel , well , you know , you guys (& gals) are tops !!
keep it up , hope to meet some of you one day

GREAT thread; thanks for the link!

I belong to the Jeep brotherhood, specifically those that build & crawl. I have been a diehard Ford man for a long time but I had no idea that the FTE brotherhood existed until I found this forum.

TO ALL!

Tom

Dig the forum for sure!

I come from the mustang world where there were a few really good forums, but this one kicks butt!

I can't agree more. I found a ton of information on this site before I bought my Ex and since then, I have found even more info on a couple of things that were not working on my new Ex. This forum rocks

Marcus, if you become a 3 year supporter, you get an FTE Sticker and T-Shirt....

When I joined FTE 7/08, by the following month this site had saved me hundreds of dollars on things I could do myself, so I felt that I wanted to give something back and became a member sponsor. I didn't do it because it elimniated the ads I did it because of the people and the place that it was.

I do feel like we are one big family here at FTE, that is why I wanted to be as involved with it here in every way I could. I became our state chapter leader last October and am having a great time meeting all the members at different GTG's (get togethers) for just having a lunch or working on each others trucks.

Anyone here if you haven't already please join your local state chapter, it doesn't cost anything and you'll find people around the corner or across the state with the same interests as you.

To answer your question about the logo, I designed it last year and that was the one that the chapter memebers voted on.

I 'm selfish. I just wanted the dang t-shirt!

Nah, really I just could not take the ads any longer. I love this site so much that it is my home page and I spend over two hours a day here.

The info on modifications, maintenance, and capabilities is immense. Thsi is the central hub for finding out anything on the Ex.
