Welcome aboard. I saw you trying to get into the chat tonight over there (I think it was you).

The old trucks hang out in there on Saturday nights still.

There's the man of the hour

Glad to see you made it Travis.

Travis is a friend of mine guys. You're gonna be seeing a whole lot of my FTE friends in the coming weeks because there has been a lot of commotion between the admin's (namely Ken) and me over there. I guess someone ratted me out for talking about FTF over there and Ken revoked a bunch of my privileges for "using FTE services to promote competing sites". Lots of the guys over there like Travis are sticking up for me and making a fuss about Ken's decision to penalize avid and dedicated members like myself (c'mon, I've got almost 4000 posts in just over a year!!)

Anyways... How do I respond to this without getting completely banned?! I'm recommending MORE of my buddies over here! Get ready for a lot more punks like me, eh Travis?

Enjoy yourself Travis. FTF is much more laid back and I think you'll come to find that the admins here are your BEST friends. Welcome to the chaos brother

Oh man....It is getting deep around here.

Just kidding, but I wondered why you knew everyone that joined in the last few days.

 

[89frankenford]

thanks for the welcomes. im sure ill be on here a lot. oh and GRABBER GREEN AND OLD FORD BLUE RULE!! hahaha

 

[Skandocious]

Ahh yes, everyone on this site has a trademark Travis. They know me as the resident hippie, since I live in California (even though I'm FAR from being a hippie...) Perhaps we can make something of your love of Grabber Green and Ford Blue...

Yes, Travis painted his 300 i6 with Grabber Green and Ford Blue, he thinks its the best thing in the world, lol.

Oh and if you all want more details on the Chris vs. Ken scandal, I wrote a detailed thread about it here:

[89frankenford]

hahaha i tryed to click it but it said i don't have permission to look at it

 

[89frankenford]

and yes did paint my engine grabber green and old ford blue

 

[Brian_B]

It is in the private forum. You are not allowed in yet. I forget how that works, but maybe you have to ask somone. (been here too long)

Its just an age thing is all. The more adult threads are in there and it keeps the kids out. This is a family friendly site.

 

[89frankenford]

but im 21....im STILL not old enough yet?

 

[Brian_B]

I really think you have to ask...go to the main forum page and try to get in that way and read what it says.


It has been way to long since I did that. LOL

EDIT: The lounge says 18+...not sure how a new person gets in.

You have our condolences..
You will definitely find this site is not like FTE on those aspects at all. Suggestions are appreciated here. May not be implemented, but feel free to suggest all the same. We are growing, but everyone has to start somewhere, and help it become more. We will in time.

Welcome to the site! Grabber green? Man, that even hurts my eyes!

 

[bobf100]

Welcome Travis - we're glad you're here. I think you will find this a great group of guys. Post up and post often. Once the admins are aware of your access to the lounge problems they should be able to fix it right away.

Welcome brother!

Merrimac NH, huh?

I'm in Orono for school, but I grew up just north of Worcester, MA (family's still there) and my Grandma lives in Brookline, NH.

Engine paint aside, that truck is about what I'd like if I could afford the gas.

 

[89frankenford]

its actually not bad at all. im getting upwards of 17ish because i rebuilt the entire motor and it runs like a top! its cool to see someone in the NH are. brookline isn't all that far from where i live, only 20 minutes or so

Still significantly less than I'm getting from my Ranger- I get about 24 in the winter, and can get close to 27 in the summer (take the cap off and summer blend fuel).

I drive pretty close to you fairly often, actually- I usually visit my grandmother on my way back to Maine any time I go home, so I take 101 up through Manchester, the cut up and pick up 95 in Wells, ME. Over the summer I'd deliver a van-load of hydraulic pumps to Londonderry every couple weeks, too.
